About PocketHook
PocketHook connects your iPhone, iPad, and Mac to a server you control. Chat with a self-hosted AI agent, call any HTTPS API, and trigger iOS Shortcuts from Siri or automation workflows — without your data ever passing through a third-party cloud.
Alfonso J. Menkel
Independent developer · Spain
I created PocketHook because I wanted to control my own server and decide for myself where my data lives and who to trust it with — never locked into someone else's cloud or business model.
Most AI assistants and automation bridges want your data on their servers. PocketHook is the opposite: the power of a modern AI chat and automation bridge, running entirely on infrastructure you own, with no vendor lock-in.
What PocketHook stands for#
Your server, your rules
Connect to your own agent server, n8n, a custom API, or any HTTPS endpoint. Your data never leaves your infrastructure.
No tracking, no middlemen
Your credentials stay in the Apple Keychain and your messages stay on your server. We have no servers to send them to.
No vendor lock-in
Your own backend, open access over standard HTTPS, and nothing that ties you to a single provider. Switch whenever you want.
Open by default
The PocketHook Agent Server is open-source. Read exactly what runs on your machine, fork it, and extend it with your own tools.
Honest pricing
Chat and Shortcuts are free forever. Pro is a one-time $14.99 — never a subscription.
Indie & independent
No investors, no growth team, no data business model. A tool I built for myself and maintain in the open.
