Linda
Freemium
A private AI coworker for Apple silicon Macs that handles browser, file, and app tasks with approval controls.
Lindaとは？
Linda is a native AI coworker for Apple silicon Macs. It accepts typed or spoken requests and carries out multi-step work in its own browser, task folders, projects, and supported apps. Typical jobs include gathering invoices, comparing prices, organizing scanned files, and creating documents or spreadsheets.
The app can use a locally run assistant through MLX, connect to Ollama, LM Studio, or mlx-lm on the same Mac, or use an online model with a key supplied by the user. Local mode keeps the task, files, memory, passwords, and voice transcription on the Mac. Linda also provides approval gates for consequential actions, so sending, buying, deleting, posting, or submitting personal data requires confirmation.
Lindaでできること
Browser-based task execution
Linda works in a browser profile of its own, where it can sign in, click, read, and download without taking over the user’s mouse. A live Computer view lets users watch, stop, or take over.
Scoped files and projects
Each task has its own folder, while related tasks can share a project folder. Within the permitted location, Linda can read, rename, merge, and create PDFs, spreadsheets, and documents.
Approval gates and credential handling
The app pauses before sending, buying, deleting, posting, or submitting personal data. Passwords remain in Keychain and are entered through secure browser fields rather than placed in chat.
Specialists, routines, and memory
Users can configure named specialists with instructions, skills, projects, and tool switches, turn completed tasks into daily, weekly, or monthly routines, and manage saved personal memory in Settings.
Voice, search, and app connections
On-device speech input supports a press-and-hold workflow. Linda can search the web and connect with listed Mac apps and services, including Outlook, Teams, Numbers, Pages, Notes, Calendar, Reminders, Notion, Todoist, Linear, GitHub, and Stripe.
利用シーン
“Organize household or business paperwork”
Ask Linda to download bills or invoices, rename scans by date or supplier, combine files, and place the results in a designated project folder.
“Research products and monitor prices”
Have Linda compare prices across shops, collect links, or check a page on a schedule and notify you if a specified price changes.
“Prepare structured files from receipts”
Use a task folder containing receipts to create an expense sheet with totals, then keep the output available to later tasks in the same project.
“Repeat operational work”
After completing a task, convert it into a daily, weekly, or monthly routine for recurring checks and file-processing workflows.
“Delegate app and browser tasks with review”
Configure a specialist for a repeated role such as research or bookkeeping, let it work in the background, and review sensitive actions in the chat before approval.
よくある質問
What Mac does Linda require?
The documented requirements are an Apple silicon Mac, from M1 to M5, running macOS 26. Microphone permission is needed for voice input, and Accessibility permission supports the talk key and browser operation while other apps are in use.
Can Linda run without sending task data to an online AI provider?
Yes. Linda can download and run a local assistant through its MLX engine. In that mode, the task, pages Linda reads, files, memory, passwords, and voice transcription stay on the Mac. Local mode requires no account, model key, or provider bill.
Can I use a model I already run locally?
Yes. Linda supports local Ollama, LM Studio, and mlx-lm services through OpenAI-compatible APIs. The documented local connection accepts localhost or another loopback address, not a remote server.
What happens before Linda takes a sensitive action?
Linda stops and displays the proposed action in the chat before sending, buying, deleting, posting, or submitting personal data. You can approve or decline it, and the site states that these approval gates cannot be bypassed by settings, specialists, pages, or instructions.
Does Linda support online models?
Yes. You can add your own key from providers including OpenRouter, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Mistral, or DeepSeek, or use another OpenAI-compatible HTTPS server. Provider charges and usage are handled by the selected provider.
