ARIA AI Connector
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your AI. Your context. Your control. Every AI assistant starts each conversation knowing nothing about you. ARIA fixes that. Load your voice, your standards, your projects and your working style into every session โ and get answers that fit you from the first message, not the fifth. WHY ARIA IS DIFFERENT Most AI apps are a chat box with a memory bolted on. ARIA treats context as something you own and organise: structured, reusable, and yours to control. You decide what the model sees, when, and for which task. CONTEXT THAT CARRIES OVER โข Build reusable context โ your writing voice, your tech stack, your research focus, your client's brand โข Load exactly what a conversation needs, instead of re-explaining yourself every time โข Group and layer context so a project inherits what it should and nothing it shouldn't BRING YOUR OWN MODELS โข Connect multiple providers and pick the right model per task โข Switch models mid-conversation without losing the thread โข Keep your own API keys โ your relationship with your provider stays yours WORKFLOWS THAT DO THE WORK โข Build multi-step workflows that research, draft, transform and deliver โข Put an approval gate anywhere a human should decide before anything happens โข Schedule workflows to run on their own, and hear about it when they finish โข Deliver results to chat, a saved document, email, a webhook โ or a push notification NOTIFICATIONS THAT RESPECT YOUR ATTENTION โข Know the moment a workflow finishes or needs your approval, even with ARIA closed โข Review or reject an approval straight from the notification โข Choose which notifications you get, and set quiet hours โข Nothing is lost if your phone misses one โ it's waiting in the app TALK TO IT โข A voice conversation mode built for phone and iPad โข Dictate instead of typing, with on-device speech recognition CONNECTED, WITH REVIEW โข Email and calendar connections, with your approval required before anything is sent, changed or deleted โข Save email as PDF, pull documents in as context SECURITY AND CONTROL โข Credentials encrypted at rest โข Sign in with Apple, Google or Microsoft โข Your context is yours โ organised, inspectable, and deletable Whether you're a developer who wants idiomatic suggestions, a writer who wants copy in their own voice, or an analyst who's tired of explaining the basics โ ARIA gives the model the picture it's been missing. Start free. No credit card required. Built on your own positioning โ "Your AI. Your context. Your control." and the duct-tape framing from the one-pager โ but written for an individual App Store buyer rather than an enterprise reader. Terms of Use: https://ariaconnector.com/terms
