Hi — you’re receiving this because you joined the Telepath waitlist. Today we’re sharing an early look at Television, our new visual workspace for personal agents.

For a while now, we at Telepath have been predicting a new kind of personal computer, one that adapts to the user instead of the other way around, and that trades pre-made applications for generative, personalized interfaces.

Personal agents like OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, and Codex are the first clear glimmers of that new personal computer. They have powerful capabilities, but their chat-based interfaces leave users stuck in the MS-DOS era.

If you joined this newsletter, you probably already feel this: agents need a better interface.

That’s why we created Television. It’s the missing GUI for your personal agent. It works with any agent harness, giving you virtual screens on which you and your agent can create and work with visual HTML artifacts. Artifacts can be anything from static visualizations, to editable documents, to entire vibe-coded web apps. Your agent uses the Television skill to create and modify artifacts on your TV, based on your requests and needs.

Television is useful for computing tasks that don’t fit with an infinitely scrolling stream of text. Turns out that’s a lot of tasks, which is why so much of computing moved to the GUI forty years ago. A few examples include dashboards, agentic coding, online research, long-running projects, working on documents, and interacting with web apps and services. But there are loads more just waiting to be discovered.

We think Television is the start of a new kind of user experience, one built less around fixed apps and more around reusable skills that can generate interfaces as needed. It’s a first step toward freeing users from the constraints of traditional software.

Recently, the Nous Research team invited us to demo Television for the over 250 people in the Hermes community. The response echoed what we’ve been hearing from early alpha users: Television is a much-needed new way to work with agents, and an early glimpse of a broader shift in how agentic software is experienced.

Television will be open source, but right now we’re doing invite-only alpha testing. You’re receiving this because you’re already on the waitlist; if you’d like to get our attention for priority access, please help spread the word by posting about Television and mention @telepathinc!
