Argo

A wearable computer, run by agents you own

Argo Exo

Your agents can propose anything. Only your rules and your finger move the money.

Exo is a computer you wear: display glasses, earbuds and a few keys on a sling. Hold a button and speak to your own open-source agents. Every transaction they propose is simulated, checked against your rules by a Chainlink CRE workflow, explained in your ear, and sent only when you press the approve key.


Pre-order

§ I.The Apparatus

Twelve parts of one idea: hand the routine to AI agents without handing over your keys, and without being stuck at a screen. Some of it you wear, some of it runs on a server you own, and some of it lives onchain where no one can quietly change it.

Engraving of a small computer with a display, worn on a strap.
Fig. 1. The wearable computer.

A Raspberry Pi in a sling, display glasses and earbuds. Your agents, your wallet and your notes, worn rather than opened.

cf. §C1
Engraving of a push button wired to a small microphone.
Fig. 2. Push-to-talk.

Hold the talk key, speak, release. Your words become text and go to your agents; the answer comes back in your ears and as a line in your glasses.

cf. §C2
Engraving of a camera lens with a closed aperture.
Fig. 3. On-command camera and memos.

A clip-on camera and a memo button. Photos, clips and voice notes only when you press, with a red light facing outward while it's on.

cf. §C3
Engraving of a screen divided into columns of cards.
Fig. 4. The Argo dashboard.

Talk, agents, approvals, transactions, wallets and more, in your glasses. Switch panels by voice, by a button or with keys 1 to 9.

cf. §C4
Engraving of three linked circles.
Fig. 5. Agents you own.

Six open-source Hermes agents on your own server: a librarian, a researcher, wallet, trader and portfolio agents, and a builder. They share a kanban board, not your keys.

cf. §C5
Engraving of a safe with a combination dial.
Fig. 6. Agent Safe and cold storage.

The agents work from a capped Safe smart account. Your savings sit with a cold key that never goes online and owns everything, including the power to cut the agent off.

cf. §C6
Engraving of a shield, half hatched.
Fig. 7. The Transaction Guardian.

Every proposed transaction is simulated against live Ethereum state, checked against rules the agent can't see, and approved onchain for that exact transaction only. A Chainlink CRE workflow, in simulation today.

cf. §C7
Engraving of an old key.
Fig. 8. The approve key.

A lit mechanical keyswitch on the deck. It blinks when a checked transaction is waiting; you hear what it does, then press once. Hold it with the mic key to freeze the wallet.

cf. §C7
Engraving of a hub with many radiating spokes.
Fig. 9. Every chain call through NOWNodes.

Simulation, broadcast and balances on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum and Polygon through one NOWNodes key, with more than 100 networks behind it.

cf. §C8
Engraving of an open book.
Fig. 10. Your second brain.

Memos, photos and notes are filed into a plain-markdown second brain your agents can read and answer from. Notes stop being write-only.

cf. §C5
Engraving of a rack of servers.
Fig. 11. Open source, your own server.

MIT-licensed, on GitHub: the deck, the Guardian, the Safe module and the pre-order contract. Your agents run on your server, with the models you choose.

cf. §C10
Engraving of a seal with a serrated edge.
Fig. 12. A numbered receipt onchain.

Your pre-order mints Argo Exo · Apparatus No. N to your wallet, with your device number engraved onchain.

Concept renders

How the printed parts are meant to look. These are generated renders, not photographs; the people are invented. Read about the design

The complete kit laid out on pale grey: Pi case and power sled, glasses case, remote panel with an orange talk key and green approve key, camera clip and strap. A fingertip about to press the green-lit approve keyswitch on the chest-mounted panel. A woman wearing display glasses and the sling, pressing the orange talk key while she speaks.

§ II.The Kits

Exo ships fully assembled, tested button by button, and numbered. Choose the deck alone if you already own compatible glasses, or the complete kit. Prices are set in the pre-order contract and appear here the moment it opens. Until then, nothing on this page is a price.

