mu

Your personal dashboard — news, markets, weather, AI, mail, and more. No ads. No tracking. No algorithm.

Overview

Mu is a self-hosted dashboard that brings together the things you check every day — news, markets, weather, mail, chat — in one place, without ads, algorithms, or tracking.

Pay for the tools, not with your attention.

What's on the dashboard

• News — Headlines from RSS feeds, chronological, with AI summaries
• Markets — Live crypto, futures, and commodity prices
• Weather — Forecasts and conditions
• Mail — Private messaging and email
• Blog — Microblogging with daily AI-generated digests
• Chat — AI-powered conversation on any topic
• Video — YouTube without ads, algorithms, or shorts
• Web — Search the web without tracking
• Agent — AI assistant that can search, answer, and build across every service
• Apps — Build and use small, useful tools

Runs as a single Go binary. Self-host or use mu.xyz.

How it works

The home screen shows cards — a summary of each service. Each card links to a full page. News card shows headlines, links to /news. Markets card shows prices, links to /markets. Everything at a glance, details one tap away.

For developers

Mu exposes a REST API and MCP server at /mcp so AI agents and tools can connect directly.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mu": {
      "url": "https://mu.xyz/mcp"
    }
  }
}

30+ tools — news, search, weather, places, video, email, markets — accessible via MCP. AI agents can pay per-request with USDC through the x402 protocol. No API keys. No accounts. Just call and pay.

See API docs · MCP docs

• Card — Top up via Stripe. 1 credit = 1p.
• Crypto — AI agents pay per-request with USDC via x402. No account needed.
