Check release availability

The public beta is in preparation. When it is ready, use the official release destination and the installation instructions for that exact version.

The release page will carry the installer, checksum, publisher and signing information, tested Windows configuration, known limitations, and update instructions. There is no public installer linked from this website yet.

Explore the source preview

The public repository includes the application source and development instructions. Follow its setup guide for current prerequisites. This is an early source preview; a public installer is not available yet.

Optional Live2D assets are omitted, so the overlay uses its placeholder fallback. Model weights and native inference binaries are supplied separately. Google subscription OAuth requires an authorized client configuration, which this preview does not bundle.

Choose a model connection

  • Local modelA supported model file and runtime on suitable hardware. Model weights are separate from the installer.
  • Provider API or custom endpointYour own account and credentials for a supported route. The provider's charges and limits apply.
  • Supported provider accountAn account connection with the entitlement that provider requires. Signing in does not itself grant free inference.

See Models & connections for the practical differences. Choose the model for the chat after establishing a working connection.

Start with a few samples

Use copies of sample files or the inline example in Your first task. Say what result you want, which resources may be used, and where new output should be saved.

For a file task, keep the originals separate from the requested output. A fresh folder with only the relevant samples makes the scope easier to understand.

Try a task and a follow-up

  1. Ask for a small result with an obvious way to check it.
  2. Inspect the calculation, file, or other output.
  3. Ask a follow-up that uses the same working data.
  4. If the runtime changed, establish what is available before relying on earlier state.

Check the output itself: open the file or examine the values.

Set up extra tools when needed

Browser work may require first-use browser setup. Optional local speech engines and their model assets have separate prerequisites. A provider-funded free model can be useful for trying the app when available, but its provider controls eligibility, capacity, and quotas.

Check the final setup guide for the release you install before assuming those resources are already bundled.
