Hiportex
Public beta · free download

Tell your computer what to do. It never leaves your desk.

Hiportex is a desktop operating system with an integrated AI service layer. Ask it in your own words to sort your files, set up a driver or convert a document, and it does it, on your machine. The AI model runs entirely on your computer, offline: no account, no cloud, no uploads. You see the plan before anything changes. Most changes can be undone, and when one can't, you're told before you approve.

Meet AIOS

The assistant built into Hiportex.

AIOS is the window where you tell your computer what you want, in your own words. It isn't a chatbot bolted onto a desktop: it's the integrated AI service layer, part of the system and always there. It does the work, you stay in charge, and the system remembers how to undo.

Private, and offline

The AI model is installed with the system and runs on your own processor and graphics card. No account, no cloud, no uploads. Unplug the internet and it still works.

Does the work, not just the talking

Ask it to organize a folder, set up a driver or convert a document, and it does it, on your files, on your machine. You see the plan before anything changes.

It can put things back

Before it changes your files or your system, it saves a way back: a restore point, or a recorded undo. Sorted the wrong folder, installed the wrong driver? Pick the change in Restore points and roll it back.

AIOS, in one sentence

A messy folder, tidied in one sentence.

It sorts the loose files into folders by type. You see every move before it happens, and you can take the whole sort back.

Example files, for illustration.

Just ask.

  • install the graphics driver

    Sets up NVIDIA's driver, with a restore point first. If Secure Boot would stop it loading, it tells you before anything is installed.
  • find the document about the lease renewal

    Finds files by what is written inside them, not only by their name.
  • find the photo of the beach

    Finds pictures by what they show.
  • summarize the meeting notes in Documents

    Reads a document and tells you what it says.
  • turn report.docx into a PDF

    Converts Word, Markdown and images, merges and splits PDFs, resizes photos.
  • install VLC

    Installs apps from the Debian archive, through the same plan and approval.
  • how much disk space do I have left?

    Answers questions about your computer from the computer itself.
  • ما هي الجاذبية؟

    Ask in English or Arabic, and it answers in the language you wrote in.

Hiportex is in beta: some of these are still being refined.

Not another AI that wants the keys.

Most AI assistants either only talk, or act on their own and hope for the best. Hiportex does the work and keeps you in charge: it proposes, you decide, and the system remembers how to undo.

How it works

How AIOS keeps you in charge.

  1. You say what you want

    Typos and all. "renmae notes.txt to hello.txt" works.

  2. It shows you the plan

    Exactly what will be created, moved, changed or deleted, before anything runs.

  3. You approve, and it's done

    A way back is saved first, and a receipt shows what actually changed on your disk.

  4. Changed your mind?

    Open Settings › Restore points, pick the change and roll it back.

Security — of your machine

Things can go wrong. They can't stay wrong.

Before AIOS changes your files or your system, it saves a way back: a restore point, or a recorded undo. A driver that breaks the display, a folder sorted the wrong way, a package you didn't want: pick it in Restore points and roll it back. When a change can't be undone, the plan says so before you approve.

And the AI never holds the keys. It can only propose. Fixed rules decide what any plan is allowed to do, and the system enforces them.

What it doesn't do: it can't stop you approving a bad plan, and it doesn't cover changes made outside AIOS. Hiportex guarantees your machine. Your judgment is yours.

Honesty

When something goes wrong, it says so.

If a change can't be made safely, AIOS refuses — and tells you why, in plain words, before anything runs. If something can't be undone, you're told before you approve, not after. And it never reports a change it didn't make: receipts are written by the system from what actually happened on your disk, not by the AI from what it meant to do.

The same in small things. Ask where the AI is running and it tells you — graphics card or processor, and whether that's slower.

Privacy

It doesn't watch your screen.

Hiportex takes no screenshots, records no keystrokes, and keeps no history of what you looked at. AIOS reads only the folders you've allowed, like Documents and Pictures. Everything outside them, including the hidden folders where passwords and keys are kept, is off limits. Everything it knows about your files stays on your disk, and you can tell it to forget a file or a whole folder. There is no account, and AIOS never sends your files anywhere. Your computer goes online only to check for updates and set its clock, and to fetch the updates and downloads you approve. Unplug the network and AIOS still works.

It reads
  • Files you keep
  • In folders you've allowed
  • Kept on your own disk, forgotten when you ask
It never
  • Takes screenshots
  • Records keystrokes
  • Keeps a history of what you looked at
  • Reads outside the folders you've allowed
  • Sends your files anywhere
  • Asks for an account

If you've used Windows or a Mac, you already know how to use it

A taskbar, a start menu, a system tray, windows that behave the way you expect. Files and settings where you'd look for them. A browser, a file manager, a PDF and photo viewer, an office suite and the usual tools are already installed, in a dark or a light look. Underneath it's KDE Plasma on Debian 13 — a desktop millions use — so it's familiar on day one and stable for years.

Built on Debian 13

One of the most trusted Linux foundations, with Debian's own security updates. Hiportex's signed package archive is public at deb.hiportex.com; installed machines start taking their updates from it in a later release.

Roadmap

How Hiportex is built, layer by layer.

Every step, done or not, with two marks. Built means the code ships in the image. Proven means it was seen working on a real installed computer, not only in tests. Nothing is left off because it isn't finished. Read it from the foundation down.

Why “Hiportex”? From the hippocampus, where memory forms, and the prefrontal cortex, which decides what to do — and what not to.
