Vox - The first local AI that actually does things on your Mac

Everyone's building AI chatboxes. Jan, LM Studio, Ollama — they run models locally, but all you get is a chat window. Cloud tools like ChatGPT and Claude are smarter, but cost $20-100/mo and can't touch your files. Vox is different. A local AI that acts: voice commands, iMessage gateway, screen overlay, file ops, background agents. All offline, all free. Mac-first today. Windows and Linux are next — and it's open source, so you can help bring it there.
