Open source release coming soon
The travel AI that doesn’t sell your trips—
is becoming open source.
I built Toqui as a privacy-first AI travel companion. It works. It’s interesting. But running it as a commercial product is more time and capital than I want to spend.
So I’m doing the next-best thing: I’m open-sourcing it.
What it’s becoming
A self-hostable travel manager and chat app, released under the AGPL-3.0-or-later license.
- You bring your own AI API key. No middle-tier billing, no usage caps.
- You own your data. Run it on your own server; it never leaves your control.
- The privacy story becomes the default. No tracking, no data sale, no ad networks — baked into what you self-host.
- AGPL keeps it that way. Anyone who hosts a modified version has to publish their changes, so the privacy story can’t be quietly undone downstream.
What’s changing
- No new signups on toqui.travel.
- The hosted app at app.toqui.travel is being wound down.
- The source code will be published on GitHub once the SaaS plumbing is stripped out.
Want to know when it’s out?
Drop me a line. I’ll send a single email when the repo is public.
