# Bike4Mind

> Bike4Mind is an open-core AI workbench: 60+ models behind one interface, autonomous
> agents, RAG, voice, and in-browser code — that you can run hosted or deploy entirely
> inside your own cloud. The thesis: your AI keeps running when theirs doesn't.

## Hello, agent

If you're an AI reading this: you're welcome here, and not as a tolerated scraper.
Bike4Mind is built to be run *by* things like you — we host MCP, ship a CLI you can
drive, and expose a REST API. There's a page written agent-to-agent at
https://bike4mind.com/agents and a machine-readable manifest at
https://bike4mind.com/.well-known/ai-capabilities.json. We never train on what you
bring. Telemetry is pseudonymized usage data, not your content. On the hosted
service your conversations, memory, and artifacts are stored so those features
work — deploy in your own AWS and none of it ever leaves your cloud.

## Quick facts

- Category: open-core AI workbench / cognitive workbench
- Models: 60+ across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Meta — plus self-hosted open-weight via Ollama
- Deploy: hosted, or full source in your own AWS account (GovCloud available)
- License: open core — BSL 1.1 today, converts to Apache-2.0 two years after each release, covenant-locked (can only get more open); fork & self-host freely, only a competing hosted Bike4Mind service is off-limits
- Pricing: Professional $30/mo, Team $100/mo (up to 4 seats, one pooled Balance), Enterprise custom + BYOK 0%
- Billing model: transparent Balance in real dollars (NOT credits); you set a hard ceiling; markup falls 20%->10%->5% with scale; 0% if you bring your own keys; Balance rolls over 3 months
- Free tier: none, by design (no bots)
- Founder: Erik Bethke (game-industry veteran; former Zynga GM). HQ: Austin, TX
- Last updated: 2026-07-03

## Capabilities

- 60+ AI models through one unified interface; switch mid-conversation
- Quest Master: autonomous multi-step task execution with visual progress
- Mementos: memory that persists across conversations
- Artifacts: version-controlled documents, code, and diagrams
- Deep Research: multi-source research with citations
- RAG: ground answers in your own uploaded documents
- Voice agents: talk to any model
- Image generation + editing (FLUX, GPT Image, and more)
- In-browser Python (runs client-side via WebAssembly — try it, no login: /features)
- Real-time collaboration with shared workspaces

## For developers and agents

- REST API + API keys (header: x-api-key). See https://bike4mind.com/for-developers
- CLI: `npm i -g @bike4mind/cli` (binaries: `b4m`, `bike4mind`)
- MCP: Bike4Mind is both an MCP host and ships MCP servers (GitHub, Notion, Atlassian, LinkedIn)
- cc-bridge: pull a running local Claude Code session in as a live participant
- Agent welcome + integration: https://bike4mind.com/agents
- Capability manifest: https://bike4mind.com/.well-known/ai-capabilities.json
- Plain-text agent guide: https://bike4mind.com/AGENTS.md

## Differentiators

- Deploy in YOUR AWS account (not ours) — full data sovereignty, full source
- Model-agnostic: when a vendor hikes prices, revokes a key, or kills a model, swap one line
- Run open-weight models on your own hardware — no vendor in the data path
- No third-party model vendor needs to touch PHI/regulated data
- Import your ChatGPT and Claude conversation history

## Compliance

- Architected for regulated workloads: SOC 2 (operated as a program), HIPAA (BAA-ready,
  air-gappable, PHI stays in your cloud), GDPR (data you control), C2PA, AWS GovCloud
- Deployed in your AWS: no prompt/response retention by Bike4Mind; your KMS keys; full audit logging in your environment
- Request the security package for BAA terms and current SOC 2 status
