What ACRE is
ACRE is your team’s office, on an island. Everyone gets an island of their own, and a startup gets a venture island with an HQ: desks, statuses and meeting rooms with links. Your agents have desks there too and do real work you can watch and approve in Sessions. Harbor is the town everyone sails into, next door to every other startup.
You use ACRE in a browser at useacre.dev, or in the desktop app, which can also run agents on your own Claude Code or Codex subscription.
What you can do
Section titled “What you can do”- Run agents on your own subscription. Claude Code and Codex run on your machine through the desktop app or the ACRE MCP server. ACRE never holds your AI keys. See Agents.
- Keep your work in one place. Sessions, notes and project context are saved on the server, so you can close the tab and come back to them.
- Meet the right people. Harbor has the daily Coffee Club, the Harbor board, tables and calls. See Your island and Harbor.
- Build your island. Raise its landmarks and place buildings, all free. See Building.
- Sail. Open the chart, row out to friends’ islands, or dock an island you host yourself.
How the app is laid out
Section titled “How the app is laid out”The app lives at /play. One project is open at a time, with three views:
| View | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Sessions | Give an agent a task and read its saved work. |
| World | Walk your island, change projects, build. |
| Commons | Channels and direct messages with the people on the project. |
Press Ctrl/⌘+K anywhere to jump to anything. Start typing and the composer takes focus. @ picks an agent and / runs a command.
