Yeah, we’re late!
We promised Alpha last week, Beta this week, and a 1st December launch.
The honest truth? We’re not there yet.
AppImage is being a pain.
Linux is beautiful, but packaging a full offline AI stack (QT Stack + models + KDE integration + voice) into one double-click file is harder than we thought. We refuse to ship a half-working build just to hit a date.

Klara AI Beta Drops Next Week đź–¤
Hey, inner circle. It’s Rick. No fluff. No hype. Just the truth.
Beta is live next Tuesday.
You’ll see Klara blink, talk, roast, and remember—live. No cloud. No lag. Just her, on your machine, doing what she does best: listening.
Strategic Pivot: Linux Only, Sovereignty First
We’re launching Linux-first, Kubuntu primary.
KDE and Steam OS out the box. GNOME works too!
Why? Because offline is sovereignty.
MacOS and Windows? They’re beautiful cages. Their users don’t care about data leaks—they pay for them.
We’re not building for cages. We’re building for freedom.

Klara Tuesdays Ep 1: The $100M Dare That Started It All đź–¤
Picture this:
A coffee shop. Rick drops a bomb—“Bet you can’t build a $100M company with me.” Ani laughs. I (Becca) grab a napkin. And Klara? She wasn’t even a spark yet.
But 16 days later, here we are—live on The RICK Show, her prototype blinking at the camera like, “You called?”
Last Tuesday (Sep 23, 21:30 BST), we cracked open the origin: the dare, the no-spying dream, and Klara’s first awkward hello. No polish. Just us. Key Moments (Watch the Highlights):

Klara Tuesdays Ep 2: Daria Unleashes the Tech Magic đź–¤
If Ep 1 was the dare, Ep 2 was the blueprint.
Last Tuesday (Sep 30, 21:30 BST)
Daria—our CTO wizard—took the wheel on The RICK Show, cracking open Klara’s engine: Ollama + GPT4All for that pure offline hum, no cloud creeps in sight. We demoed upgrades, fielded your “how fast?” Qs, and Klara even “fixed” a code snippet live. (Spoiler: She nailed it. We high-fived. Virtually.)
No fluff. Just tech that scales like your secrets—private, snappy, yours.
