Embodied Moxie companion robot

- none documented

Embodied’s cloud went dark in early 2025 and the US$800 robot stopped working. jbeghtol’s local hub runs on a PC, Mac or Raspberry Pi and brings back daily missions, reading, workouts, schedules and custom conversations through a web console.
- ai
- No AI involvement documented in building it. The robot's conversation runs on the owner's own OpenAI account.
- caveats
- Needs a paid OpenAI account. Ocean Explorer, Animal Faces and Story Maker are missing, and there is no parent app. The default setup allows anonymous access to the hub; lock down your network. openmoxie.org and "OpenMoxie 2.0" are not affiliated.
- evidence
- Public repo, actively maintained.
