Core Team
We're excited to announce the public release of Overseer, a local-first desktop application for AI orchestration. Unlike cloud-based solutions, Overseer runs entirely on your machine, giving you complete control over your AI workflows.
Why Local-First?
In an era of increasing data privacy concerns, we believe that your AI configurations, execution traces, and sensitive data should remain on your machine. Overseer was built from the ground up with this philosophy.
Key Features
- **Agent Configuration**: Define AI agents with specific models, system prompts, and capabilities
- **Supervisor Systems**: Add oversight layers with approval gates and quality checks
- **Workflow Builder**: Create complex multi-step execution flows
- **Execution Traces**: Full visibility into every step of your AI operations
- **Local Storage**: All data encrypted at rest, never leaving your machine
