Ghost

Ghost builds Core, a $3,499 screenless personal AI computer that runs open-source large language models entirely on-device. Founded in 2025 and based in San Francisco, the startup is led by CEO Zain Javaid and centralizes a person's desktop files, apps and smart-home data on one always-on machine that continuously runs proactive AI agents, keeping all personal data local and encrypted. Core bundles an Nvidia RTX Pro 4000 Blackwell GPU and 64 GB of DDR5 memory into the sticker price, ships with Qwen and Gemma models preinstalled, receives over-the-air model updates and is assembled at the company's own San Francisco facility.
