Why Early Access?

“LocalHelper.ai is an ambitious privacy-first AI assistant that runs fully offline on your PC. We're launching in Early Access to gather real-world feedback and prioritize the most valuable features for users. Voice AI is deeply personal and highly context-driven — Early Access allows us to shape the assistant together with the community, test ideas early, and iterate quickly. Your input will directly influence how the assistant grows.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“Roughly 1–2 months (about 4–8 weeks). We aim to exit Early Access by late August 2025 (to September 1), once we’ve integrated initial user feedback and finalized the core offline-AI workflow.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of LocalHelper.ai is planned to offer a broader set of features, smoother voice interaction, and greater customization. We aim to expand the assistant’s capabilities to include smarter task automation, deeper device integration, multilingual support, and a more refined user experience. The core focus will remain the same: a fast, private, offline AI assistant that runs entirely on your own machine — shaped by real user needs.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“LocalHelper.AI is a fully functional offline assistant powered by local language models. It can help with everyday tasks like answering questions, summarizing content, and holding useful conversations — all without requiring an internet connection.

While the core chat functionality is stable and ready to use, some advanced features (such as device automation and plugin integration) are still in active development. Expect regular updates based on user feedback.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to offer LocalHelper.ai at a lower price during Early Access to reward early adopters and gather feedback. The price may increase as we add more features and approach a stable 1.0 release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We actively involve the community by encouraging users to suggest features and vote on development priorities through our public feedback board (see the "Forum" link, or click "Suggest idea" from the app menu). Feedback can also be submitted directly from within the app. Community input plays a central role in shaping how LocalHelper.AI evolves — from new capabilities to interface improvements and device integrations.”
