A Stateless Linux Operating System. Built to Go Anywhere.

AvalancheOS is a portable, stateless Linux operating system designed to give you a complete desktop environment that runs directly from USB. Your session starts fresh, works independently, and returns to a clean state when you shut down.

Portable by Design

Run AvalancheOS directly from USB without installing it to the computer you're using.

Stateless Sessions

Start fresh each time. Your session doesn't become permanently tied to the computer.

Private by Default

Use your own temporary working environment with an AvalancheOS session password.

How AvalancheOS Works

A portable Linux experience designed to start fresh.

1. Boot from USB

Start AvalancheOS directly from a USB drive without installing it on the computer you're using.

2. Start Your Session

Start your AvalancheOS session and enter your session password.

3. Use AvalancheOS

Use the desktop, applications, and tools included with AvalancheOS wherever you need them.

4. Shut Down

End your session and shut down. The next time you boot, AvalancheOS starts fresh again.
