Really interesting, thanks for creating this. I've been slow to adopt the desktop apps (although use the web interface and VS code plugins for all the main players). This might just be the point at which there's a vendor-agnostic option worth investing my effort into setting up.

My question is, can I interact with it over mobile? If I'm away from the desktop, and I want to check-in with it (query the .knowledge, or trigger some coding task etc), is there that option?


Yes! Under settings you can connect your WhatsApp or Telegram and chat with the assistant. It can query your knowledge and trigger coding tasks.

In addition, we have a caffeinate mode (in new release) that keeps your machine awake so the connection doesn't drop. We are also working on a mobile app.


I made an account to thank you for this. I've been looking for a _fast_ alternative to explorer since Windows XP. But one that doesn't require a change in workflow. This is the fastest I've tried by far. I've only been using it for 5 minutes, but I'm sold. Earlybird discount too!

Thank you for posting this, and if you have any other speedy apps you'd recommend I'd welcome suggestions. Mine top suggestions are Speedcrunch [0] (calculator app) and Everything [1] file search combined with Listary [2]

[2] https://www.listary.com/

(For reference, I've tried Total Commander, DOpus, Files, Explorer XP, XY Explorer, Explorer ++, FreeCommander, Double Commander, Q-Dir)


Everything (the tool) is ridiculously fast, I’ve used it for quite a while now and it’s nice to see it mentioned here.


I'll check these out, thanks!

I learned about File Pilot (whose author posts here: https://x.com/vkrajacic) from Casey Muratori (https://x.com/cmuratori) who pushed it a bunch because he loves fast things.


Listary has slowed down tremendously ever since they included search. For a launcher I'm still using "find as run robot", which truly is a 90s era piece of softer but works blazingly fast. I do have a plug-in to tie it into search everything.


Have you tried xplorer²? I only know about it because I was into Windows programming using the WTL eons ago.
