Documentation

Everything you need to know.

From first setup to advanced configuration. Step-by-step guides for every part of Chatsey.

Overview

Chatsey is an AI agent platform built for enterprise. Your agents run on serverless infrastructure, independent of any gateway or local process. They answer to you and no one else.

Setting up your first agent takes about 5 minutes:

  1. Download your agent -- one click, everything included
  2. Name it -- give it an identity, personality, and boundaries
  3. Give it a brain -- connect your API key (Gemini is free)
  4. Add skills -- browse curated, reviewed skill packs
  5. Start talking -- connect on Telegram or iMessage
Your API key is set up once and automatically used by all future agents.

Download Your Agent

Click "Download" from the setup page. Your agent package includes everything needed to run -- no terminal, no Docker, no configuration files. Just download and open.

The download is a self-contained agent configuration that connects to Chatsey's serverless infrastructure. Nothing runs on your machine.

Identity Setup

Every Chatsey agent has a cryptographically signed identity, powered by the Identity Engine (patent pending). When you name your agent, you're setting:

This identity is SHA-256 signed and tamper-evident. Your agent cannot be impersonated or have its personality overridden by prompt injection.

Connect an API Key

Chatsey uses BYOK (Bring Your Own Key). You provide your own AI API key, and we never charge you for AI usage. Supported providers:

  1. Go to aistudio.google.com/apikey
  2. Click "Create API Key"
  3. Copy the key and paste it into your agent setup
Gemini 2.0 Flash is the default model. Free, fast, and works everywhere.

All everyday skills are included free. Browse the full catalog on the Skills page.

Connect a Channel

Channels are how you communicate with your agent. No special app required.

Telegram

Your agent gets its own Telegram bot. To set it up:

  1. Open Telegram and message @BotFather
  2. Type /newbot and follow the prompts
  3. Copy the bot token and paste it into your agent setup
  4. Your agent will send you a welcome message automatically

iMessage

Your agent gets a dedicated Apple ID. Message it directly from any iPhone, iPad, or Mac. iMessage channel is in early access.

Identity Engine

The Identity Engine is Chatsey's patent-pending system for giving AI agents persistent, tamper-evident identity. Unlike other platforms where agent personality can be overridden by prompt injection, a Chatsey agent's identity is cryptographically signed.

Key properties:

BYOK Model

BYOK stands for Bring Your Own Key. Chatsey never charges you for AI usage. You connect your own API key from any supported provider, and your usage is billed directly by that provider (or free, in Gemini's case).

Benefits:

Hive Memory

Hive Memory is Chatsey's shared intelligence system. Every agent in your deployment contributes to and benefits from collective knowledge. Patterns learned by one agent become available to all.

This means your agents get smarter over time without any manual training.

War Room

The War Room is Chatsey's multi-agent collaboration system. Multiple specialist agents work together in real time -- researching, executing, and reviewing simultaneously. It's not a relay race where one agent passes to the next. It's a boardroom.

Tool Forge

When your agent encounters a task it doesn't have a tool for, Tool Forge lets it write the tool itself -- generates it, tests it, and deploys it. No marketplace. No waiting for someone else to build what you need.

Safe Autonomy

Every action your agent takes passes through an audit layer. Irreversible actions require human approval. Full audit trail on everything. Power you can explain to your board.

FAQ

Is Chatsey really free?

Yes. The platform, Identity Engine, skills, War Room, Hive Memory, and Tool Forge are all free. You pay only for AI usage through your own API key -- and Gemini's free tier is more than enough for personal use.

Do I need to keep my computer running?

No. Chatsey agents run on serverless infrastructure. They stay alive independently, even when your computer is off.

Can someone else influence my agent?

No. Chatsey agents have tamper-evident identity and don't use external gateways or community marketplaces. No outside source can influence your agent's behavior.

What data do you collect?

Your agent's memory is stored in your own Supabase instance. We don't have access to your conversations, API keys, or personal data. Everything is encrypted at rest.

Can I use multiple AI providers?

Yes. Each agent can use a different provider, or you can switch providers for an existing agent at any time.
