Alice (formerly Alice Automation)
Alice is a native desktop assistant that sits inside your operating system and responds to a hotkey. Instead of opening a browser tab every time you need help, you summon it from whatever app you are in, chat with leading models, and trigger real actions in the tools you already use.
The product centers on reusable assistants and skills. You can build your own or install from a library of 50+ prebuilt assistants spanning sales, coding, content, and research. Each assistant can run saved prompts, connect to MCP servers, and hook into Zapier, Make, or n8n so a single command can update a CRM, draft an email, or file a follow-up task.
Alice supports models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and Groq in one interface. Bring your own API keys on the lifetime plan, or use included tokens on subscription plans. Conversations, documents, and preferences stay local on your machine, with offline model support for users who want maximum privacy.
It is built for founders, creators, and knowledge workers who live in keyboard shortcuts and want AI that does work, not just answers questions. The app runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
