What it does

Aria is an AI-powered screen companion for Windows that understands what’s on your display in real time. Capture any app, UI, error, document, or workflow and ask questions naturally — Aria explains interfaces, fixes issues, summarizes content, and guides you step-by-step without requiring screenshots or copy-pasting. Whether you're coding, designing, studying, or just exploring software, Aria turns your screen into an interactive conversation.

Aria lives in your corner of the screen. Capture anything, ask anything — she guides you through software, spots errors, and summarizes what's on your display in seconds. Summon Aria from any app, any moment. She slides in as a compact panel without moving a single window — no tab switching, no context lost. Hit Capture and Aria instantly reads everything visible — the app, the UI, the code, the error. No copy-pasting, no screenshots, no describing what you see. Type naturally. Aria replies with specific, actionable guidance — which button to click, what the error means, how to fix it — grounded in exactly what's on your screen. See something interesting on your screen?

    I built HelloAria because every task manager I tried required too many steps to do something simple. The core idea: say "remind me to review the PR tomorrow at 10" and it creates the task, sets the reminder, and files it. No forms, no manual input. It works on iOS natively and also through WhatsApp, Telegram, and email — so you can capture tasks from wherever you already are. Tech stack: Swift/SwiftUI on the client, with NLP handling the intent parsing and entity extraction from natural language input. Looking for feedback from the HN community. What would make this actually useful for…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
