About Linda

Linda is a private AI coworker designed specifically for Mac users, offering a secure and personalized AI assistant that operates locally on Apple Silicon or via your own API key.

Its standout feature is the ability to set up specialized roles, such as a Researcher or Bookkeeper, each with tailored instructions and skills, enhancing productivity and workflow customization. Linda’s emphasis on privacy, with no account creation and prompts before any potentially sensitive actions, makes it an appealing choice for users concerned about data security. The tool's local AI processing ensures quick, reliable performance without relying on external servers, making it ideal for Mac users seeking a private, efficient AI coworker.
