Private AI that answers from your own documents, on Mac and Windows
Files, folders, PDFs, Word documents, spreadsheets, slides and scans are read and indexed on your own computer rather than uploaded to a third-party service.
Every response cites the underlying file plus the page, slide or sheet it came from, so you can open and verify the passage yourself.
Names, email addresses and phone numbers are hidden before a question leaves your device, and you can view exactly what was masked under each answer.
Use the default Elephas gateway, plug in your own OpenAI, Claude or Gemini API key, or download a local model so answers are generated on your computer with nothing sent.
AI sidebar and browser agent for reading, writing and research
A persistent panel that reads the page you are on and answers follow-ups with GPT, Claude or Gemini without copying content into another tab.
Summarise long articles, PDFs and YouTube videos, extract key points, and ask detailed questions about the source material.
Translate webpages, PDFs and images, compare bilingual output side by side, and have content read aloud for review on the move.
Delegate multi-step tasks across real websites — price comparison, form filling, research and inbox triage — using your existing logged-in sessions.
