Your open source agent, your data — private and sovereign by design. 🦞
A workshop series on taking back control of your digital life — before someone else designs it for you.

See the workshop materials →AI assistants are already woven into the fabric of everyday life — in the apps you use, the search results you see, the recommendations that shape what you buy and read and believe. Most of it is invisible, and none of it is yours.
What this workshop gives you is different: an open source AI agent that you run, you control, and you understand. It lives on your hardware. It works for you — not for a platform, not for an advertiser, not for a company with an incentive to harvest your data.
You don't need to be a developer. You don't need a computer science degree. You need a little curiosity and a few hours. Your agent handles the rest — including explaining itself to you as you go.
The future is agents. This is how you show up to it on your own terms.
Linux is the foundation of a sovereign setup — open source, auditable, and yours. If you don't have one yet, Pop!_OS by System76 is an excellent starting point for newcomers.
If you use a Mac and won't budge on it, that's okay — but be aware: Apple does not publish its source code, which means there's no way to verify what's actually running inside your machine. Apple has a documented history of building surveillance capabilities into their hardware and software. Scott also doesn't use Macs, so he won't be able to help you troubleshoot one at the workshop.
NanoClaw runs on Claude, Anthropic's AI. You'll need a subscription to power your agent — plans start around $20/month. You don't need this before the workshop, but you'll set it up when you activate NanoClaw. Don't worry: once your agent is running, it can walk you through the rest.
The Pixel line is the only Android hardware fully supported by GrapheneOS, the gold standard for private mobile operating systems. Your phone doesn't need to be running GrapheneOS yet — we'll cover that path together. It does need to be carrier-unlocked (not locked to AT&T, Verizon, etc.).
GitHub is where your agent's code lives. You don't need to understand it — your agent will. Once you're set up, just ask and it'll explain everything at your own pace.
Workshops run for one hour. Here's the structure:
Everyone together. We cover what sovereign AI is, why it matters, and what you're about to set up. No experience required — just show up.
This is where things get personal. Scott works with each person based on what they brought and where they are. Whether you're starting from zero or almost there, you'll leave with real progress.
We come back together to celebrate wins, answer questions, and map out next steps. You'll leave knowing exactly what to do next.
Scott Jorgensen is a credentialed science educator who has spent years learning digital privacy and sovereignty from people more skilled than himself. He's curious, persistent, and — with AI agents now in the picture — has more tools to pursue this than ever before.
Professionally, Scott has done significant curriculum work: he led NGSS adoption for Stockton Unified School District and helped establish his school as a California Distinguished School. He's integrated with the San Joaquin County Office of Education, maintains district-level contacts across multiple counties for NGSS implementation, and has a track record of getting real results with students and teachers.
He runs these workshops because he knows how to teach — and because most people who care about privacy don't have a trusted person to walk them through it in plain language. That's what he's trying to be.
If you're ready to move now, private consultation sessions are available. Scott and Jorgenclaw work with you one-on-one — at your pace, on your hardware, on your timeline.
