Your personal AI — news, mail, markets, weather, search and more, all through one interface. No ads. No tracking. No algorithm.
Mu is a personal AI platform. Ask it anything — it checks your mail, looks up prices, searches the web, reads the news, and gives you a personalised answer. Every service is a tool the AI can use on your behalf.
The AI remembers your preferences across sessions, surfaces contextual suggestions based on your data, and learns what you care about over time.
Built in the open. Pay for the tools, not with your attention.
Live at micro.mu — or self-host your own instance.
Open Mu and you see a prompt: "What do you need?" Below it, contextual suggestions based on your current state — unread emails, market movements, latest news. Ask a question or tap a suggestion. The AI checks your services, composes an answer, and shows it inline.
Below the AI, cards give you an at-a-glance overview of everything: news headlines, market prices, blog posts, social threads, video. Cards are configurable — show or hide what you care about.
- AI Agent — Ask anything. It searches news, checks markets, reads your mail, fetches weather, searches the web, and synthesises an answer. Remembers your preferences.
- News — Headlines from RSS feeds, chronological, with AI summaries
- Markets — Live crypto, futures, and commodity prices
- Mail — Private messaging and email
- Blog — Microblogging with daily AI-generated digests
- Chat — Conversational AI with session history
- Video — YouTube without ads, algorithms, or shorts
- Web — Search the web without tracking
- Weather — Forecasts and conditions
- Apps — Build and use small, useful tools — any app can be pinned as a home card
- Stream — Public event feed for agents and tools to subscribe to
Runs as a single Go binary. Self-host your own instance.
Mu exposes a REST API and MCP server at /mcp so AI agents and tools can connect directly.
{
"mcpServers": {
"mu": {
"url": "https://micro.mu/mcp"
}
}
}30+ tools — news, search, weather, places, video, email, markets — accessible via MCP. AI agents can pay per-request with USDC through the x402 protocol. No API keys. No accounts. Just call and pay. First 10 calls per wallet are free.
See MCP docs
Every MCP tool is also available as a mu subcommand. The same binary runs the server (mu --serve) and the CLI.
mu news # latest news feed
mu news_search "ai safety" # search news
mu chat "hello" # chat with the AI
mu agent "what is the btc price?" # run the full agent
mu web_search "claude code" # search the web
mu weather_forecast --lat 51.5 --lon -0.12
mu me # your account
mu help # full tool listThe CLI is registry-driven — every tool added to the MCP server automatically becomes a CLI command.
mu login # opens /token in your browser, paste the PAT back
mu config set token xxx # or set it directly
