Hermes in your businessConnected

Takes action

  • Does real work

    Hermes reads files, runs commands, edits code, searches the web, and checks its results. You decide which tools and permissions it can use.

  • Builds reusable skills

    Hermes can save a useful procedure as a reusable skill after solving a problem or receiving a correction. Review those skills as your tasks and tools change.

  • Keeps useful context

    Hermes can retain working preferences and decisions from earlier sessions, so you can continue a project without explaining everything again.

  • Works through your channels

    Connect the same agent to a supported channel such as Telegram, Slack, Discord, or WhatsApp. The available tools and access depend on your configuration.

  • Lets you choose the model

    Hermes supports models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, and other providers, including local models. Choose a model that fits the task and your data requirements.

  • Separates workflows

    Use independent Hermes instances with their own configuration, memory, and skills to keep teams, projects, or workflows separate.

  • Connects to your tools

    Plugins, service integrations, and scheduled tasks let Hermes work with the tools your team already uses. Start with the connections the task needs.

Questions and answers

01What is Hermes Agent?

Hermes is an open-source AI agent developed by Nous Research. It can read files, run commands, edit code, and work through the tools and channels you connect. Voltti provides installation and support. Read more about Hermes Agent for your business.

02Where does Hermes run?

Hermes runs on a computer at your premises. For individual use, Hermes Desktop runs on your own workstation. A team can work through a channel it already uses, such as Telegram, Slack, or Discord. The language model can be local or external; that choice determines whether task data is sent to a model provider. Read about local AI for businesses.

03Does all data stay in our environment?

The Hermes environment runs at your premises. Code and repositories live where you choose: GitHub, an internal git server, or local storage. You decide which data may go to an external model and which connected services the agent can use. Read about security and privacy.

04Can Hermes connect to our existing software?

We connect the systems that are useful for your task, with the minimum permissions required. These might include a CRM, CMS, project management tool, or document source. See AI automation for your business.

05How do backups and recovery work?

Encrypted backups go to a separate location in your network, never to the node itself. The agreed support setup includes recovery checks, so the environment can be restored after a hardware failure. Read about our approach to security.

06What does a Hermes setup cost?

Costs include installation, support, and model usage. You receive a custom quote after we discuss the task and setup. Read about the costs of an AI agent.

07Can we start small?

Yes. Start with one person using Hermes Desktop on their own workstation. A team can then work with Hermes through a channel it already uses. Voltti supports businesses in Belgium and the Netherlands. See how a Voltti pilot works.
