An assistant of your own
One body
Many minds
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Muse Spark, MiMo, anything on OpenRouter, or a model on your own machine.
Your questions, projects, and ideas — one assistant, powered by the models you choose
Invite-only for now — leave your email and we'll wave you in.

Wherever you are
One account, one set of conversations. Open the one you left on the desk from the phone in your pocket, and carry on where it stopped.
-
On your PC
The whole thing: your files, your terminal, your browser. It works in the folder you opened, on the real files.
-
In a browser
Sign in from any machine and the same conversations are there. The work can stay on your own PC while the tab just watches it happen.
-
On your phone
Install it straight from the browser. Ask for something on the way home, get a notification when it needs you, and answer it there.
Two ways in
What did you come for?
Same account, same conversations, same models — the other half is there whenever you want it.
Not one model
A cast
Everything else hands the whole job to one model and bills you at its rate. Gambalf gives each part of the job to the model you picked for it.
- The planner
- A model that's good at thinking reads the problem and decides what to do.
- The worker
- A cheaper, faster one carries it out — the edits, the commands, the reading.
- The checker
- A different model reads the result before the job is allowed to be called done.
- The one in the background
- Titles, summaries and the small errands can go to the cheapest model you have.
The settings page needs a dark mode toggle.
- planner read the page and planned the change Claude
- worker wrote the toggle and its styles MiMo
- worker ran the tests — all passing MiMo
- MiMo hands the work back to Claude. Moved up for the browser check.
- worker opened the page and switched it on Claude
- checker reviewed the change before finishing Gemini
Dark mode is on the settings page and it remembers your choice. I checked it in the browser rather than guessing.
Illustrative breakdown

Find us a mountain weekend under €300.
- planner picked three towns within the budget Claude
- worker found a cabin and the train times MiMo
- worker checked the forecast — Saturday is clear MiMo
- checker re-added the costs before finishing Gemini
A cabin near Harrachov: €278 with the trains there and back. The prices are from the pages, not memory — links are ready.

What changed between these two contract versions?
- planner read both versions and mapped the sections Claude
- worker compared them clause by clause MiMo
- worker pulled the exact wording of each change MiMo
- checker checked every quote against the files Gemini
Two changes: the notice period doubled, and clause 7 now covers subcontractors. Both quoted, with page numbers.

01
Reuse your cast
Save your model lineup once and use it in any conversation—or keep the whole job on one model.
-
02
Moves up when needed
If a lighter model can't handle a step, Gambalf hands it to a stronger one and lets you know.
-
03
Costs, broken down
See what every phase costs and exactly where lower-cost models saved you money.
What it actually does
Three ways people use it — and it's the same assistant in all of them.
Just talk to it
Ask it anything
It reads what you drop in, searches the web when it needs to, and makes pictures when you ask for them.
-
Any model, one conversation
Bring a photo, a PDF or a spreadsheet, and change models without losing the thread.
-
It remembers what matters
Facts you'd otherwise repeat every time carry into the next conversation.
-
Out loud, if you like
Dictate, have replies read back, or leave it in voice mode and just talk.
Put it to work
Hand it a whole project
It plans the approach, edits across your files and runs your commands — and stops for you before anything that matters.
-
Plans before it acts
Agree on the approach first. Nothing is touched until you say go.
-
Checks its own work
It opens your app in a browser and looks, instead of telling you it probably works.
-
As careful as you want
A quick answer, or test and review everything before it calls a job done.
The rest of your life
It isn't only for work
Money, travel, health, cooking, gardening, careers — twelve areas, and each one knows exactly what it's allowed to touch.
-
A calendar that plans with you
It reads what's coming and proposes, instead of leaving you to fill in boxes.
-
Jobs at a time you pick
Say when, and it does that one job then and tells you what it did.
-
Encrypted on your own disk
Your life folders are encrypted, with the key in your system keychain.
The models you want
From the providers you choose
Use the key or subscription you already have, a model served on your own machine, or your own endpoint. Gambalf never sits between you and whoever you're paying.
Where it stands
Better you read this here than find out after you're in.
- Anyone can sign up
- Not yet. We're inviting people from the waitlist in batches, so we can keep up with the feedback.
- macOS and Linux
- Windows first. The other two come after the preview.
- An app in the stores
- The phone version is the web app — you install it from the browser. There's nothing to download from a store.
- A price list
- Gambalf is free while it's in preview. There will be paid plans later, and we'll say so before there are.
Three steps
-
01
Join the waitlist
Leave your email. Invites go out in batches while the preview is small.
-
02
Connect a model
Sign in to a subscription, paste a key, or point it at a model on your own machine.
-
03
Start talking
Ask a question, or open a folder and ask for the work. Approve what it wants to do.
Get on the list
Leave your email and we'll let you in as the preview opens up. It's free while it lasts.