§ III.The Pre-order

Pay in USDC on Base from your own wallet. In the same transaction you receive an onchain receipt, Argo Exo · Apparatus No. N, where N is your device number, in the order the pre-orders arrive. Your wallet signs a maximum price, so the price can't change under you between the click and the block.

Terms of the pre-order


§ IV.Questions

Can the AI agent spend my money?

No. The agents can only propose a transaction. A Chainlink CRE workflow simulates it, checks it against your rules and writes an approval for that exact transaction onchain. Then you press the approve key. The key on the device holds only gas, and your savings sit with a cold key that never goes online.

What does the Guardian refuse?

Anything over your limits, payments to strangers above your threshold, unlimited token approvals, approvals to unknown contracts, setApprovalForAll, anything built from a camera photo, anything that reverts, and anything whose effects don't match what the agent said it would do. Today it also refuses swaps, marketplace purchases and votes, because it doesn't decode those functions yet. It refuses what it doesn't understand.

Is it live on Ethereum mainnet?

The Guardian runs in Chainlink's CRE simulator against live mainnet data, and has approved and refused real transactions there. It isn't deployed to a Chainlink DON or a TEE yet. We'll say so plainly until it is.

Does it record all the time?

No. The camera takes a photo or a clip only when you press its button, and the microphone listens only while you hold talk or record a memo. A red light faces outward whenever either is on.

What else do I need?

Your own Hermes agent server (a small cloud server is enough), a Deepgram key for speech, display glasses that take a USB-C DisplayPort signal (or the complete kit, which includes them) and a wallet with USDC on Base.

Is it open source?

Yes. The deck, the Guardian workflow, the Safe module, the pre-order contract and the wiring guide are MIT-licensed on GitHub. You can read every line that touches your wallet, and run all of it without us.

When does it ship?

Exo is built by hand in small batches. We'll email every holder a shipping window before their batch is built. We won't promise a date we can't keep.


Field Notes

  1. Before the Guardian: Who Checks a Payment Before It Leaves

    Banks, brokers and wallet companies have all built a checkpoint between "I want to pay" and "the money moved". Here is that lineage, and what Exo's Chainlink CRE Guardian changes about it.

  2. Sixty-Five Years of Wearable Computers, and Why Now

    From a roulette computer hidden in a shoe to AI glasses outselling expectations: what wearable computing got wrong for decades, what changed in the last three years, and the bet Exo makes.

  3. An Agent With a Wallet, a Human With a Key: Exo's Security Model

    How Exo splits money across a cold key, an agent Safe and a gas-only hot key; the technologies that guard each step; the attacks they stop; and eight real incidents, from BadgerDAO to Bybit, measured against the design.

  4. Inside Exo: The Dashboard, the Voice Loop and the Agents

    A tour for the onchain operator: every panel on the glasses, the buttons and voice commands that move between them, how push-to-talk replaces the keyboard, and how six open-source Hermes agents share a kanban board and build new chain skills.

  5. How Exo Talks to Four Chains Through NOWNodes, and Why the Approve Key Is a Keyswitch

    Which chains Exo uses, every place it calls NOWNodes (from the Guardian's simulations to the wallet panel), how the client and proxy are built, and why a glowing NOWNodes keyswitch on the wearable is a security control, not decoration.

  6. The Chainlink CRE Guardian, In Depth

    How Exo's Transaction Guardian works end to end: the policy format, onboarding step by step, what runs under the hood, what happens on approval and on refusal, how to change your rules and your address book, and a long list of transactions it will and won't let through.

  7. Designing exo-1: An Instrument, Not a Gadget

    The concept renders for Exo's printed parts: a bone-white and warm-grey body, one signal orange, a glowing green approve key, tiny lowercase labels and exposed screws. Why each choice, what each part does, and what's still only a render.
