It can clear your inbox, send emails, manage calendars, browse the web, fill forms, extract data, run shell commands, and automate tasks. Features persistent memory that remembers your preferences across sessions, a skills and plugins system with 50+ integrations (Spotify, Gmail, GitHub, Obsidian, and more), browser automation, multi-agent routing, voice wake and talk mode, and a visual Live Canvas workspace.
