Unus Lumen releases GURU self-evolving Android AI framework as public beta
Start here
Unus Lumen, a one-person company in Bristol founded by Steven Newman, released GURU, a free AGPL-3.0 Android app that acts as a permission layer across 167 Android permissions with a tool registry of around 390 tools. The roughly 743 MB APK bundles a Termux userland, CPython 3.14, git, ffmpeg and a reverse-engineering toolchain, and the framework can write and register its own tools, skills and rooms. GURU routes model calls through an embedded Tor engine and supports cloud APIs, local Ollama or rented GPUs. It also ships an agent marketplace called Otio, where payments are not yet switched on. Newman describes it as a public beta without a professional security audit, saying the on-device encryption and Tor routing have not yet been professionally audited.
