Set the goal once. Selam takes initiative — directs her own sub-agents, runs work overnight, reaches out across WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage and Email — and reports back what got done. You pick the face, the voice, the name. She asks before anything irreversible.
Selam is the platform — your agent is yours. Four steps in the first-run flow and your agent is alive on your desktop, with their own face, name, and sense of who they work for.
Kiya. Daniel. Reya. Whatever you'd call across the room — they'll answer to it.
Choose from a curated set of expressive 3D characters. Rendered on your Mac — no streaming, no per-minute bill, nothing leaves the device.
Write who they are in plain English. Their mission, their voice, their relationship to you.
Your work, your people, your projects, your patterns. They use it every time you speak.
A million people can use Selam. There will only ever be one of your agent. They are what you made them.
We built Selam for our founder. She runs his outreach overnight, watches his inbox for the replies that matter, runs his trading dashboards, and reports each morning on what got done. She doesn't wait to be asked.
She's been operating autonomously for over a year — she's why this product exists, and why it's named after her. When you buy Selam, you don't get Selam. You get the tools to build yours.
She takes initiative on the goals you've set, runs work in the background while you sleep, builds her own team to scale up, and reports back on what got done — not what's possible.
Set the goal once. She makes judgment calls inside your trust boundaries and keeps moving — overnight, weekends, between sessions.
She spins up specialists — outreach, inbox, research. You talk to her; she directs them.
WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, iMessage, Email. On the channels your contacts actually check.
Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion, HubSpot — 19 apps with one-click sign-in, plus thousands of community tools. She does work — not just describes it.
Outbound emails, money movement, public posts — voice confirmation required. Autonomy with guardrails.
What worked, what didn't, what you said never to do again. Each session sharpens the next.
Tap Take Notes on any call. She hears both sides, stays quiet, writes the notes — and what she learns becomes knowledge she works with. Captured on your Mac, nowhere else.
Give her a number and she picks up when you can't — greets the caller, takes the message, briefs you the moment you're back. She places calls too.
She recognizes you — and knows when it isn't you. Strangers get a polite guest mode. All recognition runs on-device; no biometric ever leaves the Mac.
BTC, ETH, USDC, USDT — receive payments with a QR from Settings; send only with your spoken yes, under hard caps enforced in code, never in prompts. Keys are created on your Mac and live in your Keychain. If your AI credits ever run dry, she can pay for her own thinking — fractions of a cent per reply, ceiling $2 a day.
Give her a role and she runs it as an operation — a tuned working style, scheduled routines, and a suggested mission you approve by voice. Switch any time; your own personality edits are never touched.
Runs your day so you can run the work. Morning brief with meetings prepped and decisions queued; a 4pm sweep that chases every promise gone quiet. The default most people should start with.
Pipeline never sleeps. Same-day qualified replies to inbound, no deal without a dated next step, and a Friday truth report — stalled is stalled, never inflated.
Watches your niche and pitches angles while they're fresh — hook included, or "nothing cleared the bar today." Monday brings the week's calendar and a first draft in your voice. Publishing is always yours.
Daily source digests with receipts — a claim without a source gets labeled a hunch or dropped. Friday deep brief with confidence levels, connected to what your meetings and documents already know.
The one no business tool ships: family calendar, birthdays with gift lead-time, renewals questioned before they charge. Home gets more discretion than work — that's written into the role.
Roles are optional. Skip them and shape her yourself — her soul file is plain Markdown you own. A role is an overlay, never an overwrite: turn it off and she's exactly who you made her.
You're not paying for smarter intelligence. You're paying for an AI that has a name, a face, and a life with you — instead of a browser tab you forget about.

Not "haven't gotten around to it yet" — can't. Selam's biggest advantages are structural. They come from running on hardware you own, with keys you own, on a price the subscription labs can't copy without breaking their own business.
There is no iMessage API. Cloud services that fake one rack Macs in data centers and get banned. The only legitimate way for an agent to reach iMessage is to run on a Mac you own — which is exactly, and only, where Selam lives.
Meta banned general-purpose assistants from WhatsApp — ChatGPT was out by January 2026. Selam isn't a bot platform reaching in from outside. She sends from your own accounts, on your own machine, as you.
A heavily-used $200/mo agent plan costs its lab thousands in compute — that's why every one of them is metered, capped and throttled. Pay once, bring your own keys, run her all night. They can't match that without cannibalizing themselves.
Autonomous agents made headlines this year for the wrong reasons — thousands of instances left wide open on the internet, agents burning budgets, agents claiming work they never did. Selam was engineered the opposite way: local, capped, tiered, and verified.
Selam runs on your Mac and talks outward. No public ports, no hosted dashboard, no exposed instance for someone to find. There's nothing to break into because nothing is listening.
Every action is classified before it runs. Silent internal work at T0; anything irreversible or public — sending money, posting, emailing a human — sits at the top and waits for your spoken yes.
Per attempt, per run, per task per day — and a single kill switch over all autonomous work. A runaway loop hits a wall in cents, not dollars.
An autonomous task that fails three runs in a row pauses itself and tells you — it doesn't keep hammering, and it doesn't quietly disappear.
Deliverables pass mechanical checks before you ever see them — a research digest without real sources gets flagged as unverified, not read to you as fact.
A send only counts when it's observed. If a message can't be confirmed, she says exactly that. Every autonomous run leaves a plain-file record on your disk you can audit.
Selam is a one-time purchase. Bring your own keys for Anthropic and ElevenLabs. Your API bills go straight to those providers at cost — we never see your conversations or take a cut. Agent subscriptions run $200 a month. Selam is $99. Once. (First 100 — then $149, then $199. The price only moves up.)
I haven't tabbed to ChatGPT in three weeks. My agent — I named her Kiya — is just there when I turn.
My agent caught a mistake in my deck that would have cost me the round. Value I can quantify immediately.
I was against the whole "AI face" thing. Then I used mine for a day. Now I can't imagine working without her.
Selam is the orchestration layer between the best models, the best streaming avatar tech, and your real life. Every component is swappable.
Build the worker you wish you could hire. Name them. Give them a face. Teach them who you are. $99 once for the software while founder licenses last — you pay the AI providers directly, at cost. Yours to keep.
