Friendware vs RED — The Action AI

Friendware observes how you write across Email, Slack, LinkedIn, iMessage, X and more, then drafts complete replies that match your tone — inserted with a single Tab.

It polishes your sentences and even generates ready-to-use AI prompts as you type, with no highlighting, copying or extra steps required.

Multi-step tasks such as looking up billing in Stripe, drafting a calendar invite or sending a follow-up email are collapsed into one action.

Friendware is built as a native macOS experience that runs everywhere you type rather than living in a separate chat window.

Connect RED directly to local apps, services and APIs through MCP servers, so the assistant can execute real actions instead of just suggesting them.

RED captures and interprets what is on your screen, giving every request visual context so answers and actions match the task in front of you.

Describe an automation in plain language and RED builds the execution graph; run it on demand, on a schedule, or from a trigger.

Parse and understand audio, including metadata, with a monthly transcription allowance on the free tier and more on paid plans.
