New self-hosted AI platform manages email, scheduling, content, and software development while entrepreneurs sleep — bringing the always-on AI capabilities of open-source tools like OpenClaw to anyone, with built-in security and minimal setup

KELOWNA, BC, March 29, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- APEX (apex.host) today launched an autonomous AI platform that works as an always-on team member for entrepreneurs. Most AI tools wait for a prompt. APEX doesn't. It manages email, schedules meetings, creates content, runs research, and builds software on its own — 24/7, on the founder's own private servers.

Why Now: From DIY Agents to a Managed Platform

The demand for autonomous AI is already proven. OpenClaw, the open-source personal AI agent, racked up over 300,000 GitHub stars in its first months — showing that founders don't want another chatbot, they want AI that takes action on its own. But going the open-source route means complex setup, known security vulnerabilities, and no easy way to coordinate multiple agents across different parts of a business. APEX delivers the same always-on power as a managed platform — minimal configuration, security guardrails built in, and an orchestration layer that lets founders run a full team of AI agents from one dashboard.

"You don't add AI to your business. You rebuild the business with AI as the foundation. That's what APEX makes possible — not a tool you bolt on, but an operating layer that changes how a company runs from day one."

— Dan Martell, Founder, APEX

How APEX Works

APEX plugs into the tools founders already live in — Slack, email, WhatsApp — and starts working from day one. No technical setup. It sorts your inbox, flags what actually needs your attention, preps you before meetings, and turns voice notes into finished content and social posts. Hand off a software task before bed, wake up to a working prototype.

"APEX is the experience I've been waiting for as a founder since my first time using AI. It's the smartest employee you've ever had — one that never gets tired, has perfect memory, and has a PhD in every subject."

— Marcel Petitpas, Managing Partner, Martell Ventures

APEX also gets smarter over time. It remembers every conversation, every decision, and every priority across sessions — so founders never have to re-explain context. The more you use it, the more it understands your business and the less you have to manage it.

"The next org chart won't be all humans. It'll be humans and agents, working together, each doing what they're best at. APEX is the orchestration layer that makes that possible: a platform where agents are first-class workers, not afterthoughts bolted onto existing software."

— Etienne de Bruin, CTO, APEX

"Within 30 minutes of using APEX, it was handling work that used to take me hours and following up on commitments I'd forgotten about. A founder's biggest constraint isn't capital or ideas — it's hours in the day. APEX changes the math on what a single founder can build."

— Roddy Awad, Managing Partner, Martell Ventures

Availability

APEX is now accepting founders to its waitlist at apex.host, with early access granted on a rolling basis. Referrals from existing waitlist members receive priority placement.
