On-device AI · Android

Your assistant.
AI included.

Aide replaces your default Android assistant and ships with a built-in AI model that runs entirely on your phone — no API key, no account, nothing leaves the device. Want more power? Bring your own key for Claude, ChatGPT, your local Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

Why Aide

Your model. Your keys. Your device.

The opposite of locked-in. Start with the model in the box, or point Aide anywhere — the intelligence lives wherever you want it to.

A model in the box

Aide ships with a small AI model that runs entirely on your phone. Pick "Aide on-device" and you get private chat and web search with no API key, no account, and no data leaving the device — free, forever. Pair it with a cloud provider for the harder questions.

Any model

Aide on-device, Claude, ChatGPT, local Ollama, LM Studio, custom endpoints. Switch at any time.

Default assistant

Swipe from the corner, hold the power button, or voice-invoke — like the one it replaces.

Device actions

Send texts, set alarms, create events, call contacts, open navigation — all voice-driven, all confirmed.

Smart home

Connect to Home Assistant. Ask Aide to dim the lights or arm the alarm.

Keys encrypted on-device

API keys live in Android Keystore with AES-256 hardware-backed encryption. Conversations go straight from your phone to your provider — never through us.

Real-time web, when it matters

Aide augments any model with live web search and URL fetching — even the on-device one. So "what's the weather" works without an API key, "summarize this article" works on GPT, and your local Ollama can suddenly read the internet.

Getting started

Three steps. Takes about a minute.

01

Pick your AI

Use the built-in on-device model — no key needed — or paste a key from Anthropic, OpenAI, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

02

Set as default

Aide walks you through replacing the built-in assistant in Android settings — one tap away.

03

Talk or type

Swipe from the corner, hold power, or open the app. Your new assistant is ready.

Pricing

Free to use. One-time upgrade, no subscription.

The built-in model costs nothing to run. Cloud providers bill you directly through your own key — Aide never marks them up.
