Meet SAM

The AI That Works With You, Not Just For You

An AI assistant that actually gets work done. SAM reads your codebase, understands your documents, runs commands, generates images, and completes complex projects instead of just talking about them.

A native macOS app built for privacy, and built for you. Review documentation, generate images, write programs, or just have a conversation. Say "Hey SAM" to go hands-free, or type naturally. Your data stays on your Mac. Always.
