🤖 We added MCP tools to Reachy Mini!

The Reachy Mini conversation app can now use tools hosted on Hugging Face Spaces. Add web search or weather without touching the app's code, publish your own tool and share with the community!

Reachy Mini prices are increasing on Monday! If you want to get one, order it now to get 100$ off!

[Ivan Fioravanti ᯅ @ivanfioravanti]

Local Reachy Mini conversations wireless looks like magic! You can bring your friend around the house and get WOW effect from anyone! 🔥

Thanks @andimarafioti for the blog post on how to set this up: https://t.co/wUL5lyVBPY

Open-source Realtime API powered by llama.cpp: Parakeet -> Gemma 4 E4B -> Qwen3TTS. Just perfect on M5!

Pictures, audio and content remain local and private!

Next step adding some tools to search on the web or even better interfacing with my Hermes Agent! 🔥

[Amir Mahla @amir_mahla]

Your @reachymini just stopped needing the cloud.

With @pollenrobotics and @huggingface, we shipped a guide to run the whole speech-to-speech stack on your laptop, audio never leaves the room.

Introducing local Reachy Mini conversations: free chats forever!
So fast that we had to hardcode delays to stop it from interrupting you mid-sentence.

We built an open-source Realtime API powered by llama.cpp:
Parakeet -> Gemma 4 E4B -> Qwen3TTS

Run it anywhere you run local LMs. Video shows DGX Spark and a 36GB M3 Pro MacBook.

[domotick @domotick_]

met @darkseed on Tuesday at @gosimfoundation Paris (Station F)
asked him if I could bring my Reachy Mini over — the one with the eyes I'd modded.
he said yes. and then… 🤖👇

[reachymini @reachymini]

@jrubiosainz @pollenrobotics @huggingface this is super cool! Would you want to take a stab at fixing our head-tracking in the conversation app? https://t.co/QJ8v35mtPC

[Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli]

I 3D printed my Reachy mini a custom outfit, then built a live object detection app and deployed it on her camera

Turns out she's not a robot with AI added. She's an LLM with a body. different thing

favorite AGI/sci-fi vibe these days is coding a robot code together with the robot

here vibe-pluging @ElevenLabs in @reachymini for a talk later today

[reachymini @reachymini]

@rednbluearmy_ @pollenrobotics The windows version is working great now!

"The coolest social robot in the world"

As HRI 2026 in Edinburgh showed us, Reachy Mini already holds a special place in your hearts. Step by step, it is becoming the ideal companion for your projects, and your interactions with our robot encourage us to make it even better!

🎭🤖 Reachy Mini went on stage with the English Lovers improv team at TED AI Vienna last September – and the video is finally out!

Everything is completely unscripted – Reachy picks its own emotions and reactions in real time, guided only by the prompt in our open-source conversation app. It nailed all the improv scenarios, a true actor

Thanks to @TEDAIVienna and the English Lovers for the incredible experience, to @Caro_Nahkriin and Fabien Danieau for making this stage appearance possible, and to the whole @pollenrobotics and @huggingface teams for their work 🙌🔥

Real-time video captioning in your browser with @LiquidAI's LFM2-VL model on WebGPU.

Sending every frame to a server was never going to be the answer. Imagine the bandwidth, latency and cost.

Local inference. No server costs. Infinitely scalable.

This is the way.

🎟️ The Golden Ticket has been claimed.

When we launched the Reachy Mini community app contest with @nvidia and @pollenrobotics, we didn't know what to expect. 75 apps later — we're blown away.

And the winner of the popular vote?

🏆 Reachy Phone Home by Marco Domingo
👉 https://t.co/Djah212IFT

Marco built something genuinely clever: a computer vision app that catches you reaching for your phone — and lets Reachy Mini call you out for it. Simple premise. Brilliant execution. 300+ likes agree.

Marco, your DGX Spark is on its way — and so is your VIP seat for Jensen's keynote 🤩 Enjoy every second of it. #NVIDIAGTC

[Amir Mahla @amir_mahla]

Reachy Mini can now control my computer… by voice.

I’ve POC a Computer Use Agent directly embedded into Reachy Mini (local computer automation + speech control), built on top of the conversational app.

Simple idea → Put Computer Use in Reachy Mini, and let the robot’s voice-first, multimodal agent interface make it accessible to anyone.

I’m super excited about this new paradigm and would love feedback on whether we should open it to the community.

Would you want a computer-use Reachy Mini agent?

[Remi Fabre @RemiFabreRobot]

Had an idea.
20 minutes later my robot was trash-talking my chess moves 🤯
Claude Code wrote everything.

Today we’re releasing https://t.co/tXyU8NRa5d to help AI agents build Reachy Mini apps!

Built a @openclawd client for Reachy Mini 🤖

Gateway connection ✅
Charming antenna + claw animations ✅
Wife-drawn lobster art at 1 AM ✅ (explaining why I need 🦞 and I need it NOW wasn’t easy 😅)

@huggingface @pollenrobotics

For #NVIDIAGTC, please meet Sparky, a Reachy Mini Lite that lives in my house. He recognizes family members (with voice rec), has evolving interests (this week: eels), reviews my code in Emacs, checks my calendar, and initiates conversation on its own.

On-device STT (NVIDIA Parakeet), local TTS (thanks to RTX 3090), acoustic echo cancellation, custom wake word, interruptible, no browser. Orchestrated by @openclaw!
