Description
Put an AI Agent in your pocket and unleash true intelligence anywhere.
Most AI chat apps on the market are just simple conversation boxes. Palvia is completely different. It is a full-featured, native AI Agent platform running directly on your iPhone. In Palvia, every Agent has its own "soul", memory, and custom skills. They don't just chat with you; they can execute code, navigate websites, and run automated background tasks.
Palvia turns your iPhone into a portable AI command center with zero server setup required.
Core Features
- Multi-Agent Architecture
Read more
Say goodbye to generic bots. You can create multiple unique AI Agents and define their behaviors using flexible Markdown configurations for their SOUL (personality), MEMORY, and USER (your profile). Agents can even generate and manage sub-agents to collaborate on complex workflows.
- On-Device Code Execution
Turn your device into a mobile code library. Palvia features a secure, sandboxed JavaScript interpreter. Your Agents can write, execute, and evaluate code locally to solve problems. You can also save and manage useful code snippets for future use.
- AI-Driven Web Automation
Equipped with a built-in browser, Palvia allows Agents to navigate web pages, click elements, fill out forms, and extract data autonomously via Function Calling. You always maintain control: a live status banner shows when the AI is browsing, and you can manually take over at any time.
- Multi-LLM Provider Support (BYOK)
Bring your own API key. Palvia is fully compatible with any OpenAI-format API endpoint. Seamlessly switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or even locally deployed models like Ollama. Enjoy real-time typewriter effects with full SSE streaming support.
- Smart Context & Infinite Memory
Never worry about your AI losing track of long conversations. Palvia features an automatic context compression engine. When a conversation exceeds token limits, it automatically extracts summaries and injects them into the system prompt, giving your Agents continuous long-term memory.
- Powerful Tools & Scheduled Cron Jobs
Empower your Agents with an installable Skill system and robust Function Calling capabilities. You can even schedule system-level Cron Jobs, allowing your AI to wake up in the background and handle routine tasks automatically.
- Seamless Apple HealthKit Integration
Transform your AI into a personalized health and wellness companion. Palvia integrates directly with Apple HealthKit, enabling your Agents to securely read, analyze, and record your health metrics. You can simply chat with your Agent to log your daily water intake, record a workout, or ask it to analyze your step counts and sleep trends to generate customized health insights - all powered by your chosen LLM. (Note: Health data is only processed during active conversations and is routed exclusively to the API endpoint you personally configure, never to our servers.)
- Absolute Data Privacy
Your data never touches our servers. All chat logs, Agent configurations, and memories are saved 100% locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. Your AI and your data belong entirely to you.
Palvia is the ultimate tool for AI enthusiasts, developers, and productivity seekers. Download now and start building your personal AI Agent empire!
