What I'm Building

Nova AI Platform

Self-directed AI platform — give it a goal and Nova plans subtasks, dispatches them to specialized agents, and re-plans on feedback. Routes requests across Anthropic, OpenAI, Groq, Gemini, and local vLLM/Ollama based on task and cost, with three deployment modes: full local/private, hybrid cloud + local, or all cloud. Brain-inspired Engram memory with spreading activation and Hebbian consolidation; a PyTorch re-ranker learns retrieval preferences. Exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint so Cursor and Continue treat Nova as their provider.
