A personal data
gateway for the AI era.
freezr provides an environment for storing personal data, and for building apps to interact with that data.
A Personal Data Store
With freezr, you can store your data in a space you control, be it on your own laptop, amazon AWS S3 or even Dropbox; in a mongo atlas database, or on azure cosmos or a local NeDb instance. freezr simply stores your credentials and provides a gateway for you, your AI, and your apps to access your data.
An App Creation Platform
Storing your personal data hasn't been too much fun until now. What would you do with that data? AI changes that. Now you can ask AI to build apps for you. Just plug in your AI API key and ask freezr's app creator to build the apps for you.. and then share YOUR apps with others so they can use them too.
Not only is freezr open source, it is also based on open protocols: a set of rules, and defined APIs that define the interfaces between data, apps, and users. This means any other server can integrate the same protocols and run freezr apps on their own infrastructure.
Each freezr app gets its own sandboxed data space. Apps can only see the data you give them permission to see. You are in full control of your apps, and freezr just helps you manage your permissions - who gets to access your data. That doesn't stop you from sharing whatever data you want with your friends.
Add in your ChatGPT or Claude API key to give freezr AI super powers. Use your own AWS or Azure or Dropbox key to keep your files where you want. Provide a mongo-compatible database URI to use your own database. Provide an AWS serverless key to run back-end code safely.
Since freezr takes care of all the backend infrastructure, the app creator doesn't need to bother with all those complications. It can focus on building the app you want it to build. It knows how to use the freezr API, so new apps can store data in your storage system.
Freezr is a personal personal server project, an experiment built atop the principle of data freedom.
It is NOT and never will be a for-profit venture or business. It has been a decade+ old hobby, accelerated by vibe-coding. It exists just because I think it is a better way to use the internet, and AI.
Technically, freezr is a thin layer of code that safekeeps your (database, file storage, serverless and LLM) keys and manages the permissions you grant for various apps and people to access those resources if you like. See the specs for more details.
