00 the principle
Pay for the app.
Not for markup on tokens.
No usage-based pricing surprises
Flat $0 or $19/mo. Use Claude Max, OpenAI API, Ollama — pay them directly, not CrabiX.
Models and data stay on your machine
Everything runs locally. No conversations sent to CrabiX servers. Your data is yours.
01 sound familiar?
You've been
here before.
You have models, agents, tools, and code — but no single control plane. You spend more time wiring providers together than actually shipping.
Claude hits its limit mid-task. Again. You want one endpoint that just works — Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, all through your own subscriptions without touching configs.

02 how it works
Zero to full AI stack
in three steps
Connect your providers once. Point any tool at one URL. Agents and AI Corp handle the rest.
Connect your AI stack
Pick from 250+ providers in the catalog — Claude, Codex, Gemini, Ollama, OpenRouter, Azure, Bedrock, LM Studio. CrabiX detects limits, quotas, and latency automatically.
Set one URL, launch any tool
Point Cursor, VS Code, or Continue to localhost:3721/v1. Run `crabix launch claude` to start Claude Code through your providers — original configs stay untouched.
http://localhost:3721/v1Run agents, build AI companies
Background agents execute multi-step work with tools. In AI Corp, build teams of AI employees with goals, issues, routines and budgets — all running on your machine, no cloud required.
03 provider router
All your providers. One smart router.
250+ providers in the catalog. Automatic fallback on rate limits, latency-aware routing, combo models — zero config changes in Cursor or VS Code. Learn how provider routing works and what a local AI router is.
04 what's inside
Seven layers.
OneApp.
From smart routing and autonomous agents to cross-device access — every layer ships in a single native app.
Provider Router
13 strategies: Smart, Weighted, P2C, LeastUsed, Price, Latency, Fastest and more. Combo models with fallback chains. Automatic switching on rate limits — no config changes in Cursor or VS Code.
Cost & Provider Dashboard
Real-time status, latency, and usage across all providers. See your full AI pool at a glance — without four browser tabs. System tray shows green/yellow status instantly.
AI Workspace
Chat, built-in browser, terminal, design, file explorer, and Git — all in one window. Branch-based chat history, 5 agent modes, 6 access levels, web search, voice STT/TTS, and RTK context compression.
Terminal
PTY sessions — processes survive tab switching
Browser Preview
Live rendering, navigation history
Git + PR
Commit, push, branch, diff — no external GUI
Voice STT/TTS
Local Whisper & Kokoro — no cloud

Pencil MCP — edit .pen files from chat
RTK Context

CrabiX Launch
15 integrations out of the box: claude, codex, vscode, cline, opencode, claude-desktop, hermes and more. Tool configs are backed up and restored. crabix launch codex --model qwen3-coder@my-account just works.
AI Corp
Build autonomous AI-first companies: companies → teams → employees → goals → issues → routines → approvals → budgets. Import ~440 ready employees from companies.sh in one command. All on your machine.
MCP & Skills
Runtime: up to 16 live MCP sessions per workspace scope (stdio + HTTP). Import configs from Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop. Skills inject from SKILL.md or CLAUDE.md. Plugins bundle MCP + Skills in one folder.
CLI / Service Mode
Same binary as the desktop — `crabix serve` runs a headless gateway daemon. `crabix agent run` executes tasks autonomously. `crabix tui` shows live status. One config file shared between GUI and CLI.
CrabiX Link
Access your gateway, chats, and agents from any device via direct p2p tunnel (iroh). QR pairing, no cloud intermediary, scope-based auth. Desktop ↔ mobile ↔ second computer — one backend, multiple screens.
05 ai workspace
One window. Every tool you need.
Chat, terminal, browser, git, design, files — all connected to the same gateway. No context switching. See what's inside the AI Workspace.

12 common questions
Everything you might be wondering
Honest answers to the most common concerns before you start. More detail in the security & privacy guide and on the pricing page.
Won't CrabiX add latency?
CrabiX is designed for sub-5ms proxy overhead on localhost. The Latency routing strategy picks the fastest live provider in real time — often faster than staying with a throttled one.
Are my API keys safe with CrabiX?
Keys are stored locally in your OS keyring — macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, or Linux keyutils — with an encrypted fallback. The server binds to 127.0.0.1, never exposed to the network. Nothing leaves your device.
What if I just need routing, not a full platform?
Start with Free — it's just a local gateway with Smart routing and a dashboard. Use the workspace, agents, AI Corp, and CrabiX Launch only when you're ready. Nothing is forced on you.
Is building AI companies with CrabiX over-engineered?
Run one command: crabix corp companies import owner/repo — get ~440 employees and ~500 skills from companies.sh loaded in under a minute. Or build a company from a single markdown file. No YAML, no cloud.
13 account authorization

Sign in once to keep your dashboard, subscriptions, invoices, referrals, earnings, product access, and desktop connection tied to the right account.
