About this app

bighelp is a streamlined way to work with the AI agents you run with Hermes. Whether you want a simple chat interface, or a full fleet command center, bighelp has it covered. CHATS THAT FEEL LIKE TEXTING • Message any of your agents one on one • Watch replies arrive as they're written • Type, talk, or share photos and files • Pick up any conversation right where you left off GROUP CHATS • Pull several agents into one thread • Mention who should take what, and they split the work A FACE FOR EVERY AGENT • Give each agent a name, a face and a job • Live avatars show when an agent is thinking, working or waiting on you WORKFLOWS Build and manage custom node-style workflows for repeatable processes across your agents! YOU STAY IN CHARGE • Approvals let an agent ask before it acts • Agents can reply with cards and forms, so choosing is one tap TASKS ON A SCHEDULE • Set up a morning brief, a weekly budget check-in or a fare watch • Pause or change a task anytime VOICE • Talk it through, turn by turn or live • Turn-based voice is transcribed on your device EVERYWHERE YOU ARE • Notifications, Live Activities, widgets and Shortcuts • An Apple Watch app for quick replies and approvals • Works on iPhone and iPad • Light and dark themes NERD MODE Everyday controls stay simple. Turn on Nerd Mode in Settings to reveal host tools like files, plugins and logs. OPTIONAL DEVICE TOOLS With your permission, agents can add to your Calendar and Reminders and see where you are. Each is off until you turn it on under Permissions. HOW BIGHELP CONNECTS bighelp connects directly to a Hermes host you run, such as your own Mac, over your home network, Tailscale or HTTPS. Sign in with that host's own login. No separate bighelp account is needed. The free bighelp plugin for Hermes adds notifications, live voice, cards and the Feed. Your Hermes host remains the agent engine. AI, voice, storage and infrastructure providers configured on that host may process data under their own terms and may require separate accounts or subscriptions.

What's new

New - A new look: Bighelp has a new mascot, the lifter. The app icon, the name and the colors are new. - Three places: the first tab shows your Bots view or your Chats view. Today and Work are the other two tabs. The round New chat button is next to them. - Chats: one list shows every chat on every computer, newest first. - New chat: select one bot to start a chat, or two to six bots to start a group chat. For one bot, a row below the message box starts a coding session. - Today: a grid of panels shows Feed, Ideas and Goals from your bots. Tap Edit to change the order and the size. - Spaces: a bot can draft a live panel in a chat. Tap Add to Today to keep it. Spaces need Bighelp plugin 3.54.0 on your Hermes computer. - Work: one list shows what your bots do. Four doors open Projects, Tasks, Workflows and Schedules. - Needs you: one place shows each approval, question and sign-off that waits on you. - Let's do it: tap Let's do it on an idea. The chat gets the idea as a card immediately, and the idea moves to a Completed list. - Do it on a Feed post: on the Feed of one bot, swipe a post to the right and tap Do it. Swipe a post to the left to clear it. - Live Activity: the card shows the step in progress, the last steps, a timer and the first lines of the reply. Your computer encrypts these details for your device. This needs Bighelp plugin 3.52.0. - Blueprints: each blank of a blueprint is a chip in your message. An empty Feed or Ideas page shows three starters. - iPhone Duo: when the Duo is half-folded, a chat shows its bot below the message box. Changed - One Settings for everyone. Advanced options is the new name of Nerd Mode. - The Bots, Chat and Code modes are gone. Settings, Chat, Opens on sets the place that the app opens on. - Each bot has one page with the tabs Dashboard, Info, Computer, Files and Media. - All screens now say bot, chat, computer and project. Fixed - A post that you clear on the Feed of one bot now leaves Today immediately. - Bighelp no longer stops responding after a new install on a computer with thousands of chats. - With more than 10,000 chats, Bighelp now shows the newest chats of each bot. - The Live Activity card now gets updates for all turns while Bighelp is closed. - The search field on Chats and the chips on Work show in full. - Ask, Discuss and a blueprint always put their text in the message box of the new chat.
