What's actually free?
Everything that runs offline: Live Transcribe with on-device translation, the intelligent Teleprompter, the workflow recorder (review pages, PDFs and agent files), saved guides with voice walkthroughs, dictation, and the full 3D avatar cast with Rig Studio. No account, no AI key, no trial clock. Paid plans add hosted voice, the cloud Agent Computer on Pro, and a small Live Avatar beta allowance.
What do I need to run it?
On Mac, a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or newer) on macOS 14 or later; Intel Macs are not supported yet. The Mac download is signed and notarized. On Windows, a 64-bit Windows 11 PC. The current Windows beta is unsigned, so SmartScreen will warn about an unknown publisher; verify the published SHA-256 before running it. On Linux, the developer preview ships as an AppImage for ARM64 (aarch64) machines and VMs, with a PKGBUILD for Arch and Omarchy; the x86_64 build follows. It targets Wayland desktops such as Hyprland and Omarchy first, with sway and X11 supported and GNOME and KDE through desktop portals.
What powers the voice?
Google's live speech models understand you and speak the replies. Paid voice plans include 120 active hosted minutes per billing month, shared across your devices. Optional one-time packs add 120 minutes for $10 or 300 for $22, without expiry or automatic refill. Your already-paid period stays as promised until renewal. Voice is processed through Co-Agent to Google without saving recordings, after you allow it in the app. Heavy tasks run on your own agent: Hermes, Claude Code, or Codex.
Can it click things on my computer?
Only with your approval. Any real input on your machine raises an Allow or Deny card stating exactly what it wants to do, and every executed action is recorded in a local receipt you can audit.
What exactly is the Agent Computer?
A private Linux cloud desktop that exists when you need it. Your agent can browse, download files, install apps and run long jobs there instead of on your machine. It boots in seconds from a warm pool, sleeps when you're not using it, and its files are disposable by design.
Is there a live video avatar?
In beta. Live Avatar is a realistic video person who talks with you. While it is in beta, Plus includes 1 minute a month and Pro 2 minutes a month of Live Avatar speaking time. It is a beta allowance, not a guaranteed feature: minutes count only while the avatar speaks, reset each month and do not roll over. When it is busy or your minutes run out, your 3D avatar keeps talking with you. The 3D avatar cast is free.
Can I cancel?
Yes. All plans are monthly and you can cancel any time from your account. There is no refund for the month you are in, and everything that runs offline stays free.
Is my data used for training?
We don't train anything on your data, and voice turns go through Google's paid API. We keep operational metering (token counts), not your content.
