Hold space and talk
Everything that runs on your own Mac is free, and stays free. Away is Moe no longer being limited by your Mac being awake.
Everything on your Mac. Forever.
Moe when the Mac is shut.
The same, with more of it.
Your AI is your own at every price: a Claude or ChatGPT account, an API key, or a model on your Mac. We do not resell it, and we do not mark it up. See how it connects. Upgrade from the app, under Settings › Away.
Yes. Everything that runs on your Mac — the assistant, its voice, its ears, meetings, memory, every connection — is free and stays free. The only cost is the AI account you bring, and that is between you and them.
A private computer in the cloud that Moe moves into. It wakes the moment a message arrives from your phone or a connected service, watches what you asked it to on a schedule, and shares one memory and one conversation with your Mac.
No. On the free plan they go from your Mac to the AI you chose, directly. On Away they go from your own cloud computer to it. Our server stores your memories, conversations and AI sign-in in a form it cannot open. On your cloud computer they are readable, because that is where Moe thinks.
Any time, from the app. Moe moves back onto your Mac and nothing is lost.
Memoe · free · macOS 15 · Apple silicon
Everything is in the app — the assistant, its voice, its speech recognition, and every connector. The one thing that is not is the AI, because it is yours: a Claude or ChatGPT subscription, an API key, or a model on your own Mac. Whichever you pick, the account is yours.
Download Memoe for Mac Maybe later
It is a large download. macOS asks once the first time you open it — click Open, and that is the whole of it.
Opening Memoe for the first time
Memoe is signed and notarized by Apple. The first time you open a copy you downloaded, macOS checks it and asks once:
“Memoe” is an app downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?
Apple checked it for malicious software and none was detected.
Click Open. That is all of it — there is no trip to System Settings and no Privacy & Security step.
After that, Memoe asks for the things it needs as it first needs them: the microphone the first time you talk to it, and permission to control your Mac the first time you ask it to do something there. Those are macOS asking on your behalf, not warnings about Memoe — it cannot hear you or act for you until you say yes.
If you use Homebrew, brew install --cask izzy-gottz/moe/memoe installs the same app. Each version is also on the open-source repository’s Releases page.
Memoe does a great deal already, and it is still being built. You will meet the odd bug, an edge case nobody has hit yet, a corner that is rougher than the rest.
What helps most is the thing we ask in return: tell Moe when something goes wrong. Say it out loud or type it — “that didn’t work” is enough — and it reaches us with what it needs to be fixed.
Memoe is on its way.
It is a large download — 1.13 GB — so give it a few minutes; your browser is fetching it now, and it will be in Downloads when it lands.
Open it when it arrives, and click Open when macOS asks once. The steps again
