What Rool is
Rool is a private AI cloud machine designed for individuals and teams, hosted in the EU with a focus on privacy and data sovereignty. Behind a chat interface you get files, a software runtime, persistent object memory, and self-hosted AI models, so tasks, tools, and context carry over instead of restarting from zero each time. The team states there is no data selling, no ads, and that files and conversations are not used to train AI, and by default only you and invited guests can reach the machine. The Standard plan is free forever with 240 AI credits per day, two machines, and 1GB of storage per machine, while Plus and Pro add more credits, storage, machines, and priority support.
What you can do with it
- Keep files and documents in one private machine for AI to read and write
- Carry context and memory across tasks so you do not repeat yourself
- Run software and scripts alongside chat in the same environment
- Connect outside services through built-in connectors and custom MCP servers
- Invite guests and control who can reach the workspace
Who it is for
- Privacy-conscious individuals who want files and AI in one private place
- European teams and compliance staff who need data to stay in the EU
- Developers who run software and wire external services to AI tasks
- Knowledge workers and researchers who keep long-running context
What to watch out for
The free-forever plan is capped at 240 AI credits per day and 1GB of storage per machine, so heavy users will need a paid Plus or Pro plan, and those prices or the free terms could change over time. Because the machine sits in the EU, users far from Europe may see slower responses, which matters for real-time work. Getting real value from the software runtime and MCP servers takes some technical setup, so it is not a plug-and-play chat tool for everyone. The privacy promises rest on the operator's current policy, so read the terms before you store sensitive material.
