Take back control.Keep AI inside your perimeter.
Lorenz turns chat, voice, retrieval, and task execution into a governed AI platform that can run locally, in-country, or on approved infrastructure without losing security posture.
Everything your AI assistant actually does
Available capabilities, controlled previews, and activation-gated work are labeled separately so implementation is never confused with production proof.
AI Chat & Multi-Agent
Work across chat, tasks, email, calendar, meetings, documents, and research while Lorenz routes models and tools through one governed runtime.
- Approved cloud, regional, and private model lanes
- Durable work packets with progress, evidence, and blocked states
- Guardian approval and Action Journal for operational effects
- Executive workspace across web and native iOS
MNEME & Source-Grounded Second Brain
Retrieve private documents quickly, then compile governed sources into citable knowledge with visible revisions, conflicts, permissions, and degradation state.
- MNEME and Advanced RAG for operational retrieval
- Second Brain pages with citations and immutable source lineage
- SharePoint-aware permissions and source authority
- Contextual Retrieval v2 in controlled, tenant-activation-gated preview
Durable Agent Graph & Project Agent
Supervise long-running agent work through immutable graphs, bounded retries, signed checkpoints, evidence, budgets, and explicit operator decisions.
- Project Agent from planning and cited research to fenced changes
- Repository tests and review evidence before draft-only publication
- Pause, resume, cancel, retry, and lineage on web and iOS
- Controlled v3 preview—not unrestricted autonomous delivery

Five-plane stack
Interface Plane
Web, mobile, and channel-facing surfaces for chat, voice, documents, people intelligence, and operator control.
Control Plane
FastAPI services coordinate auth, policy, routing, diagnostics, and workflow orchestration behind one governed backend.
Model Lanes
Local, sovereign, or approved external models can be attached behind one stable orchestration layer.
Data Plane
Relational truth, vector retrieval, lexical retrieval, and cache/queue layers support memory, tasks, and governed execution.
Execution + Governance
AEGIS, Action Journal, undo, heartbeat, and skill scoping keep powerful actions inside visible, recoverable boundaries.
Connected ecosystem
Native integrations extend Lorenz across communication, identity, retrieval, and controlled execution surfaces.
Messaging
Email, chat, webhooks, and connected communication channels under one governed surface.
Identity
Scoped auth, OAuth integrations, and tenant-aware access paths.
Voice & TTS
Speech workflows, voice identity, and policy-aware assistant playback.
Operations
Operator-ready UI, diagnostics, and mobile access paths for real deployment workflows.
Open source. Self-hosted. Your infrastructure.
Deploy Lorenz on your servers and keep architecture, data, and operations under your control while the model layer remains replaceable.
How Lorenz compares
A category-level view across personal open-source agents, self-hosted AI platforms, and premium enterprise suites. Detailed profiles and primary sources are available on the Compare page.
On smaller screens, focus this region and scroll horizontally to read every category.
| Decision area | Lorenz | Personal open source | Open-source platforms | Premium enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Lorenz Operate AI across people, knowledge, agents, models, and infrastructure under one evidence and policy plane. | Give an individual or technical team a powerful self-hosted assistant or agent computer. | Build private chat, RAG applications, agents, and visual workflows on infrastructure you manage. | Bring AI into an established productivity suite, cloud, enterprise-search layer, or system of record. |
| Hosting and model control | Lorenz Approved local, in-country, managed, and external lanes can share one policy contract; effective sovereignty depends on tenant configuration. | Strong local and self-host freedom; the operator owns hardening, provider choices, availability, and compliance. | Usually strong self-hosting and multi-model choice, with enterprise operations varying by product, edition, and license. | Strong managed controls and regional options, normally within the vendor's cloud and model ecosystem. |
| Enterprise identity and tenancy | Lorenz Tenant/user/role context, forced RLS in critical domains, governed corporate identity, scoped workspaces, and fail-closed erasure. | Often optimized for a trusted operator or project; team isolation and identity are deployment responsibilities. | Multi-user, SSO, RBAC, and ACL depth range from community features to enterprise editions. | Typically strong SSO, SCIM, RBAC, audit, lifecycle, and permission inheritance. |
| Knowledge and grounding | Lorenz MNEME plus a source-grounded Second Brain with citations, revision, conflict handling, ACL-first retrieval, and explicit degradation. | Useful memory and document context; enterprise permission propagation and source governance are commonly operator-built. | RAG and document chat are mature strengths, especially in Dify, AnythingLLM, Open WebUI, and LibreChat. | Strong connected company knowledge, often inheriting permissions from the vendor ecosystem or search index. |
| Actions, approval, and recovery | Lorenz Guardian decisions, risk/DLP policy, Action Journal, evidence, idempotency, work packets, and undo metadata share one control plane. | Powerful tools and configurable approvals; the safety and recovery contract depends on the chosen setup. | Tool approvals and workflow logs exist in leading products, while cross-workspace recovery semantics vary. | Strong administrative governance, with effect evidence and rollback shaped by each connected application. |
| Durable agent execution | Lorenz Controlled-preview immutable graphs, fenced leases, signed checkpoints, lineage, Project Agent, and web/iOS supervision. | Strong autonomous loops and scheduled work, generally optimized for direct operator control. | Visual workflows and agent graphs are a core strength for builder platforms; persistence models differ. | Rapidly expanding agent builders, registries, orchestration, and governance at enterprise scale. |
| Voice, mobile, and channels | Lorenz Web and native iOS, streaming voice, account-scoped voice identity, email/calendar/meeting work, and governed connected channels. | OpenClaw leads on chat-channel breadth; Agent Zero leads on a general agent desktop. | Primarily web-first; voice, desktop, embed, and mobile options vary by product. | Polished cross-device experiences and deep native distribution in existing work suites. |
| Adoption and ecosystem | Lorenz High-control operating model with an emerging ecosystem; several differentiated v3 capabilities are still preview or activation-gated. | Fast experimentation, active communities, broad plugins, and low entry cost. | Mature communities and quick local value; enterprise support and license terms differ. | Strongest distribution, support, procurement maturity, certifications, and connector estates. |
Built for control
Lorenz is optimized for organizations that need execution boundaries, deployment choice, tenant isolation, and auditable runtime behavior together.
Built for regulated work
Lorenz differentiates through one policy and evidence plane across knowledge, models, tools, approvals, durable agents, and recovery.
Built for change
Lorenz keeps the control plane stable while models and deployment lanes evolve, but premium suites currently lead on distribution, support, and connector breadth.
Security built into every layer
Lorenz protects sensitive AI workflows with explicit approvals, isolated tenants, governed retrieval, controlled execution, and continuous operational visibility.
Zero-Trust Identity
Identity is scoped by user and tenant so protected operations do not inherit broad ambient trust.
Multi-Tenant Isolation
Data, workspaces, execution paths, and recovery flows are isolated by tenant so teams can operate without cross-contamination risk.
Sensitive Routing
Confidential prompts and documents can be forced onto local or trusted in-country lanes instead of unsafe vendor defaults.
Action Journal + Undo
Every meaningful mutation can be reviewed in one auditable log, with deterministic recovery metadata where supported.
Heartbeat Monitoring
Continuous health checks surface failures early and support recovery across critical flows and background agents.
OCR + RAG Governance
Document ingestion, OCR routing, retrieval, and memory coherence stay under policy instead of becoming a hidden egress surface.
