Draft, research, and save without opening a project.

02
Every task. One workspace.
Start with a chat, choose a model, open a project, hand work to a bot, or continue from your phone.
01
Think it through.
Write, research with sources, and keep imported chat history in one library.
02
Your model. Your choice.
Run MLX or GGUF locally, bring your own key, or sign in through Codex.
03
Build real software.
Open a project when needed. Split and move tool tabs, review changes, and keep your draft and composer in view.
04
Four specialists.
Researcher, Builder, Reviewer, and Navigator work inside your conversation, with inline progress, approvals, and results.
05
Work away from the desk.
Pair iPhone, iPad, or a trusted browser. The Mac stays in charge.
01
Bring your history.
Import Claude, Codex, and Cursor chats. Search, pin, and export from one library.
02
Connect ChatGPT.
Account models appear beside local and API models when a local Codex setup is available.
03
From a build to a device.
Archive, export an IPA, or install on a connected device with signing tools you configure.
04
Share the local model.
Serve the loaded model to OpenAI-compatible clients on loopback.
Local inference runs on your Mac. Choosing a remote provider, web search, or a connected service sends the relevant requests to that service; availability and costs depend on your provider.
Bots keep private browser profiles. Follow, queue, or steer a run from the Bot Console.
03Security
Power with a visible boundary.
The Mac owns execution. Remote clients can request work, but workspace confinement, Keychain storage, approvals, and revocation remain local.
Owner-controlled
A remote screen is not remote permission.
Sensitive tools, clipboard, files, Mac control, and workspace mutations stay behind the Mac app’s explicit policy and permission checks.
Private pairingUse a trusted LAN or Tailscale network and revoke saved devices at any time.
Keychain secretsProvider keys, session encryption keys, and remote tokens stay in platform storage.
Workspace confinementCode tools operate only inside the project the user selected.
Approval-gated actionsWrites and commands ask by default. Approval cards show the action; configured permission rules control what can run automatically.
Want your assistant interface on iPhone or iPad? Pair the same iOS app with Vamp Companion: a compact Mac host for local models, API providers, devices, and settings. Your original Assistant installation stays separate.
