Local AI as a first-class capability
Explore local AI working naturally with user-controlled tools and workflows.
LONG-TERM DEVELOPMENT
Nyx OS
The long-term future of the Nyx ecosystem.
A future computing environment envisioned around local AI, user control, privacy-conscious design, modular software, and deeper integration between Nyx technologies.
Read the walkthrough
1. Watch the Lubuntu foundation initialize, the desktop identity transform into NYX OS, and the tagline LOCAL. PRIVATE. YOURS. appear. 2. Open Files and select three sample project documents. 3. Ask the proposed Nyx desktop avatar for a summary. 4. Review read-only access to the selected files. 5. See an illustrative local-AI response. Nyx OS remains long-term development with no public release date.
WHY NYX OS
A direction broader than one application.
Nyx began as a local-first AI platform, but the long-term vision extends beyond a single application. Nyx OS explores what could become possible when AI, privacy, user control, applications, browsing, and system tools are considered together from the beginning.
Integrated Nyx ecosystem
Long-term coordination between Nyx, Nyx Browser, future first-party software, and operating-environment capabilities.
User control
Important behavior should remain understandable and controllable instead of relying on opaque automation.
Privacy-conscious foundations
Privacy, security, transparent permissions, and explicit network behavior are architectural concerns.
Local-first data
Prefer local processing and local ownership where practical while identifying features that require connectivity.
Modular architecture
Clear boundaries, replaceable components, and controlled integration inform the long-term direction.
Compute awareness
Future exploration may give users clearer visibility into local resources used by AI and demanding workloads.
THE NYX ECOSYSTEM
Independent today. Connected by a long-term direction.

Nyx OSLong-term integrated computing environment
Nyx and Nyx Browser remain standalone Windows-focused products and do not require Nyx OS. Cross-platform and future platform work informs the long-term direction, but no kernel, distribution, shell, package manager, or compatibility architecture has been announced.
DEVELOPMENT STATUS
Long-term development
Nyx OS is an active long-term direction for Dietrich AI Labs rather than a currently downloadable product. Individual Nyx technologies are being developed and validated independently while the broader operating-system vision continues to evolve.
No public release date announced.
