Saelyx vs Orvena

Saelyx is an assistant that lives with you across every device, carrying your memory, your knowledge and your files. This app is one of its doors. It's in early access, and it's open: download the app and sign in with your email. SEES, HEARS AND ACTS AT ONCE Most assistants do one thing at a time: they read, or they listen, or they look. Saelyx does all three at once and reasons about them together. Show it your screen while you talk to it and hold something up to the camera, and it understands the three as a single situation. · Screen · reads what you have in front of you while you work. · Camera · show it something and it understands it straight away. Includes up to 10 camera photos a day; each new photo uses 2 units of your cycle. · Voice · listens to you continuously, with nothing to press. REAL CONVERSATION It answers in under a second, and you can cut in mid-sentence, the way you would with a person. No waiting for it to finish before you change the subject. IT REMEMBERS YOU, AND YOU CAN READ WHAT IT REMEMBERS What you tell it today is still there tomorrow: names, context, preferences. Out of that it distils a portrait of who you are, which you can open, edit, regenerate and delete. It is plain text, not a black box. YOUR KNOWLEDGE, INSIDE IT Upload your documents and they become its own: contracts, manuals, notes, whatever you have. Ask across all of them at once, by voice too, and it searches inside them, not by filename. IN YOUR MEETINGS Meeting Mode listens, follows the thread and keeps what you need in view while you're still talking. Not a summary at the end: help during. Afterwards you keep the summary and the transcript, on every one of your devices. YOUR DAY, IF YOU LET IT With your permission it reads this iPhone's calendar to tell you what meetings you have when you ask. It only reads: it never creates or changes events, and it does not store the contents of your calendar. IT REMINDS YOU Ask it to remind you of something and it will. Your reminders sort themselves, soonest first. DICTATION IN ANY APP Its own keyboard so you can dictate wherever you type, and a history of what you dictated in case something goes missing. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app lets you talk to Saelyx without taking your phone out, and it replies out loud. BUILT FOR iPad Not the iPhone app stretched: on iPad it has its own sidebar and detail pane. THE SAME ACCOUNT, EVERYWHERE iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and the browser. What's inside — your memory, your knowledge, your files, your meetings — is the same from any of them. This app is a door, not a separate copy. YOURS, AND PORTABLE Make a backup with your memories, your notes and your files, keep it yourself and load it back whenever you want. Export your profile and your sessions. Two-factor verification with your authenticator app, control over the sessions and devices you have open, and full deletion of your account. BUILT AROUND YOU Tune how it answers you and how long it thinks before replying. And teach it new skills, which it reuses from then on. PRIVACY, SPECIFICALLY · Your voice and whatever you show it are processed on the spot, and are not stored to train models. · Your data is stored encrypted on servers in Europe, tied to your account alone. · No advertising. We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with third parties to profile you. · Before storing anything sensitive we ask you in writing, explaining what, where, for how long and how to delete it. And you can withdraw it whenever you want. · Before doing something that cannot be undone, Saelyx asks you to confirm. Saelyx grows every week: what it does today isn't what it will do next month. Saelyx talks with you using artificial intelligence. Answers can contain mistakes: check them before making decisions that matter. An internet connection is needed in order to talk.

Orvena is a complete assistant that runs on your iPhone. Its models run on the device itself, so conversations stay on your phone unless you choose a cloud model. There is no account, no Orvena server, and no analytics. ASK, AND IT GETS DONE Orvena works with the phone you already have: calendar, reminders, alarms and timers, maps and travel times, photos, Apple Health summaries, music, and files. Every action leaves a receipt you can read, and anything consequential asks for your approval before it runs. APPLE INTELLIGENCE, BUILT IN On iOS 27, Orvena can answer with Apple's on-device model, with nothing to download. It uses the same tools, receipts and approvals as Orvena's own model. You can also ask Orvena from Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight and the Action button, and get the answer right where you asked. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE Privacy pages usually ask for trust. Orvena's is a list: everything the app can ever send is enumerated in a short ledger in the privacy policy. On-device features work without any data leaving the phone, and anything that could ever leave asks first through a named consent step. ONE PURCHASE UNLOCKS THE REST The on-device assistant, every phone tool, web search and reading, and image understanding are free, without limits or a trial clock. A single one-time purchase adds: • Voice conversations, with a natural voice generated on the device • Connections to services you use, like Notion, Linear, GitHub, Home Assistant, and any MCP server, with sign-in built in • Apple's Private Cloud Compute on iOS 27, a larger model on Apple's servers that doesn't keep your data, within a daily limit Apple sets • Cloud models with your own API key, when you want a bigger model • Scheduled tasks, so Orvena can check on things at the right time and report back There is no subscription. REQUIREMENTS Orvena's own model runs on the phone itself, which needs recent hardware: iPhone 15 Pro or newer with 8 GB of memory, on iOS 26. The model, about 3.5 GB, downloads once. On iOS 27, iPhones with Apple Intelligence turned on can start with Apple's model instead, without the download.
