Vision

Pay for the tools, not with your attention.

The Problem

The tools people use every day — news, search, email, chat, markets — are scattered across dozens of platforms, each competing for your time and data. Every platform monetises your attention. Infinite scroll keeps you hooked. Algorithms decide what you see. Ads follow you everywhere.

The internet became addictive. There’s no single place that brings it all together without the noise.

What Mu Is

Mu is the everything app. News, markets, weather, mail, chat, AI — everything in one place. Your home on the internet. Like iGoogle or Netvibes, but modern, self-hostable, and backed by an API that AI agents can use too.

Technology should serve people — not use them. When you pay for tools, incentives are aligned. We build the tools, you use them. That’s it.

Design Choices

At a glance. The home screen shows cards — a summary of each service. Headlines, prices, weather, your mail. Everything visible, details one tap away.

Chronological feeds. No algorithm decides what you see. News is sorted by time. You choose what to read.

Finite content. No infinite scroll. You see what’s there and move on. The goal is to inform, not to keep you scrolling.

No ads, no tracking. Revenue comes from usage credits, not attention. There’s no incentive to maximise screen time.

Single binary. One Go binary, no external dependencies. Self-host or use mu.xyz.
