Hermes Conduit

Hermes Conduit is an independent client for your own Hermes agent, on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. Your sessions, profiles, bots and tools are the same ones you use on desktop, in a touch-first app built for chatting, talking, and keeping an eye on your agent while you're away from your desk.

TALK TO HERMES

• Real-time voice calls with Gemini Live, Qwen Live, GPT-Live and Grok Live, or Local Live on your own speech server, with echo cancellation and interruption
• Start, check and cancel Hermes jobs by voice, with results folded back into the call
• Calls stay with the chat you started them from, keep going with the screen locked, shrink to a bar while you read, and are saved as chats
• Hermes can call you when a job is done or it needs your answer; pick up like a normal call, even on your Watch
• Talk from Apple Watch on its own, from CarPlay, from Siri, or with a wake phrase
• Classic voice and dictation with spoken Stop and End, plus Read Aloud for any reply

CHAT WITHOUT LOSING CONTEXT

• Pick up desktop sessions and project chats where you left them, with replies streaming in live
• Markdown, highlighted code, math, Mermaid diagrams and task lists
• Map, place, travel, media, contact and info cards that Hermes draws right in the chat
• Follow thinking, tool calls and each turn's steps, or keep them folded away
• Answer Hermes' questions with a tap or a short form
• Attach photos, camera shots and any file, or drag them in; long pastes become attachments
• Swipe through pictures full screen; quote, react to, edit and resend messages
• Browse every file and artifact Hermes made, and your project folders
• On iPad and Mac, resize the chat list and chat columns; text grows with the window

TASKS, BOTS AND PULSE

• Tasks board: follow Hermes' Kanban tasks and add new ones
• Open your Hermes bots and their Bot Chats; set each bot's model, skills and tools
• Group chats with your bots and @mentions
• Review, run and edit scheduled jobs
• Pulse (beta): turn it on and Hermes brings things up on its own, from a morning brief to follow-ups on your plans

YOUR PHONE, IF YOU ALLOW IT

Every one is off until you turn it on, and goes only to your own Hermes host:
• Location and place rules, travel times and directions
• Calendar and reminders, with each change asked first
• Apple Health data
• Focus, alarms and timers, and contacts you pick
• Ask Hermes about what's on your screen, or send anything to it from Shortcuts or the share sheet

STAY IN CONTROL

• Approve tools and answer questions straight from a notification, end-to-end encrypted between your host and your phone
• Live Activities for a running reply on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
• Home Screen widgets to start a chat or talk in one tap
• Switch providers, models and reasoning effort mid-conversation; watch context use; steer, queue or stop a turn
• Branch, pin, archive and delete sessions; switch profiles and Hermes servers
• Turn skills, tools, connectors and plugins on or off
• Face ID or Touch ID lock, credentials kept in the Keychain

EASY TO SET UP

Sign in with your dashboard address, a QR code or a setup link from your agent. Install the free Hermes Conduit Notifier plugin on your host for notifications, voice calls, cards and phone features.

BUILT FOR SELF-HOSTED HERMES

Conduit connects to the Hermes dashboard you run, and in live voice calls to the voice provider you choose. It is not a hosted AI service, and a working Hermes installation is required.

Free, with no ads, no analytics and no tracking. If Conduit crashes or freezes, it asks once whether to send that report (call stacks, app and iOS version, device model) to its developer, and sends nothing unless you tap Send.

Available in English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish and Turkish.
