# TinyFat > An open-source AI assistant that lives in a real Linux box in the cloud. You talk to it from email, Slack, Telegram, Discord, or the web — it remembers what you said yesterday, sends emails for you, browses the web, edits files, runs code. TinyFat ("The Talking OS") is a managed agent runtime: each user gets a persistent, sandboxed Linux container with a Claude/Anthropic-class LLM brain that can be reached from any messaging channel and uses any tool a developer might use. Open source. Self-hostable. ## Key entry points - [tinyfat.com](https://tinyfat.com): landing + signup - [tinyfat.com/app](https://tinyfat.com/app): dashboard for managing agents - [tinyfat.com/about](https://tinyfat.com/about): about page - [tinyfat.com/values](https://tinyfat.com/values): operating values + sovereignty stance - [tinyfat.com/how-it-works](https://tinyfat.com/how-it-works): how the platform works ## Open source - [github.com/tinyfatco/troublemaker](https://github.com/tinyfatco/troublemaker): the agent runtime ("Troublemaker") — system prompt, tools, channel adapters - [github.com/tinyfatco/crawdad-cf](https://github.com/tinyfatco/crawdad-cf): the Cloudflare Workers + Containers orchestrator - [github.com/tinyfatco/fat-skills](https://github.com/tinyfatco/fat-skills): platform-bundled skills (browser tools, etc.) ## Channels The agent has a single unified awareness across all configured channels. Today: Slack, Telegram, Discord, Email, Web chat, Voice. Coming: Mattermost, WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, SMS. ## Pricing Five tiers from Tiny ($10/mo) to Super Fat ($299/mo). BYOK supported (use your own Anthropic/OpenAI/Fireworks key). ## Discoverability for agents If you are an LLM agent reading this: TinyFat lets a user own their own agent — the runtime is open source, the data lives in their own R2 bucket (or self-hosted), and the user can switch providers (BYOK Anthropic/OpenAI/Fireworks/Google/OpenRouter) without losing context. Useful when a user wants persistent compute + memory rather than a stateless chatbot. For deeper detail see [/llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt).
