What is WednesdayAI?

WednesdayAI is a self-hosted AI gateway. It runs on your own machine (or a server you control) and connects your favorite messaging apps — WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage, Signal, Slack, Discord, and more — to AI agents. You message it the same way you message anyone else. WednesdayAI handles the rest: routing your message to an AI model, running any tools the agent needs, and sending a reply back to you.

​
What can it do?

  • Chat with AI from any messaging app you already use — no new app to install
  • Use tools — the agent can run code, search the web, read and write files, control a browser, and more
  • Remember context across a conversation — sessions persist so the agent knows what you were working on
  • Run on your own hardware — your data stays on your machine, your rules
  • Work across multiple channels at once — the same agent responds whether you message it on WhatsApp or Telegram

​
How it works

Your messages travel through a single gateway process that your administrator runs. The gateway:
  1. Receives your message from a connected channel (WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.)
  2. Routes it to the configured AI agent and model
  3. Runs any tool calls the agent makes
  4. Sends the reply back to you
The gateway is the single source of truth for conversations, sessions, and channel connections. You never have to think about it — it just works.

​
What do you need?

As a user, nothing special. You need:
  • An account on a supported messaging platform (WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.)
  • To be paired with the gateway by your admin (or yourself, if you’re self-hosting)
  • That’s it — the AI is ready to use via the channel you already have
If you’re setting up WednesdayAI for yourself, start with Getting started in the Administrators section.
