One service instead of four. We do the rest.

The four things you would otherwise put together

Putting an assistant like this together yourself usually means four separate things: a server to rent and patch, an AI account with a key to hold and a bill that moves with use, backup software, and the updates. That is four bills, and four things to look after when something goes wrong.

Steward Host is one sign-up and one bill. We do those four jobs, and you just use the assistant.

What you get

• One private server

  A small machine per customer, yours alone. Nothing shared with anyone else.

• The KJ assistant on it

  Installed, paired to your phone and kept up to date. You use it through the assistant, never by logging in.

• AI credit, every month

  Credit for the assistant as its own monthly subscription: Starter A$10, Everyday A$25 or Power A$60. It is added to your balance each month and it never expires. Nothing tops you up on its own: when you are running low, ask the assistant for more credit and it charges your card for that amount there and then, after telling you what it costs.

• Encrypted backups

  Backed up nightly and encrypted, so your box can be brought back if something goes wrong.

• Updates and monitoring

  We patch the machine and watch its health, so a problem is caught before it reaches you.

• One support address

  Email us and we reply within one business day. One channel, so nothing gets lost.

What it costs

Free for the first 14 days, then from A$49.00 a month ex GST, which is A$53.90 with GST. You leave a card or a wallet when you sign up and nothing is charged during the trial; when the 14 days are up the plan starts by itself on that card, and you can stop before then.

That is two monthly subscriptions, named separately on one bill: your server, and your assistant credit. There is nothing for you to pick: everyone starts on the entry combination, and if you outgrow it the assistant tells you what the next step costs and we move you up.

The entry combination is the Assistant server and the Starter credit, A$39.00 plus A$10.00, so A$49.00 a month ex GST. Everything else, the assistant set up and paired, the updates, the encrypted backups, the monitoring and the support, comes with the service.

Ask the assistant how your credit is going and it tells you. You never have to go and look.

Live talk is provisional, from our own test turn, with the low end assuming about half of an open session is listening, thinking and setup; messages are provisional, from our own test turn, with the low end assuming about 10,000 input tokens of instructions and history plus a 500 token reply per exchange. Shown at metered cost with a 0% credit markup. Both figures are recomputed from the credit ledger as usage arrives.

The sign-up page is the authoritative record of what we charge. We are registered for GST, and the GST is set out on your invoice.

What it is not

• Not a web host

  Your server runs the assistant, not apps or sites that serve other people.

• Not an emergency service

  A personal assistant, not life support. Do not rely on it for anything urgent or safety-critical.

• Not always right

  The assistant's answers are generated by AI models. Check anything important before you act on it.

How to start

1. Sign up at the sign-up page. It takes a card or a wallet and starts your free 14 days. Nothing is charged today.

2. We set up your server, put the KJ assistant on it, and add your AI credit.

3. We pair your phone, and you start using it, with the updates, backups and monitoring already running.
