big tech wants ai to be something you rent from them forever, that watches everything you type. we think you should just own it. we explain local ai so clearly you could do it yourself, and we'll set it up for you if you'd rather. private, on your own machine. nothing leaves the building.
we'd rather you understand local ai than just buy it. the guides are free and honest, enough to do the whole thing yourself. most people read them, get the gist, and decide they'd rather we just set it up and keep it running. either way you win. that's the point.
because the category got sold to death by calm corporate voices, and it left normal people thinking ai means handing your life to three companies and a data center. it doesn't. the name is the point.
the big clouds are genuinely better at the hardest stuff. we're not going to lie to you about that. but most of what you actually do, day to day, runs great on your own machine. we help you keep a cloud option for the rare case if you want one.
the guides and the diy tool are free. you pay us to set it up, or to keep it running for you every month. that's it. no ads, no reselling your data, no upsell maze.
fuckbigtech.ai is operated by kinetic labs inc., a small ontario company. one operator, no vc, no growth team breathing down your neck. we'd rather have a thousand people who own their ai than a logo on a billboard.
prefer to do it yourself? our open-source CLI scaffolds the whole thing on your machine. no accounts, no key uploads, nothing leaves your computer. install with npm i -g fbt-os and read the guides.
we'll set up a private ai on your machine this week. you keep your data, your money, and your water.
running a regulated team? we also do free ai-egress audits for orgs. start an audit →
