Products & Services
Free, private local AI assistant for web and Android. Models run on the user's device; it supports chat, writing, local files and photos, projects, citations, voice, journal, reminders, Heat (word-probability alternatives), Pocket Wikipedia and Android context such as notifications and calendar with permission.
Don's own phone-oriented language model behind CuriousLM. The official pages describe it as a 2B-parameter model of about 1.1 GB that runs locally and is trained for phone-assistant tasks.
Free Igbo-learning app with roughly ten-minute guided lessons, real Igbo-native voices, games, folktales, speaking practice, conversations, dictionary and offline phrasebook features.
AI studio for talking videos: voice-following teleprompter, recording, auto-cut, captions, voice start/stop, rehearsal coaching, floating call/stream prompter, Shorts and batch recording.
Market Position
Don's work is positioned as a privacy-first, independent alternative to cloud-dependent AI and conventional SaaS: CuriousLM keeps inference and data on the device, Faye keeps health data offline, and Asụsụ Ọma is free rather than subscription-gated. Teda explicitly contrasts its lightweight browser app generation with heavier builders such as Lovable; CopyMe competes in AI teleprompter/video creation, while his education products compete through practical books, courses and community rather than enterprise software. The trade-off he acknowledges for local AI is smaller/slower models than large cloud systems.
Leadership
Founders
Ebenezer Don
Software engineer, author and educator with more than a decade (13+ years on his JavaScript education site) building web and mobile applications, data analytics and machine-learning solutions. He has taught software engineering online since 2018, written four books, contributed to open source, and says his products have been used by millions of people.
Founding Story
Don says he started writing code to see what would happen and continued building products from problems close to home. His portfolio describes CuriousLM as the private AI he wanted for himself, Asụsụ Ọma as an Igbo-learning app built so his daughter could greet her grandmother properly, Faye as a privacy-first health app, and Teda as a way for non-coders to make small tools they wish existed.
