Docs & help

Set up Vixi, connect your apps and devices, see what it remembers, and choose when it asks.

Getting started

  1. Create an account with your email and a password, or a one-time code sent to your email.
  2. Vixi AI sets up your own private Vixi while you wait. The first time takes about 30 seconds.
  3. Say hello in Chat. Answers appear live, and steps like "Searching the web" show as small pills. Press Stop (or Esc) any time.
  4. Open Connections to link your apps. Then get the Vixi AI phone app and the computer connector from Download.

Connections

Connections let Vixi act in your accounts. Every app shows the same Connections hub, and each card says Not connected, Connecting, Connected as … or Needs attention.

  • Sign-in services (Google, Slack, GitHub, Spotify, Microsoft) open the provider's own sign-in page in a popup.
  • Device codes (Codex): Vixi shows a short code. Press Copy & Open, paste it on the provider's page, and the card turns green by itself.
  • Tokens (Claude Code): run claude setup-token and paste the token into the one field.
  • Saved logins and secrets (site passwords, a Telegram bot): a secure form saves them straight to your vault.
  • Your browser (Chrome, Safari): add Vixi AI for Chrome, or turn on Safari control on your Mac, then click Allow. See Your browser below.

Once connected, Vixi refreshes tokens in the background and never asks twice. If something breaks, the card shows Needs attention with a one-tap Reconnect. A card marked Needs setup by admin isn't available on this server yet.

Coding engines

Vixi can hand coding tasks to your own Claude Code or Codex. You describe the change. Vixi writes the prompt, starts the run, watches each step, checks the diff and test results, asks for fixes if something's off, then opens a pull request for you to approve.

  • Where it runs: if the repo is on a computer with the computer connector, Vixi uses the Claude Code or Codex installed there. Otherwise it clones the repo from GitHub into your cloud workspace and pushes the result as a branch.
  • Which one: if only one is connected, Vixi uses it. With both, Vixi asks once which should be the default (change it in Settings → Coding). You can say "use Codex for this" for a single task. With neither, Vixi makes small changes itself.
  • Best of two: turn it on in Settings and both tools try the task on separate branches, then Vixi compares the results. Off by default.
  • Approvals: merging, pushing to a protected branch and deleting a branch always ask first.

Memory

Vixi remembers you for good, not just in one chat: your people, preferences and routines. Say "Remember I'm allergic to nuts" and weeks later, on any device, dinner plans come back nut-free.

  • See it. Open Memory to read everything Vixi knows, in plain words.
  • Change it. Edit a memory, or delete it and Vixi forgets.
  • Everywhere. One memory per account, shared by the web, Android and your computer.

Memory stays in your own private Vixi and is never used to train AI models. More in Security & privacy.

Your browser (Chrome and Safari)

Vixi can use your own browser, signed in to everything you are. It can list your open tabs, read a page, open new ones, click and type. It's separate from Vixi's cloud browser, which has no logins.

Vixi AI for Chrome also works in Edge, Brave and Arc. Tabs Vixi opens go in their own tab group, and while it's clicking, Chrome shows a "started debugging this browser" bar. Pause or disconnect any time from the extension's popup, or under Connections → Chrome.

Safari on a Mac works through the Vixi AI app with Safari turned on. Nothing runs in Safari while the app's helper is off.

Download has the extension, the Vixi AI app for Mac and setup steps for both.

Devices

Every browser, phone and computer you sign in on gets its own device key. See them all in Devices. Revoking one signs it out within seconds.

To add a computer, install the Vixi AI app on it and sign in with the same account. It connects by itself. Then Vixi can use that computer's files, terminal and browser from your phone, inside the folders you allow.

Approvals & payments

Vixi shows an approval card before risky actions. Pick an approval mode in Settings, or change it for one chat:

  • Manual (default): Vixi asks before any risky command or file action, like deleting, overwriting or installing. Reading and searching just happen.
  • Smart: an AI safety reviewer checks each risky action first. Clearly safe ones go ahead. Vixi asks you about the rest.
  • Auto: Vixi works without asking. Risky actions still ask unless you allowed them in Settings → Auto mode.

By default, these ask in every mode: sending messages as you (email, Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram), uploading files to the internet, payments, typing passwords and using protected apps like Finder or Terminal. In Settings → Auto mode you can let Vixi do any of them on its own in Auto chats, one by one or all at once. Reading Vixi's own saved sign-ins and changing its security settings stay blocked.

Payments need your approval with Face ID or your fingerprint in the app, or a passkey on the web, unless you allowed Pay and buy in Auto mode. Either way Vixi can't go over the per-purchase and monthly spending limits you set in Settings. If the price changes, Vixi stops and asks again.

When Vixi needs a password or key, a secure request shows up on every device you're signed in on. Fill it in on whichever is closest. More in Security & privacy.

Sleep & wake

Your Vixi sleeps after about five idle hours. When you come back, it wakes up. That can take up to about 20 seconds, and you'll see a short waking screen. Running tasks, schedules and open voice sessions keep it awake. Use Keep awake in Settings to keep it on for a while.

Vixi AI for Work

Vixi AI for Work gives a company shared knowledge, AI teammates and admin controls. It’s in early access. See what it does or compare plans.

  1. Start a pilot to create your company.
  2. Invite people by email or by company domain. If an email can’t be sent, you get a link to share.
  3. Connect your company apps: Drive, Slack, Notion, GitHub, Confluence, Jira and Linear.
  4. Set up sign-in, teammates and approvals from the admin console.
  • SSO and SCIM. SAML and OIDC sign-in, and automatic user setup with SCIM. Admins can require SSO. Included in Business.
  • Teammates. An AI teammate has its own name, role and account. A new one starts in shadow mode: it only suggests, and a person reviews each suggestion.
  • Approvals. Risky actions wait for a person, who sees the exact action first. Approve from your phone, Slack or the web inbox.
  • Knowledge. A result shows only if both the source’s permissions and the Space allow it. Answers cite their sources.
  • When someone leaves. Their sessions are revoked and a memory is saved so the team keeps what they knew.

FAQ

Is Vixi the same on my phone and the web?
Yes. One Vixi per account. Every device shows the same chats, memory and connections. Start on your phone, finish on your laptop.
What does Vixi remember?
Your people, preferences and routines, like "I'm allergic to nuts". It carries over to every chat and device. Open Memory to see, edit or delete anything.
Will Vixi spend money without asking?
No. Every payment needs your approval with Face ID, your fingerprint or a passkey, and has to fit your per-purchase and monthly limits.
What happens when I’m not using it?
After about five idle hours your Vixi sleeps to save energy. It wakes when you next open an app, usually within 20 seconds, and on its own for a scheduled task.
Which AI model does Vixi use?
Leading hosted AI models, such as Anthropic's Claude. For coding, you can plug in your own Claude Code or Codex account.
What do the plans include?
Free gives you your own private Vixi with memory, everyday intelligence and every connection. Plus is smarter and adds priority wake. Pro is our most capable and adds keep-awake, best-of-two coding and multiple computers. Plus and Pro start with a 1-month free trial (card required). See Pricing.
How do I cancel or change my plan?
Open Plan & billing in the app (Settings → Plan). Upgrades apply right away. Downgrades and cancellations start at the end of the period, and you keep your Vixi and its memory on Free.
How do I delete my account?
Email us from the address you signed up with and we'll delete your Vixi, memory, vault and backups within 30 days. Cancel any paid plan first so it doesn't renew.
