Pros & Cons
Pros
- check Fully local — all data stays on your machine, which satisfies compliance requirements common in finance
- check 55+ pre-built skills covering research, productivity, developer tools, and smart home, with a community marketplace for more
- check Free and open-source (MIT), with support for 10+ AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and OpenRouter
Cons
- close Requires a dedicated machine to stay on 24/7 to get the "always-on" benefit — not a managed cloud service
- close Windows/Mac/Linux GUI is simpler but power users still need to configure AI API keys and channel integrations
- close No free hosted tier; you're responsible for your own compute and API costs
