Work with documents and data, find apps for your tasks and build your own plugins by describing what you need. Alisio brings artificial intelligence to your daily work, from a desktop app.
Alisio is a desktop app with artificial intelligence that helps you with tasks from your work, your studies and your daily life. Describe what you need: Alisio organizes the steps, uses the tools available and helps you reach a result you can review and use. It works with the files in the folder you choose, asks before it changes anything and lets you add apps for your work, from the catalog or built by you. Teachers, students, office staff, accountants and anyone at home can start without learning new technical terms; programming is still possible, as an advanced use.
Conversation, files and approvals in one window
Ask in your own words, see what Alisio is doing and approve each change. The desktop app shows this interface in its own window; it also opens in your browser.
Bring your spreadsheet. Attach an Excel file and ask for what you need; the table opens beside the chat so you can filter it while Alisio works through the steps.
Ask questions about your data. Ask in your own words and get clear tables and rankings, with your project's files listed on the right.
From data to a dashboard. Alisio summarizes what it found in a national archives census and opens the dashboard with charts beside the chat.
A report ready to share. An executive sales report is created as a PDF and previewed next to the conversation.
Write with Scribe. The Scribe app drafts a scientific article section by section, with a diagram and a PDF preview you can export.
Plan your thesis. Thesis Studio guides you from a short interview to the final PDF, one step at a time.
Build a website by talking. The Lumbre app builds a bakery website from a conversation and shows a preview beside it.
See what Alisio did. The Trajectory tab shows the timeline of each step, how much text the model read and wrote per turn and the time each tool took.

Explore the plugin catalog and install what you need in one click: thesis writing, literature research, printable math exams, certificates and cards. Installed plugins can be updated or removed from the same screen.
Describe a task you repeat, in your own words. The plugin creator builds the plugin, checks it and lets you decide when to install it, even with its own screen in the Apps menu.
Turn a spreadsheet into a report Attach a CSV or Excel table and ask for a summary with charts. You get a dashboard or a report you can open, check and share.
Prepare a printable exam With the Evalúa plugin, a teacher prepares a school math exam as a printable document, reviews it and reuses its format. Today it covers school math only.
Make certificates and cards With the Cardsmith plugin, office staff prepare certificates, cards and charts from their own data.
Choose Open the folder you want to work on and describe the task in your own words, or open an app from the Apps menu.
Provide Add the files and data that are missing. Alisio reads the folder you opened and, in the Ask permission mode, asks before it changes a file, runs a program or uses the internet.
Review The result appears as a document, table, chart or app. Check it, ask for corrections, then save, print or share it. You keep the final word.
Plugins add tools and apps for a profession. You find them in Settings → Plugins → Plugin catalog, install a private one from a file, or create your own with the plugin creator. Connections to other tools and services come from the MCP catalog, with guided sign-in, a connection check and one-click removal.

The quality of a result depends on the plugin, the model and the services you use. In health, accounting, education or any sensitive decision, Alisio supports your work; it does not replace your professional judgment.
You choose the folder. Alisio works with the folder you open. In the Ask permission mode it asks before it changes a file, runs a program or uses the internet; other modes let more run without asking, and you can switch at any time. See Permission modes.
Working with local files is not the same as keeping everything on your computer. Your conversations and settings are saved on your computer, but what Alisio reads to answer you is sent to the model you configured. With an online service, that service receives it; connected tools and services receive what they need for their task.
Keys stay protected. Keys are stored as credentials, never in plain configuration files.
Not a sandbox. Plugins and programs run with your user's permissions; install only what you trust.
No. You install the app, connect a model in Settings → Models, open a folder and describe the task. Plugins install from the catalog and the plugin creator builds new ones from a description. Current limits: some services in the MCP catalog still need manual setup.
Is it free?
Alisio is free and open source, under the MIT license. The model you connect may have its own cost: online model services charge according to their own prices, and some connected services require an account. A model running on your own computer has no service fee.
Do my files leave my computer?
It depends on what you connect. Alisio and your sessions live on your computer, but the content it reads to help you is sent to the model you configured and, when you use them, to the connected tools and services. With a model on your own computer, that content stays on it, except for tools that use the internet.
Does it work without internet?
It depends on the model and the tool. With an online model you need internet. With a model running on your own computer, Alisio can work offline, but installing plugins, refreshing the catalogs, web search and online services need a connection.
Can I use it in my job?
Yes, for the tasks in Apps for your work: data analysis and reports, designed PDFs, school math exams, thesis writing, certificates and cards. For other tasks, check whether a plugin exists or build one with the plugin creator. Review every result before you use it.
JavaScript for everything elsejs_run combines several tool calls, filters and paginates results, and transforms JSON and text. It runs in a fresh QuickJS WebAssembly VM with no file, network or process access: it can only call Alisio tools, under the same permissions as the agent.
Python for data analysis and AIpython_run covers pandas and NumPy, statistics, scikit-learn, charts and custom dashboards. It runs in a container (oci) or in a restricted Pyodide WebAssembly process (wasm) when available; with analysis.isolation: required it never runs unsandboxed.
Context on demand With forge_guide, the guide for each language loads only when the task needs it, adapted to the engines and packages actually installed, so the prompt stays small.
Alisio 0.11.12 is a stable release, still pre-1.0: minor versions may include breaking changes (see Stability and versioning). Read Known limitations before relying on it. Alisio as a whole is not a sandbox: the shell, local tools and plugins run with your user privileges. Only Forja isolates code (js_run, and Python on the oci or wasm backends), with the limits documented in Forja.
