# AirJelly

> AirJelly is a desktop assistant that watches what is on your screen and offers help in context, with a twist that sets it apart from the crowd: all of its processing and memory stay on your own device rather than in the cloud. That privacy-first stance is the pitch, aimed at people who like the idea of an always-on helper but are wary of streaming their entire workday to someone else's servers. In practice, it captures tasks and context automatically as you move between applications, so it can understand what you are doing without you having to spell it out. Think of it as a quietly attentive layer over your normal work rather than a chatbot you open in a separate window. For non-engineers, the appeal is simple: useful, screen-aware assistance that does not demand you trust a cloud service with everything you look at. It lands in a growing niche of local-first AI tools betting that plenty of people will trade a bit of raw power for keeping their data at home.
