What is Evonic?

Evonic is an agentic AI platform built for open models. It lets you create AI agents powered by any OpenAI-compatible LLM — local, cloud, or anything in between. Agents can use tools, access knowledge bases, communicate across channels, and collaborate with each other.

Key Features

Agent platform — design and deploy AI agents with custom models, tools, and knowledge bases
Multi-channel — connect agents to Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, and the web
Tool system — extend agent capabilities with tools, skills, and plugins
Evaluation — test and benchmark agent performance
Isolated sandbox — safe execution of agent code in Docker containers
Evonet — mesh network for multi-device agent deployment

Quick Start

Install Evonic — one-command install or manual setup
Configure — set up your environment and model endpoints
Create a Super Agent — set up the platform administrator
Build your first agent — test it right away

What’s New in v0.3.19

New Branding

The Evonic mascot has been updated! The new mascot.png logo appears in the navigation bar and throughout the UI, giving the platform a fresh, modern look.

Portal Feature

Agents can now access external directories through virtual path mapping — the Portal system. This allows agents to read and write files on local, SSH, or Evonet-connected remote filesystems using /_portal/ paths.

Improved Sandbox

Sandbox containers now use the evonic-<session-id> naming pattern, include automatic stale container cleanup, and offer the new evonic clear-sandbox CLI command for manual cleanup.
