Russet

What it does

Russet elevates local AI to a 1st-party experience on Apple silicon. It combines Apple Intelligence and hardware-optimized MLX models with pre-configured tuning and simple interfaces like Flow which summarizes, translates, and debates input text. Agent tools sync with your calendar, contacts, and files, while Speech (Mac-only) lets you generate natural, expressive speech in custom voices. Like its namesake russet potato, Russet is the reliable and versatile AI staple you can always count on.
