# GAIA

> AMD's open-source AI agent framework for building intelligent agents that run 100% locally on AMD Ryzen AI hardware with hardware-accelerated performance.

GAIA is AMD's open-source framework for building intelligent AI agents that run entirely on-device using AMD Ryzen AI hardware. It eliminates cloud costs and keeps data private, making it suitable for air-gapped, HIPAA-compliant, and GDPR-friendly deployments. The framework supports Python and C++17, and includes a full agent UI, RAG system, voice integration, and MCP connectivity. Install via `pip install amd-gaia` and build your first agent in minutes using the quickstart guide.

- **Agent Framework** — *Base class with tool orchestration, state management, and error recovery for building custom agents.*
- **100% Local Execution** — *All inference runs on-device using AMD Ryzen AI NPU + iGPU; no API fees or usage limits.*
- **Privacy-First Design** — *Data never leaves your machine; suitable for healthcare, finance, and enterprise air-gapped environments.*
- **RAG System** — *Document indexing and semantic search supporting Q&A over 50+ file formats.*
- **Voice Integration** — *Whisper ASR and Kokoro TTS enable full speech interaction with local models.*
- **Vision Models** — *Extract text from images using Qwen3-VL-4B for multimodal workflows.*
- **MCP Integration** — *Connect agents to any MCP server for external tool access and extensibility.*
- **Plugin System** — *Distribute and discover agents via PyPI with auto-discovery support.*
- **C++ Framework** — *A C++17 port of the base agent framework for native applications without Python dependencies.*
- **Agent UI** — *Privacy-first desktop app with chat, file browser, document indexing, and tool execution.*
