macOS alpha ยท Windows beta

A local-first assistant that lives where your work happens.

CALCIE brings voice, screen vision, app control, media playback, live search, and safe agentic workflows into a native desktop companion.

Alpha builds are for testers. CALCIE stays local-first and asks before risky actions.

Starter commands for testers

Use these as known-good prompts when you first open CALCIE. After that, start experimenting in your own words.

macOS: hold Right Option to talk Windows: try F8, Right Ctrl, Right Alt, or Ctrl+Shift+Space

Windows beta does not need the macOS Terminal command. Just extract the ZIP and run Launch CALCIE.bat.

For full AI/chat features, testers should add a free Gemini API key in the top-level .env next to Launch CALCIE.bat. The setup page now shows the exact steps.

CALCIE Player

One reusable app-owned YouTube / YouTube Music surface, avoiding browser tab chaos while supporting media controls.
