01What Hermes Jarvis Is and How It Works
Hermes Jarvis is a voice-activated AI assistant that runs on your Mac. It listens to you, thinks, and answers out loud in a real human voice. It also remembers everything you tell it and can do tasks like open websites, build apps, or give you a daily briefing.
In this episode, Julian shows how he talks to Hermes Jarvis like a butler. He says 'brief me' and it reads his notes, tells him what he worked on, and shows headlines from the last 24 hours. The system uses Hermes Agent with Noose Research and plugs into your Obsidian vault for memory.
When you speak, Hermes Jarvis figures out what you mean and sends the command down the right path. For example, if you say 'build' it knows to create something. If you say 'show me' it pulls up a panel.
Everything else becomes a chat. This makes it easy to control your computer without typing or clicking.
02Main Features of Hermes Jarvis
Hermes Jarvis has six main powers you can use by just speaking. Here's what it can do:
- Voice talking – Tap the glowing core and speak. It answers in a real voice. You can also turn on a wake word for hands-free use.
- Daily briefings – Say 'brief me' and it reads your notes, open tasks, recent work, and news headlines out loud.
- Build by voice – Say 'build me a game' and it creates a working app on your Mac. Everything it builds saves to a gallery you can revisit.
- Show me panels – Ask 'show me my builds' or 'show me the numbers' and a panel slides up with live data.
- Remember that – Say 'remember that I want to film on Tuesdays' and it saves it to your notes. Later ask 'what do you remember about filming?' and it recalls it.
- Open and use computer – Say 'open juliangoldie.com' and it opens the website. It can also use browser and computer actions.
All conversations log to your Obsidian memory automatically. That means your AI agents share context across the whole system.
03How to Set Up Hermes Jarvis on Your Mac
Setting up Hermes Jarvis is straightforward. Julian walks through the process inside the Agent Operating System. Here are the steps:
- Get the Agent OS – Go to AIProfitBoarding.com or click the link in the comments. This gives you the full system with Hermes, Jarvis, and Obsidian memory pre-configured.
- Open the glowing core – On your Mac, click the core screen. This is your main interface for voice commands.
- Enable the wake word – Turn on warm mode so you can say 'Hermes' or 'Jarvis' from across the room without tapping.
- Connect your Obsidian vault – Link your notes so the system can read and write to your memory. This happens automatically inside the Agent OS.
- Test a briefing – Say 'brief me' or click the briefing tab. The system reads your day and shows headlines. You can check the clock icon to see old briefs.
- Start building – Say 'build me a game' or any app idea. The system creates it and saves it to your gallery for later.
No coding is required. Julian says even members who never used AI before have set up their own systems this way.
04How to Use Hermes Jarvis in Your Daily Routine
Julian shows several examples of using Hermes Jarvis day to day. The main use is the daily briefing. You click the briefing button or say 'brief me' and the assistant reads your entire morning plan out loud.
It tells you what you worked on, groups tasks into themes, and lists headlines from the last 24 hours.
Another example is asking for a system check. Say 'show me the numbers' and it pulls up a breakdown of recent activity and builds. You can also say 'show me myself on the wall' to see your builds in a full-screen command center.
This is great for a second monitor.
You can also build apps with your voice. Say 'build me a game' and watch it appear live on your Mac. All builds save to a gallery so you can play with them later.
If you want to open a website, say 'open juliangoldie.com' and it opens instantly.
Finally, use the memory feature. Say 'remember that' followed by anything you want to save. Later ask 'what did I work on yesterday?' and it reads your notes back.
It also logs all conversations to your Obsidian vault so your other AI agents see them.
05Results and Comparisons Shown in the Episode
Julian demonstrates Hermes Jarvis running on his Mac inside the Agent Operating System. He shows that it has built 90 different things using voice commands. Each build saves to a gallery that you can preview or open full screen.
He compares this to other AI assistants that forget everything. Julian says 'my AI forgets everything. This one writes your Obsidian vault, your own notes, so it remembers across days.' The system stores one tidy entry per day per type.
Running the same brief twice just updates it instead of creating duplicates.
The results are fast. Headlines are from within 24 hours, not old articles. The voice is real and human-sounding.
Julian notes that members inside AI Profit Boarding who never used AI before are already building systems like this. He says 'if they're doing it and I'm doing it and I'm not a coder, then we can all do it.'
The briefing history is a standout feature. You tap the clock to see daily and weekly entries newest first. Each one shows action items, notes touched, recent focus, and themes.
This helps you track progress over time without messy lists.
06Tips, Limits, and Mistakes to Avoid
Julian shares several tips to get the most out of Hermes Jarvis. First, don't treat it like a gimmick. Many people think AI voice agents are just toys for asking one question.
Instead, use it as your main daily interface. He opens it before anything else every day.
Second, use the wake word for hands-free. You can be making breakfast and say 'Hermes' to activate it. This reduces friction and makes you use it more often.
Avoid the mistake of setting it up in a separate tool or tab. Julian says 'if this was set up in a separate tab or a separate tool, I would just never use it because it'd be too difficult.' Keep everything in the Agent OS so you come back to it every day.
Another limit is that speech-to-text can run locally or with 11 labs. If you want faster or more accurate transcription, use the cloud option. But local mode works offline.
Finally, don't worry about messy notes. The system saves one tidy entry per day per type. Running the same brief twice updates it rather than duplicating it.
So your vault stays clean.
07Who Hermes Jarvis Is For and Why It Matters
Hermes Jarvis is for anyone who wants to stop typing, clicking, and digging through apps. Julian says 'I don't need to type, I don't need to scroll, I don't need to dig through five different apps.' If you run a business, blog, or creative project, this system saves you hours each day.
It's also for non-coders. Julian emphasizes that members inside AI Profit Boarding who had never touched AI before are already building their own agent operating systems. You just talk like a person and it works.
Why it matters: Julian predicts that within six months, a computer that talks back and runs your day will be normal. People building this now will be way ahead. The full setup with shared memory and context means your agents understand your business and remember everything.
Every new feature like the briefing makes the whole system stronger.
