Brainwrite Cloud
Your own always-on computer that keeps your bots running when your Mac is closed.
Brainwrite Cloud gives you your own Brainwrite computer on the internet. It runs your bots around the clock, including routines and connected apps, even when your Mac is asleep or switched off. The desktop app, and the Brainwrite Mobile app when it is available, are windows onto it.
What you get
- Your own computer. One Cloud computer belongs to your account alone: an always-on Linux machine, sized by your plan. It runs in its own private network, and its data sits on its own storage volume, backed up daily and kept 14 days.
- Always on. It keeps running whether or not any of your devices are.
- The desktop app. Your plan also unlocks the Brainwrite desktop app on your Macs.

When a bot joins a meeting to take notes, transcribing it uses the same allowance: 1,500 characters for each 10 minutes of the meeting, so Pro's 60,000 cover about 6½ hours of meetings when no voice replies are used. When the allowance runs out, the bot transcribes on its cloud computer instead, which is slower to start (about a minute the first time).
Voice replies and meeting notes need no voice-provider key of your own, and research needs no key: bots can search X and look up companies, people, funding, news and more. See Connected apps. The allowances start again each month. Your Cloud page at cloud.brainwrite.app shows how much of each you have used.
Starter's limits
Starter's Cloud computer is the smallest and shares its CPU, so Starter keeps the work it runs at once small enough to stay responsive:
- Two tasks at once across the Cloud. A third waits and starts by itself when one finishes; its conversation says it is waiting. Up to 4 hand-offs between bots can wait beyond the ones running; past that a new one is refused, with a sentence saying why.
- One thread at a time per bot. A message for a bot already working in another thread is queued and says so; it starts when that thread's turn finishes.
- As many bots as you like, 5 awake, besides Brainwrite. A bot made past five starts paused, with everything it knows kept, and never pushes out one you were using; a paused bot that gets a message stays paused and says so. Swap awake bots chooses which five stay awake, or upgrade. Your Chief of Staff never sleeps.
Upgrading to Pro or Max lifts these at once and wakes every bot.
What is not included
AI usage is not included. On your Cloud computer you sign in with your own Claude or ChatGPT account, or add an API key, just as you do on your Mac. Your provider bills that usage, and its terms and limits apply. For bots that run all day, a Claude Max plan or an API key is recommended.
Your Cloud and your Mac
Once your Cloud is ready, the desktop app moves everything on your Mac to it, once, by itself: bots, chats, logins, secrets, routines and the rest. From then on the app opens your Cloud as its home. If your plan ends, everything comes back to your Mac. See Using the desktop app with My Cloud.
Your computer also works for your Cloud by itself while Brainwrite is open on it, so its bots can use your files, apps and connection: see Use your computer from your Cloud. Calls and dictation work on My Cloud too; see Calls on My Cloud.
