Tavian AI
Status: ResearchMeet Tavian. Intelligence that grows with your world.
An exploration of private AI designed to remember, understand and adapt, while keeping people in control.
What Tavian is
An evolving private AI ecosystem, not a product you can buy.
Tavian is the named AI companion and research platform at the heart of the CyberFoxX vision. It is where we explore what household AI could look like if it were designed around privacy, memory and human control from the start.
The long-term idea is that each household develops its own distinct model, memory and interaction history, without surrendering intimate personal information to a centralised corporate database.
The home is the trust boundary. Tavian is a research platform under active development. It is not currently available as a commercial product.

Context, sensors, memory and actions.

How Tavian is intended to think
Step through one conceptual evening, from sensing to a human-approved action.
Step 1: Sense. Light in the living room drops at dusk, and a presence sensor shows someone is home.
Research areas
What Tavian is being designed to support.
These are research directions. Some are being prototyped in the lab; others are early concepts.
Persistent household context and memory
Remembering preferences and routines so people don't have to repeat themselves.
Personalised interaction
Adapting tone, pace and detail to each person in the household.
Natural-language interfaces
Talking to the home in plain language, by voice or text.
Environmental awareness
Understanding light, temperature, occupancy and other conditions.
Sensor and smart-home integration
Working with household sensors and automation systems over local protocols.
Local knowledge retrieval
Answering questions from the household's own documents and notes, locally.
Edge-device orchestration
Coordinating work across edge AI processors around the property.
Computer vision and camera events
Analysing camera events on local hardware, with household-controlled retention.
Routine and preference learning
Suggesting routines based on patterns, for people to approve.
User-approved actions
Proposing actions and acting only within boundaries people set.
Privacy-conscious intelligence
Keeping intimate household information inside the home by default.
Optional external integrations
Connecting to outside services only when the household explicitly chooses to.

Tavian AI Core
Status: ResearchThe research AI companion that interprets context, recalls household memory and proposes helpful actions.
How it contributes
- Local language models and retrieval
- Agent orchestration
- Human-approved action planning
Safeguard: Runs on hardware the household controls.
A note on this website
This marketing website is completely separate from any future Tavian platform. It does not collect household data, run Tavian, or send anything you type to an AI service. The only information it receives is what you choose to send through the contact form.
