Kernl
Free forever. Pay for the extras.
The whole kernel and every core module are free and open under Apache-2.0 — forever. The only thing we sell is the extra extensions: buy the ones you want once, or get All-Access for every extension plus updates and new releases. Want it done for you? Our team installs, tunes and supports it.

Included in All-AccessA pre-configured 5-agent team that manages all your repos and virtual dev stacks.
Included in All-AccessBuild daily habits and watch your streaks grow — streaks, heatmap and a weekly report, all computed locally.
Included in All-AccessA television station on your own machine: seven channels of famous public-domain shows and films from archive.org, each on a real 24-hour schedule. You don't pick a video — you turn on the set, and whatever is airing is already in progress.
Included in All-AccessFilm and audio from institutional archives — the Library of Congress, Europeana and more — searchable side by side, with provenance and rights kept on every record.
Included in All-AccessYears of iPhone and Apple Watch history — weight, workouts, sleep, heart rate, steps — imported from a Health export and shown on the wellness panel. Every sample carries an identity, so re-importing a newer export adds only what is new.
Included in All-AccessReach your Kernl from anywhere through a Cloudflare tunnel that carries only the routes you publish — everything else answers 404 without your kernel ever seeing it. Plus DNS, cache, Workers, KV, R2 and D1 tools.
Included in All-AccessPublish to TikTok and keep the performance history TikTok does not. It snapshots your followers and every video daily, building the record the API never returns and the app drops after 60 days — so you can finally see which posts are still climbing and which died on day three.
Included in All-AccessA 5-agent team that runs your job search: it scans company job boards for openings, checks each posting is still live, scores it against your CV, flags the ones unlikely to be real, and keeps your follow-ups on time. It prepares everything — you decide what to send.
Included in All-AccessMulti-entity double-entry books, invoicing with the right tax and your filing calendar — jurisdiction packs for Argentina, the US and the Netherlands, and any other country you define. Everything you discuss is kept in an append-only dossier.
Included in All-AccessGDS-backed analytics over your own knowledge graph: community detection, PageRank, node embeddings, semantic similarity and enrichment. Browsing and editing the graph stays free — this unlocks the tools that compute over it. Needs Neo4j with the Graph Data Science plugin (included in the full Docker stack).
Included in All-AccessFrequently asked
Are the paid extensions open source?
The whole core (71 modules) is Apache-2.0, fully open — audit it, fork it, run it forever. The extra extensions are commercial: they ship as compiled JS plus a signed manifest inside a .kernl bundle, verified offline by the kernel.
One-time purchase or All-Access — what's the difference?
A one-time purchase means you own that extension forever, updates included. All-Access is a subscription that unlocks every paid extension — plus every new one we release — while you're subscribed. Buy à la carte for one or two; subscribe for the whole shelf.
Does the license phone home?
No. The license is a JWT signed offline. The kernel verifies its signature against an embedded public key — no network call needed. You can run an air-gapped install.
What happens if I cancel All-Access?
Any extension you bought à la carte stays yours forever. All-Access-only extensions return a friendly "subscription required" message and lock, while the free core keeps working exactly as before.
What's in the install + support service?
We install Kernl on your server (or one we manage), wire up your channels, LLM keys and data, and run a 1:1 onboarding call so it works end to end. An optional monthly retainer covers updates, monitoring and hands-on help. Email contact@lifekernl.com for a quote.
How do updates work?
Bought à la carte: you get updates to that extension. On All-Access: every extension updates automatically, and new releases land in your library at no extra cost.
Refunds, VAT and sales tax?
14-day refund, no questions asked. VAT and sales tax are handled automatically by Stripe Tax — the price you see is what you pay; local tax is itemised on the invoice.
What if I'm an OSS maintainer?
Email contact@lifekernl.com — we give free All-Access to maintainers of OSS projects with 1k+ stars or a significant community.
