Episode Details

Set Up Open WebUI with Hermes AI Agent (ChatGPT-Style Interface + Docker)The video shows how to set up Open WebUI with the Hermes AI agent to get a modern, self-hosted chat interface instead of relying on Hermes’ terminal UI or the official Hermes dashboard, which lacks a direct chat option. The presenter has Hermes read the GitHub documentation and configure Open WebUI (including the required Hermes API server and environment file), optionally using Docker, then demonstrates creating an account and chatting with Hermes inside Open WebUI. Key benefits highlighted include easier conversation management, multiple accounts, model switching across local and external models, file uploads, notes/knowledge attachments, saved prompts, tool setup (web search, image generation, code interpreter), previews for built code, and mobile plus voice/video support. The episode ends by directing viewers to the AR Profit Boardroom for full guides, courses, coaching calls, and community resources.00:00 Setup Overview00:32 Docs and GitHub Prep01:32 Why Open WebUI02:23 Install with Docker04:01 First Launch and Login04:38 Chat UI and Models05:22 Files and Knowledge06:00 Profiles and Tools07:10 Preview and Fixes08:06 Wrap Up and Resources
