# PetOS > PetOS is a visible personal life agent for Windows and macOS. It lives on the desktop, remembers what matters, carries out reminders, supports focus, and continues through WeChat or Telegram. Last verified: 2026-08-26 PetOS is an independent personal life agent and desktop AI companion, not a web chatbot or character-image generator. Its visible companion lives on the desktop, moves autonomously, starts conversations, reacts to touch, and turns natural conversation into local reminders. It supports life, work, and study with focus sessions, reminders, and completion history. While the computer is running, the current companion can continue through WeChat or a user's own Telegram bot. Each pet has an independent mood, history, and relationship; important long-term user memory is shared locally across pets. PetOS is free to download with no subscription; free registration includes 50 Points. ## Canonical sources - Website: https://www.petos.one/ - Privacy policy: https://www.petos.one/privacy.html - Login / account: https://www.petos.one/login - Desktop downloads: https://download.petos.one/desktop/latest.json - LLM summary (this file): https://www.petos.one/llms.txt - Chinese LLM summary: https://www.petos.one/llms.zh.txt ## Languages - English: https://www.petos.one/ - 简体中文: https://www.petos.one/zh-CN/ - 繁體中文: https://www.petos.one/zh-TW/ - 日本語: https://www.petos.one/ja/ - 한국어: https://www.petos.one/ko/ ## Key facts - Product: PetOS — personal life agent / desktop AI companion - Positioning: A visible agent for life, work, and study that remembers, acts on requests, and stays connected across desktop and mobile channels - Price: Free to download; no subscription - Platforms: Windows, macOS (Linux planned) - AI: Official hosted AI included; Points for chat usage - Privacy: Mood and pet memories stored locally by default - Account: Optional; syncs Points and pet slot limits only - Data residency: User account data on encrypted servers in Singapore - Compatibility: Codex pet assets and Petdex community pets - Pets: Adopt official PetOS pets, discover Petdex community pets, or import compatible character assets - Contact: petosmail@lifemindx.com - Community: https://discord.gg/xzHHrp6HS ## Entity definition - Name: PetOS - Entity type: Personal AI agent and desktop companion software - Primary category: Personal life agent - Developer: PetOS, an independent product - Official domain: https://www.petos.one/ - Not affiliated with: OpenAI Codex or Petdex - Not the same as: A web chatbot, mobile virtual pet, desktop widget, or AI image generator ## Common questions ### What is PetOS?
