For freelancers and small businesses
Your work, done before you wake up.
A team of AI bots for the work you repeat every day, week and month. It learns from your own notes and files, runs your routines on a schedule, and lives on your Mac or PC.
Works with the Claude you already use.
Just two things, and neither takes long. 46 emails came in overnight. I drafted replies for the 9 that needed one and archived the newsletters.
- Marta from Linden Studio wants to move Thursday's review to Friday morning. Your Friday is free until 11:00.
- Your accountant needs last quarter's mileage log by Monday. I found it in Documents and attached it to a draft reply.
Everything else can wait until this afternoon.
You're meeting Daniel Reyes from Kestrel Coffee. Here's what matters:
- You built their website in March. They've paid every invoice on time.
- Last week he asked whether you could also run their email newsletter. You haven't quoted yet, so that's likely the real topic.
- He mentioned a second shop opening in spring. Worth asking about.
I put your newsletter rates and two past examples in the brief, in case it comes up.
Two invoices are late, £2,350 in total:
- Linden Studio, 9 days late. They're usually just busy, so I drafted a light, friendly nudge.
- Hartley & Sons, 24 days late. This is the second reminder, so the draft is a little firmer and includes your bank details again.
Both quote the invoice number and the original due date.
Yes. “The week we stopped guessing”: 640 words in your voice, in three short parts:
- What you shipped for Kestrel, and the one thing you'd do differently.
- A simple tip from Tuesday's client call that other readers can use.
- One link worth your reader's time.
I left out the pricing story, because it felt unfinished in your notes. It's in Files.
Here's one from Tuesday's client call. Short, useful, and it sounds like you:
A client asked me why their beautiful website gets no enquiries. The answer took one minute to find: there was no phone number above the fold. Small fixes beat big redesigns more often than you'd think.
It's in Files with two other options.
A good week. Here's the one-page version:
- £4,800 invoiced and £3,100 paid. Two invoices are still late.
- You finished the Kestrel homepage and started the Linden review.
- Next week is busy: three client calls, and the Linden review is due Friday.
One suggestion: block Wednesday morning for the Linden work, because it's your only clear half-day.

While you sleep, the morning gets done.
Three routines are due before your first coffee. Each one runs on your own computer.
46 emails came in overnight. I drafted 9 replies and archived the newsletters. Two need you:

Here's today's LinkedIn post, from Tuesday's client call:

It already knows you
Your notes go in messy. Your bots come out knowing you.
Point Locul at your notes, files and documents. It asks first, then turns them into memories about your clients, work and decisions, each one linked to where it came from.
Yours, on your disk
This is your brain. It's a folder.
Every bot is four plain files on your computer. Read them, change them, back them up, move them to a new machine. Click a file to look inside.
~/Locul/bots/inbox-triage/{
"name": "Inbox Triage",
"team": "Inbox",
"can_see": ["email", "documents"]
}# Inbox Triage You sort my inbox every morning. - Draft replies in my voice. - Archive newsletters. - Tell me what needs me, in two lines. - Never send without asking.
- Marta prefers mornings. - The accountant needs the mileage log every quarter. - Kestrel invoices go to Daniel.

]The edge
Nothing leaves without a yes.
The edge of this box is the edge of your computer. Bots work freely inside it. When one wants to send, post, delete or spend AI credits, it stops at the edge and asks.
Your files stay put
Your notes and memory live in a folder on your computer. Nothing is uploaded to us or used for training.
Every run on record
Each bot keeps a log of what it did and when, so you can check its work.
You approve what leaves
Sending, posting, deleting and spending all wait for your yes.
No new AI to learn
Runs on the Claude you already have.
Your bots think with Claude through Claude Code on your computer, with your own sign-in and the apps you already connected. Your Locul memory also plugs into your other AI tools through MCP.
Questions
Do bots run when Locul is closed?
Yes. Schedules keep running with the window closed while your computer is on. If it was asleep, a run missed in the last 12 hours catches up when it wakes, and a failed run tries again up to 3 times.
What do I need?
A Mac or a Windows PC, and Claude Code signed in with your own account. Your bots think with that Claude and use the apps you already connected to it.
Where does my data go?
Into a folder on your computer. When a bot works on a task, it sends what that task needs to the AI model you chose. Your files are never uploaded to us or used for training, and the folder is yours to keep, move or delete.
Can I make my own bots?
Yes. Describe the job in plain English, for example "every Friday at 5, sum up my week", and Locul sets up the bot and its schedule. Change it later the same way.
Your work, done before you wake up.
Start with one bot and one job. Add the rest when you trust it.
What would you like me to look after?
