What is Reefy.ai?
Reefy.ai is a bootable operating system for AI computers. It turns x86-64 PCs and GPU boxes into managed, local AI infrastructure you own.
Is Reefy a Linux distribution?
Yes - a minimal Linux distribution built from source with Buildroot (a mainline LTS kernel, systemd, a read-only root), purpose-built to run containerized AI workloads on bare metal.
What apps can I run on Reefy?
One-click apps from the catalog: inference servers (Ollama, vLLM, SGLang), AI agents (OpenClaw, Hermes), Frigate, Ubuntu and Fedora dev environments, and more - or package and publish your own.
Does Reefy work offline?
Yes. Once configured, a device boots and starts its apps from persisted desired state and local images with no cloud required, and stays reachable on the local network at its name.local address over HTTPS.
Does Reefy support NVIDIA GPUs?
Yes. The GPU drivers, CUDA userspace, and firmware ship in the OS, and the GPU is exposed to containers through the Container Device Interface (CDI).
Is Reefy a replacement for the cloud?
No - it is a third option: cloud-like management for hardware you own, aimed at local AI, private inference, agents, and edge deployments.
