Big News: Hermes Gets a New Chat UI + Affordable $9.99 Plan with Unlimited Tokens!

We’ve been busy at Agent37 and have some exciting updates to share about Hermes Hosting!

1. Chat UI for Non-Technical Users – HermesWebUI
When we first launched Hermes, it was primarily terminal-based, which worked well for advanced users but wasn’t the most accessible for non-technical folks. We received a ton of feedback asking for an easier way to interact with Hermes.
So, we listened! HermesWebUI is a new chat interface that provides a simple and user-friendly experience, making Hermes easy to use for everyone! No technical skills needed just chat and get things done.
Why it matters: The new chat UI removes the technical barrier and brings Hermes to a wider audience, making it easier to use for both beginners and experienced users.

Built using Python and vanilla JavaScript, HermesWebUI offers a lightweight solution with no frameworks or complex dependencies.
2. Introducing the $9.99 Plan with Unlimited Tokens
Another frequently requested feature is our affordable token plan. We’ve rolled out a $9.99/month plan with unlimited tokens for fast Open Source models, like Qwen 3.5 Flash.
Why it matters: Many of our users wanted to test Hermes and OpenClaw without breaking the bank on expensive tokens. Now, with this new plan, you can explore all the powerful models without worrying about running out of credits!

Why These Updates Matter:
HermesWebUI provides a much-needed solution for users who are finding it difficult to interact with Hermes through a terminal. Now, anyone can use it!
The $9.99 plan is a game-changer for those who need an affordable option to try out powerful models like Qwen 3.5 Flash without spending too much.
What do you think of the new changes? Would love to hear your thoughts and any feedback on the new features!

    This is actually a really strong update. The shift from terminal-based usage to a chat UI will make a big difference for non-technical users. The $9.99 unlimited token plan also feels like a smart entry point for testing and experimentation without worrying about limits.

    Reminds me how some simple tools become popular just because they improve usability and reduce friction for users. Even in other niches, like content browsing and structured listings, platforms such as swigmenux show how clarity in presentation can improve user experience.

    Overall, this looks like a solid step forward for Hermes.

    Do you see this chat interface expanding to cover more advanced features or other AI models down the line? It would be cool to see how you’ll build on this!

    The pricing is great!But I am curious how do the tokens work with OpenClaw?Is it limited by the model you use,or does it stay consistent across all open source models?

    I appreciate how you're making it simpler for everyone to begin using the unlimited token plan. Startups and small developers would undoubtedly benefit from this. Do you think this pricing is long-term plan to draw in more customers?

    The new UI and pricing plan are a huge win! I’m curious, what’s next for Hermes? Any plans to add more customization options or other cool features to the chat UI in the future?

    How do you feel this new chat UI stacks up against what other platforms are doing? Any features you have taken inspiration from or is this all new ground?

  7. 1

    The chat UI looks great, however, I’m wondering how you’ll make sure the more experienced users don’t feel constrained by the new interface. Is it possible to alternate between the old and new modes?

  8. 1

    I love that you are making it easier for non-technical users to get started. Will there be any kind of guide or tutorial available to help current users transition from the terminal interference to the new UI?

  9. 1

    I’m really excited about the unlimited tokens for $9.99. Does the plan include access to all the models available, or are some advanced models still off limits for this price point?

  10. 1

    The new Hermes Web UI is definitely a step in the right direction for user accessibility. But how does it compare in terms of speed and performance to the traditional terminal interface? Does it have the same capabilities?

  11. 1

    The need for improved UX is truly highlighted by this latest version. It is a victory to make Hermes usable by non-technical users without sacrificing any functionality.
