Why a Local App?
Absolute Assistant runs on your machine, not in a browser. This provides capabilities that web-only tools cannot offer.
Privacy First
Your commands, data, and actions stay on your computer. No cloud logging, no external tracking. You control your own API keys.
Instant Speed
OS-level control means zero latency. Actions execute immediately, without network delays or browser limitations.
Full System Access
Control native apps, access local files, run system commands, and automate anything on your PC—features only possible with a local installation.
What You Get With Local Execution
OS-Level Control
Absolute Assistant needs to launch and control native Windows applications, access system files, and execute commands instantly. Browsers run in a sandboxed environment and cannot provide this level of system integration.
Complete Data Privacy
When automation runs on your machine, your commands and actions never leave your computer. If you use AI features, you can provide your own API keys, ensuring direct communication between your machine and the AI provider—no intermediary services.
Performance Advantages
Local execution means actions happen immediately without network round-trips. OS-level input simulation provides instant response times that web-based tools cannot match due to browser security restrictions and network latency.
System-Wide Automation
Control any application on your PC, access files anywhere on your system, run system commands, and automate workflows that span multiple applications. These capabilities are fundamental to Absolute Assistant's value and are impossible to achieve through a browser.
