- AI-Powered: Utilizes AI models like GPT 4.1 mini, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Mistral to generate commands.
- File Conversion: Easily convert files to different formats (e.g., convert to mp4, make a jpg).
- File Organization: Organize files and folders using natural language commands (e.g., put in screenshots folder, zip em up!).
- System Utilities: Access system functionalities like toggling dark mode or keeping the Mac awake.
- Metadata Extraction: Extract file metadata, such as file type, creation date, and source.
- Code and Version Control: Execute code-related tasks and version control commands (e.g., total lines of JavaScript, switch to dev branch).
- Weather Information: Get weather updates using natural language (e.g., What's the weather in Tokyo?).
- Privacy Options: Supports local AI models via tools like Ollama or LM Studio for privacy-conscious workflows.
Use Cases:
- Developers: Automate coding tasks, manage version control, and extract code metrics.
- Designers: Quickly convert and resize images, manage design assets.
- General Users: Simplify file management, perform calculations, and access system utilities with ease.
