An assistant that actually does things
Most AI lives in a chat box. NOVA lives on your desktop and gets its hands on your work.
- Controls your computer. Clicks, types, reads your screen, and drives Chrome. It acts on your machine, it does not just talk about it.
- Voice-first. Sub-two-second local speech-to-text plus a natural voice back. You talk, it answers out loud, no typing required.
- Bring your own keys. Your Anthropic and ElevenLabs keys, your accounts, your spend. No middleman markup and no per-seat tax.
- Local and private. Runs on your machine. Nothing leaves except the API calls you authorize. Your files and your screen stay yours.
Desktop-native voice, not a browser tab
NOVA uses local NVIDIA Parakeet speech-to-text plus an ElevenLabs voice for sub-two-second turns. You talk, it answers, fast enough to feel like a conversation. The difference: it can act on what it hears. Open apps, click, type, read your screen. Cloud voice modes can talk, but they cannot touch your machine.
Running in five minutes
- Install NOVA. Download the desktop app and run the installer. One binary, no cloud account to create.
- Paste your keys. Drop your Anthropic and ElevenLabs keys into Settings. They stay encrypted on your machine.
- Unmute and talk. Say what you need and it goes to work. Your voice is transcribed on your own device, so no server ever hears you.
How NOVA compares to ChatGPT and Grok
Cloud chat tools are great at talking. NOVA is built to act, on your machine, on your terms: it runs natively on your desktop, controls your apps, keeps your data local, lets you choose your own model, and costs $999 one time instead of a monthly subscription.
