_The open-source platform brings agentic AI to hardware people own, giving users
greater control over how their AI runs and how their data is used._

TOKYO, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Olares, the company behind the open-source [Olares OS](https://www.olares.com/os),
today showcased its operating system on Intel® Core™ Ultra–powered AI NAS at Intel’s
AI NAS & Thunderbolt™ Technology Forum in Tokyo. The showcase highlighted how users
can run AI agents that work with their files and applications on hardware they own.

Running a model is only one part of building a useful personal AI system. Agents
also need access to the files, applications and tools involved in a task. Olares
OS brings these resources together in one environment, helping users put AI agents
to work in their everyday workflows.

"Choosing a personal AI system is a long-term decision," said Peng Peng, Founder
and CTO of Olares. "People should be able to change the models they use, add applications
and decide where their data is processed as their needs evolve. That flexibility
is central to how we’re building Olares OS."

**Agents, models and apps in one personal cloud**

Key capabilities of Olares OS include:

 ◦ **Shared access to AI models.** Olares Router gives agents and applications a
   common gateway to local models and other configured AI services, with model connections
   and access controls managed in one place.

 ◦ **Task execution in plain language.** Lares, the Olares-native AI agent, uses
   configured models and tools to carry out multi-step tasks across files, applications
   and system services. Users can ask Lares to handle everyday tasks such as organizing
   files and checking system status. It can also take on more complex work, including
   deploying applications, conducting in-depth research, and generating images and
   videos through FlowStudio, an AI media creation app.

 ◦ **An ecosystem of more than 200 apps.**[Olares Market](https://www.olares.com/market/)
   offers one-click installation of apps and supported AI models. Users can deploy
   models such as Qwen3.8-27B alongside apps including Home Assistant for smart 
   home integration and n8n for workflow automation.

 ◦ **AI across work, creativity and home.** From transcribing meeting recordings
   to generating images, videos and music locally, Olares supports a range of personal
   AI workflows. With the relevant integrations configured, users can also ask Lares
   to control connected smart home devices in natural language.

These capabilities are accessible across devices, at home or on the go, while the
underlying apps, local models and data remain on users’ own hardware.

[Olares One](https://www.olares.com/one), the company’s personal AI cloud device,
pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile
GPU to support demanding local generative AI workloads. Olares OS can also be installed
on other compatible systems, with supported workloads depending on the hardware 
configuration.

"Home is the new edge," said Gordon Sylin, Global Head of NAS at Intel. "The AI 
NAS is growing from the place you store your life into the place your agents live,
and Intel Core Ultra was built for exactly this: edge AI that runs all day, at home,
on hardware people own. Olares OS shows what our partner ecosystem can deliver when
the operating system is designed for agents from day one."

**An open platform for partners**

Olares is inviting AI NAS manufacturers, original design manufacturers (ODMs) and
system integrators to explore Olares OS for compatible Intel Core Ultra–based systems.
Its open-source software and application ecosystem provide a foundation for products
that combine personal storage with AI agents and applications.

Olares One raised $2.34 million on Kickstarter in January 2026 and has fulfilled
all backer orders. To learn more about Olares OS and explore its open-source code,
