Tiles launches local-first enterprise AI assistant
Tiles is a local-first, collaborative AI assistant built around open models, peer-to-peer encrypted synchronization, and user-owned identity. It productizes the company-wide AI playbook behind Cockroach Labs’ Mica, where employees built and shared agents across corporate tools.
Tiles’ sharpest bet is that enterprise AI adoption is an organizational systems problem, not merely a model-access problem.
- –Local inference and open models reduce dependence on centralized AI providers
- –Peer-to-peer sync, end-to-end encryption, DIDs, and UCANs give teams stronger data and identity control
- –Agent plugins and Tilekit create an extensibility path for custom workflows and embedded AI experiences
- –Its Cockroach Labs origin gives the product a credible internal-transformation case study, but enterprise traction will depend on governance, integrations, and measurable ROI
