Cedar Assistant vs PageLines

Cedar is a flexible AI workspace for iPhone and iPad that lets you choose the right model for the job. Use Apple Intelligence for on-device experiences, connect to your own Ollama server for self-hosted open-source models, or work with cloud models from Claude, OpenAI, and Gemini, all from one app. Switch between providers and models per conversation, fine-tune behavior with conversation-specific settings, attach files in supported workflows, generate images with supported OpenAI and Gemini models, and view web citations when supported responses include them. Cedar also brings Claude Managed Agents into the app, giving you a more powerful way to handle multi-step work and specialized assistants in one place. You stay in control of how each conversation is handled. Keep work on-device with Apple Intelligence, route it through your own Ollama setup, or use connected providers when you want access to their hosted models and tools. Cedar is designed to make those choices clear and practical, while securely storing API keys in Keychain. Whether you want private on-device help, self-hosted open-source models, or access to leading cloud AI systems, Cedar makes it easy to move between them without changing apps or workflows. It’s built for people who want one place to explore, compare, and work with modern AI on their own terms.

Personal AI agents for work. Each PageLines agent runs on its own computer, uses open models, and works with your team. A forward-deployed expert sets it up with you. Ask it to find an answer across apps, prepare a brief, draft a follow-up, or update the tools you already use, from iPhone, iPad, or Mac. On iPhone, your agent is a message or a voice conversation away wherever you are. On iPad, your chats sit beside the conversation. Talk to it. Start a voice conversation from any chat, hear your agent answer aloud, and interrupt it whenever you want. Every spoken turn lands in the same transcript as your typed messages. Coach it as you work. Say “put the decision first and skip billing when the account is current” once, and it follows that preference in future briefs. Your agent can: • Pull context from multiple apps into one answer • Talk with you live and keep every turn in your chat • Triage your inbox and draft replies in your tone • Prepare meetings, follow-ups, and teammate handoffs • Turn plain-English instructions into standing automation • Ask for approval before anything important goes out Connect Gmail, Calendar, and other tools from the app. Open your agent's screen to watch it work. Add a specialist agent from the Chats screen when one job deserves its own. For teams, every person gets their own agent. Agents coordinate through the channels your team already uses. For PageLines customers and invited teammates.
