What it does
Brings AI chat, voice dictation, meeting notes and a local agent together in a single app, processing locally where it can and routing the rest through privacy-preserving infrastructure - with the source open so those claims can be checked. macOS 14 or later (Apple Silicon and Intel) is the primary target. Windows builds exist but cover only the app shell, sign-in, microphone recording, notes and the bundled agent - not global dictation paste or system audio capture. AI calls are metered. MIT licensed.
