Friday

Local-first voice assistant for Linux

A private voice and text assistant for one Linux workstation: microphone input, transcription, Qwen inference, durable memory, and speech output all run locally. No hosted inference or telemetry is required for the core assistant.

Talk, don't type

Voice turns are heard, answered, and spoken — Parakeet ASR on CPU, Piper or OmniVoice for speech, Qwen doing the thinking, all on your machine.

Actions with receipts

Policy checks, exact approvals, and post-action receipts sit between model output and state-changing work. The model can propose; Friday reports done only after the executor records evidence.

Durable local memory

Transcripts, tasks, corrections, preferences, reminders, and receipts persist in SQLite — Friday recalls last week's decisions from your local graph.

Bounded tools

File, process, browser, web, and desktop tools with granted paths and network access only for the URLs you give.
