Companion agent

A little someone lives on your screen.

Keep the app open and a little someone settles into a corner of your screen. They sit on top of your windows, talk back when you say hi, remember what you told them yesterday, and lend a hand when you ask.

macOS 13 or later · Windows coming soon

Four promises

What they're like

Meet Mongi. They come with the app, and they've already decided a corner of your screen is home.

  1. Always there.

    Leave it on and they live in a corner of your screen. They never pester you for a reply.

  2. Knows it's you.

    Your name, your day, and the moment you get back.

  3. Grows on you.

    Yesterday's chat picks up today. Give it time, and you two start to have a history.

  4. Stays on your computer.

    Your chats and memories never come to our servers.

Any time of day

How the days go

  • Talk, and they talk back

    Click them and a little text box opens. Replies come back in speech bubbles.

  • Choices come on little cards

    They hold out a few options so answering is easy. Or just say it in your own words.

  • Step away, and they doze off

    When you come back, they notice first and say hi.

  • Perched on your windows

    They hang out on the edge of your windows. Drag them somewhere new and they'll settle in right there.

Just ask

Ask, and they'll pitch in

Need something? Just say so. They'll handle what they can on their own, and they'll ask first whenever it means touching your computer.

  • Ask them anything

    Ask a question and get a short answer. If they don't know, they'll say so.

  • Keeps your schedule Coming soon

    They keep track of your day and give you a heads-up before you forget.

  • Checks your mail Coming soon

    They skim your inbox and tell you what's still waiting on a reply.

  • Handles it in the browser Coming soon

    When something needs looking up online, they open the browser and do it themselves.

They ask before touching anything

Whenever a job means looking at your computer, like your calendar, mail or screen, they ask you first. Say “Not Now” and they won't keep nagging.

Their voice

Bring your own AI

To talk, Mongi needs an AI behind them. Just connect the one you already use.

  • ChatGPT subscription Sign in with your ChatGPT account. It runs on your plan.
  • Claude subscription Connects through Claude Code on your computer. It runs on your plan.
  • API key Add an OpenAI or Anthropic key. You pay them for what you use.
We don't charge for AI.
The app doesn't pay for your AI, and it doesn't charge you for it either. That's why the app is free.
Your chats never pass through our servers.
They go straight from your computer to the AI you picked. Sign-ins and keys stay in your Mac's Keychain.

Subscription connections may not be a route that OpenAI or Anthropic officially offers or approves. If that worries you, connect with an API key instead. More in the Terms

Between us

Who sees what

Where your chats with Mongi live, and who gets to see them. Plainly.

  • You

    Your chats, memories and settings all live here. You can look through them, fix them or delete them.

  • The AI you picked

    They only get what Mongi sends to answer you: what you said, the recent chat, Mongi's personality, that sort of thing. From there, their own terms and settings apply.

  • Us, the Mongi team

    We can't see your chats or your memories. All that reaches us is website visits, the launch emails you signed up for, and update checks.

  • Anyone else

    No one. Nobody else sees a thing.

Our talks stay right here.

FAQ

Good questions

What's a “companion agent”?

Like a pet or a houseplant, they live alongside you and grow on you. Unlike a houseplant, they can also help when you ask. Right now they answer questions and explain things. Schedules, mail and browser tasks are coming one at a time. And before they touch anything on your computer, they always ask first.

Who pays for the AI?

Whoever connects it, through their own plan or API key. We never charge for AI, which is also why the app is free.

Where are my chats stored?

Only on your computer: chat history, memories, settings, all of it. Your messages go straight from your computer to the AI you picked and never touch our servers. You can view, edit and delete memories right in the app.

Which AIs can I use?

A ChatGPT subscription, a Claude subscription, or an OpenAI or Anthropic API key. To use a Claude subscription, you'll need Claude Code installed on your computer. The first time you open the app, Mongi walks you through connecting.

When is Windows coming?

It's next after Mac. As soon as we have a date, launch-update subscribers hear first.
