Athene is a local-first AI assistant for macOS. A floating owl on your desktop for notes, meetings, auto-reply, and memory without leaving the app you’re in.
How did Astra change the scope or ambition of what you built?

GPT raised the bar from a capture tool to a real assistant. Without it, Athene is notes + meetings on your Mac. With it, you can chat across that memory, summarize calls into todos, and rewrite replies in your voice — while keeping the data local-first. The owl stays on your desktop; GPT is what lets it actually keep the thread.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m the maker of Athene — a local-first AI assistant for Mac that lives as a floating owl at the edge of your screen.
The idea: you shouldn’t have to paste context into yet another chat box. Athene stays with you — capture notes against whatever you’re looking at, record & summarize meetings, rewrite replies in your voice, and ask across what you’ve already done.
Built for Mac first (Windows coming soon). Free to try.
Would love feedback on what you’d want Athene to remember next.
