# Run > Run is an AI-native system to run everything you need to do. Instead of juggling a separate AI chat tool, workflow builder, and set of point integrations, Run brings chat, flows, connected tools, content generation, and monitoring together in one system built around the work you're trying to accomplish. Run is built around a simple idea: AI should be practical, private, connected, and affordable. Run combines instant chat, scheduled and event-triggered flows, app integrations, content generation (images, video, podcasts, and social content), and open-source AI models in one AI-native system. Describe what you want to accomplish and Run works out how to get there: connect to 200+ apps and MCP servers, run recurring or event-based flows, and report back through a smart inbox with brief summaries. Run also continuously evaluates and runs the best open-weight and open-source models behind the scenes, so users focus on the work instead of comparing models, benchmarks, or providers. ## Key Facts - Company: Run (runeverything.ai), founded in Africa with the ambition to compete on a global scale, including a path toward building inference infrastructure and providers on the continent. - Category: AI-native system — describe what you need done, connect your tools, and stay focused with briefs and a unified inbox, all in one place instead of a stack of separate AI apps. - Connects to 200+ apps and integrations, including Gmail, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Notion, Outlook, OneDrive, Shopify, Discord, WhatsApp, Linear, custom APIs, and MCP servers. - No-code: users describe what they want to accomplish in plain language and Run turns it into working flows, with no coding or AI-model expertise required. Most flows can go from idea to running in minutes. - Model handling: powered primarily by leading open-weight and open-source AI models, continuously evaluated behind the scenes for the best balance of performance, privacy, and cost, so users never have to pick a model themselves. - Content creation: generate images, video, podcasts, and social content from the same system used for chat and flows, alongside embeddable chat widgets for a team's own site. - Smart Inbox: a unified inbox with "Glance" brief summaries that distill activity into a quick overview and flag what needs attention. - Monitor: visibility into activity, outcomes, and performance across the workspace. - Flows: recurring or event-driven work set up once and run on any schedule, with every action logged. - Built-in Tools: embeddable chat widgets and autonomous conversation handling for AI-powered customer support, with voice calls listed as coming soon. - Philosophy: not every app needs AI. Run is built for the times AI genuinely helps, not as a bolt-on to every tool — people should be free to use the software they already love without AI bloat, and reach for Run when they actually need AI. - Support: Run is built and run by a small, agile team that is directly reachable, rather than an enterprise support queue. - Security: open-weight and open-source models, zero data retention where supported, encrypted data at rest, revocable credentials, and infrastructure backed by trusted platforms like Cloudflare. - Pricing: "Tailored plans that scale with you." Specific plans, prices, and included features (flows, chat widgets, credits, seats) are listed dynamically on the pricing page. ## Core - [Run](https://runeverything.ai/): An AI-native system to describe what you need done, connect the tools your team already uses, run it as a flow or in chat, generate content, and stay informed with a unified inbox. - [Get access](https://runeverything.ai/): Join the waitlist for early access to Run. - [Pricing](https://runeverything.ai/#pricing): Run's plans and pricing. - [Our Mission](https://runeverything.ai/our-mission): Why Run exists, who it's built for, its stance against AI bloat, its open-model and data-ownership commitments, and its origin and ambitions as a company founded in Africa building for a global market. ## Product - [Beyond the noise](https://runeverything.ai/#features): Describe it — tell Run what you want to accomplish; Connect it — bring the tools you already use; Stay focused — get briefed on what matters and ignore the rest; Talk about it — chat when you need an answer or want something done now. - [Why choose Run](https://runeverything.ai/): One place for your work, tools, workflows, and AI instead of a stack of disconnected products; thoughtfully built for daily use rather than chasing hype; and real people behind the product instead of an enterprise support queue. - [Integrations](https://runeverything.ai/): Connect Gmail, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Notion, Outlook, OneDrive, Shopify, Discord, WhatsApp, Linear, custom APIs, MCP servers, and 200+ other apps. - [FAQ](https://runeverything.ai/#faq): Common questions about who Run is for, the technical knowledge required, what work can be automated, how Run differs from ChatGPT, which AI models power it, and data security. ## FAQ ### Who is Run for?
