What is Claraverse?
ClaraVerse is a privacy-first, open-source AI workspace that replaces ChatGPT, Midjourney, and N8N in one unified application. It allows users to run AI locally on their device or use cloud-based inference with TEE-protected providers that ensure hardware-level security. The platform supports both self-hosted offline operation and cloud sync, giving users complete control over their data.
Key features include Natural Chat for intelligent multi-agent conversations, Smart Agents that let you build custom AI agents using natural text and connect them to tools/APIs, Clara Memory for personalized responses across conversations when cloud sync is enabled, and Private AI with TEE-protected cloud inference where data runs in secure enclaves with zero server-side storage. The platform supports over 50 integrations including GitHub, Slack, Notion, Discord, PostgreSQL, and browser APIs.
ClaraVerse is designed for privacy-conscious users, AI developers, enterprises building local AI systems, and anyone tired of AI tools that merely chat without taking action. It works on desktop, browser, and mobile (iOS/Android) with cross-device sync. The tool supports any model including Llama, Mistral, Claude, GPT, Grok, Gemini, DeepSeek, and all OpenRouter models, with both local LLM chat powered by LLama.cpp and cloud model access.
The platform is completely open source and free for both cloud and local versions. It includes a visual workflow builder similar to n8n/Zapier but tailored for AI, built-in tools for PDF/PPT/XLSX reading and creation, isolated code execution with dependency management, image generation with Stable Diffusion, and task-tracking for background jobs. Users can deploy agents as standalone apps and every workflow becomes an instant API endpoint.
Claraverse pricing
Pricing model: Freemium
ClaraVerse is 100% open source and completely free for both cloud and local versions. There is no paid tier or subscription. The only difference between cloud and local is that the cloud version includes TEE-protected providers for hardware-level security. The cloud version is currently free as an experimental offering with limited capacity since cloud providers charge the developers for usage. Users can also bring their own API keys (BYOK) for Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and other providers, using their existing accounts and billing through Clara's unified interface.

Frequently asked questions about Claraverse
Is ClaraVerse free?
Yes! Clara is 100% open source and free — both cloud and local. The only difference is that the cloud version includes TEE-protected providers for hardware-level security.
What is TEE and how does it protect my data?
TEE is a hardware-secured enclave where your data is processed in encrypted memory. Even the cloud provider cannot access your data while it's being processed. It's like having a private, locked room inside the data center that only you have the key to.
Does ClaraVerse support cloud sync across devices?
Yes! Clara offers secure cloud sync. Your conversations sync seamlessly across devices through encrypted cloud storage - your data stays encrypted in transit and at rest.
Is ClaraVerse available on mobile?
Yes! Clara is available on iOS and Android. Your conversations sync seamlessly across all your devices with encrypted cloud sync.
Which AI models does ClaraVerse support?
Clara supports a wide range of models including GLM, GPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), DeepSeek, and all models available through OpenRouter. You can use local models when self-hosting or access cloud models via the cloud version.
What is BYOK in ClaraVerse?
BYOK lets you connect your own API keys for Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and other providers. Use your existing accounts and billing through Clara's unified interface.
Is the cloud version really free?
Yes! The cloud version is currently free as an experimental offering with limited capacity, since cloud providers charge the developers for usage. They encourage users to support them so they can keep providing unlimited free access.
How is ClaraVerse different from ChatGPT or Claude?
While those services process your data on their servers, Clara runs AI in Trusted Execution Environments where your data stays encrypted. Plus, with zero server-side storage, your conversations exist only on your devices.
Do I need internet to use ClaraVerse?
Yes! Self-hosted Clara runs 100% locally with no internet required. Cloud users need connectivity for cloud inference, but your data is still protected by TEE and encryption.
Can I build automation workflows with ClaraVerse?
Yes! ClaraVerse includes a chat-centric workflow builder like n8n or Zapier but tailored for AI. You can chat your way through building workflows, ask questions, create, and iterate. Every workflow becomes an instant API endpoint that can be scheduled daily or hourly.
