The current Windows desktop download is free. V2 is planned at $8.99 one-time; no checkout or purchase is available on this page.

No. The recommended V1 setup is local Ollama: install and open Ollama, install a model, then select Detect local models. One detected model is selected automatically; if several are installed, choose one. Hermes is optional for delegated tasks.
The desktop app and its Brain data are local-first. A task is sent through the route you select. With direct Ollama, inference calls your local Ollama service. With Hermes delegation, your adapter/provider may process the task; share browser or Knowledge context only when you opt in.
The Chrome/Edge companion supports user-triggered, bounded site scanning. Review the captured text first; page text is not sent to a model until you explicitly include it. The browser side panel is optional to the desktop download.
Release 0.6.0’s Windows installer is unsigned. SmartScreen may warn when you run it. Download only from the official GitHub release and compare the SHA-256 shown on this page if you choose to verify it; v0.6.0 does not attach a separate checksum file.
No. $8.99 is the planned one-time V2 price, not a current offer. The Windows 0.6.0 download is free, and this page has no checkout. Mobile directions are planned only: Android floating-head support; iOS Dynamic Island / Live Activities and wallpaper experiences.
