Hermes Redde

Talk, chat and run your agent

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

New: spoken prefixes that add text or switch the model, and reasoning effort that reaches every model. Talk to your own agent at home, at your desk or in the car. Redde is a complete iPhone and iPad client for Hermes, the open-source AI agent. Talk to it or type, watch it think and use tools, approve what it wants to run, and manage everything it does: sessions, projects, profiles, scheduled jobs, and the Kanban board. It also talks straight to any OpenAI-compatible model server when you just want a fast answer. You bring the backend. Redde has no account, no analytics, and no cloud of its own; every request goes only to the server you configured. TALK, DON'T TYPE • Tap the mic, ask, hear the answer. Speech recognition runs on your iPhone; the reply is spoken back with the built-in voice or your own Kokoro server. • Hands-free mode keeps the conversation going until you say "that's all". • Interrupt mid-answer: tap the mic to cut in, or type to steer the reply. • In CarPlay, ask through the car's mic and hear the answer through its speakers. • "Hey Siri, ask Redde…" works from the Lock Screen and AirPods. A Control Center button and Lock Screen widget open Redde listening. • On iOS 27, Siri can message your agent in your own words and read the reply back (opt-in). • A voice orb that moves with your voice and Redde's. Pause, replay, or have any reply read aloud. • "Ask Redde a Question" in Shortcuts returns the answer as text for your automations. SPOKEN PREFIXES Start a voice or Siri message with a word of your choice and Redde does what the word says: drops a text prefix in front, switches the conversation to a model you chose, or both. Say "Opus, review this diff" and the conversation moves to Opus before the message goes. The switch sticks for the follow-ups. Set it up once in Settings → Voice: the word, the ways it tends to be misheard, the prefix, the model. Off until you add a rule, spoken messages only, and anything you type stays exactly as typed. SEE THE AGENT WORK • Watch reasoning as it streams, with tool calls as they happen and a Live Activity for progress. • Approve or deny a risky command, answer the agent's questions, a sudo prompt or a missing secret, all from a notification. • Subagents get their own rows; tap one to follow its transcript, steer it, or stop it. A FULL CLIENT, NOT JUST A MIC • Every conversation lives in your gateway's session ledger: start on the phone, continue on the desktop, Telegram or the CLI. Search, pin, rename, fork, archive. • Sessions grouped by project. Scheduled jobs with delivery targets and blueprints. The Kanban board, live. • Rich replies: Markdown, highlighted code, tables, task lists, images, zoomable Mermaid diagrams, and math. • Pictures and files from the agent arrive ready to view: snapshots, charts, PDFs. • Regenerate, edit and resend, or search a long chat. • Attach photos and files; export chats as Markdown. • Share to Redde from any app: text, links, photos or files land in the composer. • Widgets show the last answer or start listening; the Action Button can open Redde listening. • Switch models mid-conversation from the chat header or with /model. • Skills and tool sets, on or off. Edit the agent's memory and context files in place, and create skills or let Redde draft one. YOUR BACKEND, YOUR RULES • Connect to Hermes through the Hermes Dashboard or the Hermes API, on your LAN, over a tailnet, or behind Cloudflare Access. • Or go straight to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint: llama.cpp, llama-swap, vLLM, Ollama on your hardware, or a hosted provider with your key. • Credentials stay in the Keychain. Speech recognition runs on the phone. • Face ID lock, seven themes with your own colors, app icons and voice orbs, iPad split view, keyboard shortcuts. • No account, no analytics, no tracking. The privacy label says "Data Not Collected" because that is what happens. REQUIRES A Hermes agent (github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent) or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Redde includes no model or hosted service. Hermes is an open-source project by Nous Research; Redde is an independent client, not affiliated with Nous Research.

Spoken prefixes that add text or switch the model, reasoning effort that reaches every model, and AirPods replies that stay in your AirPods. • Spoken prefixes. Start a spoken message with a word of your choice ("Claude, …") and Redde swaps it for a text prefix, switches the conversation to a model you pick, or both, in voice mode and through Siri. Off until you add one, in Settings → Voice. Typed messages are never changed. • Reasoning effort, everywhere. The level you pick in Settings → Model now applies to whatever model you talk to, and to the conversation you have open, not only to new ones. Type /reasoning high in a Hermes Dashboard chat and it changes that conversation too. • None. A new level that asks the model to skip thinking and answer straight away. New installs start there. Some models and servers decide that for themselves. • Replies through your AirPods. A question asked through AirPods sometimes got its answer from the phone's speaker. It stays in your ears now. • A menu for effort. Seven levels no longer squeeze into one row. • Lighter on the battery. Waiting for a reply and watching a model think take far less work, most of all in a long conversation. • The model you pick is the model you get. On the Hermes API, a model from a second endpoint or provider now reaches it, and a provider your server has renamed or removed no longer stops the conversation. • On a Mac. Opening voice mode no longer closes the app.
