This tool made quite a buzz online — to the point where Mac Mini sales supposedly spiked. So what is it?
Basically, it’s “hands” for your AI — a way for it to interact with the outside world: chat apps, notes, calendars, and a bunch of other tools. The integrations list is pretty impressive — 50+ and counting.
The main selling point? It can run 24/7 and supposedly doesn’t lose context — meaning it “remembers” everything.
But here’s the catch: it doesn’t ship with its own model. You have to plug in your own — either a local model or an API key for something like GPT or Claude.
I’m a bit skeptical for one simple reason:
If it runs 24/7, you basically have to validate its output 24/7.
That said, it could be really cool for automating repetitive workflows.
For example, imagine a calendar analyzer running all the time, checking your schedule and suggesting:
“Hey, move this meeting — you’re already drained at that time.”
(You’re a zoomer after all 😄)
And of course, the security question doesn’t magically disappear. Giving an always-on agent access to sensitive data is… a big deal.
Have you had any real experience with agents — not just AI chat that edits your files, but something that actually acts on your behalf?
