ACE Start the free trial

One Ace / private software for macOS

State it once. Get the work back.

Ace plans it, routes it to a focused mode, runs it on your Mac - then stops and hands it to you.

It reasons through the ChatGPT or Claude account you already pay for. Not a second subscription. Not a chat window that describes the job back to you.

Live capture / 6 August 2026

The macOS menu bar with Ace's spade status item and its panel open below it, showing a green dot, the name Ace, the word Active, the line Hold cmd plus shift to talk, and a gold-bordered Partner Mode card with its toggle switched off.
Ace 1.14 running on a Mac, 6 August 2026 - the status item in the menu bar with its panel open. The app is idle, Partner Mode is off, and the image is cropped at the top of a longer panel. A resting install, not a session in progress.

What comes back

It returns the work, not a paragraph about the work.

A chat wrapper

Text about your work.

A chat endpoint returns characters. That is the ceiling of the plumbing, whatever is written on the box.

Ace

The work - and a stop.

Ace is wired to Codex and to Claude Code, runtimes that operate on files on the machine they run on. Then it stops and hands the result to you.

01

Your account.

The reasoning runs on the AI account you already pay for. You are not buying a second subscription, and you can revoke it yourself.

02

Your Mac.

The work runs on your machine, on your own files. Nothing is uploaded somewhere to be processed on your behalf.

03

You.

The plan comes back for review. Nothing counts as done until you say so. Ace stops - and stopping is the part a wrapper never reaches.

That is a statement about architecture, not about quality. Ace makes no claim to be a better model than the one you already pay for.

Who it is for

Five desks. One app. One price.

Pick the desk that looks like yours. The routing underneath it is re-issued - same app, same $50, different work.

Choose a desk

You run back-to-back meetings.

Objective / as stated

Turn today's meeting into clean notes.

  1. Capture the session

    The meeting or class is captured as it happens, and the raw capture stays on the Mac.

  2. Reduce it to clean notes

    The capture is condensed into structured notes instead of a wall of transcript.

  3. Separate the open items

    Decisions and things still to do are pulled out of the discussion around them.

  4. Return it for approval

You lose the afternoon to one long job.

Objective / as stated

Watch the long build and tell me when it lands.

  1. Hand it to a background run

    Red Agent takes the long-running task so the main window stays free.

  2. Carry on in front

    You keep working on the next thing while the background task continues on its own.

  3. Report in on completion

    The run reports its own state instead of asking you to keep watching it.

  4. Return it for approval

    The finished work lands in front of you. Ace stops there and waits for the owner.

You are holding a term together.

Objective / as stated

Plan revision for an exam in three weeks.

  1. Set the goal and the date

    The objective becomes a target, with the work laid out between now and it.

  2. Break the material into sittings

    Large subjects are split into sessions small enough to actually start.

    Stealth keeps private coursework out of view while the session runs, on your own machine.

You are looking at a chart.

Objective / as stated

Explain the chart on my screen.

  1. Show Ace the chart

    Trader reads the chart you put in front of it, not a feed it went and found.

  2. Describe what is on it

    Structure, levels, and what the chart is actually showing, stated plainly.

  3. Give context, not a call

    Disciplined market context around the thing you are already looking at. Signals only - no performance is claimed.

  4. Stop at the decision

    Execution is off. No order is placed and no account is touched. Ace does not auto-trade. The decision is yours.

You are the whole back office.

Objective / as stated

Plan the launch of a new service.

  1. Frame the outcome

    The objective is restated as a finished thing with an owner and a date on it.

    ROUTED TO / GOLD AGENTYOUR AI ACCOUNT

  2. Split it into a workflow

    The outcome becomes an ordered set of steps you can hand off one at a time.

  3. Push the slow parts back

    Anything long-running moves to a background run so the day is not blocked by it.

    The workflow comes back as something you can sign off. Nothing counts as done until you approve it.

DEMONSTRATION - NOTHING LEAVES THIS PAGE, AND NOTHING IS EXECUTED.

The five dockets on this page are written, fixed and local. There is no model behind them, nothing is transmitted, and they show the routing only - never an output.

The plan

One price. The whole app.

No tiers to compare, no upsell inside the app, and the one real requirement is stated here rather than at the card form.

$50per month

14-day free trial. Card required. Billing begins on day 15 unless you cancel.

Start the 14-day free trial

Cancel anytime. Ace is macOS software, notarized and downloaded directly - it is not sold through any app store.

  • What you pay

    $50 a month for Ace, after the 14-day free trial. A card is required to start the trial; $50/month begins on day 15 unless you cancel before then.

  • What you bring

    Your own ChatGPT account, or your own eligible Claude account. Ace runs bundled Codex with the first and Claude Code with the second. Neither account is included in the $50 and Ace does not resell them.

  • What it runs on

    Your Mac, on your own files. Ace is macOS software today; availability is listed in the platform row further down rather than welded into a headline.

  • What it will not do

    Finish without you. Place a trade. Watch your screen before you grant the macOS permission. Those limits are the specification, and they are listed in full below.

The requirement

Your account, not ours.

Said here, in full, before you get anywhere near a card.

Ace requires your own ChatGPT account or your own eligible Claude account. Those accounts are not included and Ace does not resell them. Without one, Ace has nothing to reason with.

  • 01

    Not a second subscription

    The reasoning runs on the account you already have. Ace is the layer that puts it to work; it does not sell you a model on top of the model you already pay for.

  • 02

    You can revoke it

    The account is yours. Disconnecting it is a thing you do on your own machine, at the moment you decide to.

  • 03

    Your work does not move

    Ace runs on your Mac, on your files. The work is done where the files already are.

Live capture / 6 August 2026

A cropped panel from the Ace app showing a pronoun row reading he, him, his, a voice picker set to Nora with a Preview button, the line Warm, patient and natural, a paragraph stating that Ace Voice is generated on this Mac by the engine and model sealed inside Ace and requires no Siri voice, account or download, three gold sliders reading Speed 45, Warmth 86 and Energy 42, a gold Save identity and delivery button and a red Reset Partner memory button.
Ace 1.14 on a Mac, 6 August 2026 - the identity and voice block inside the Partner Mode card, cropped from a longer panel. The line on screen is the product's own: "Ace Voice is generated on this Mac by the engine and model sealed inside Ace. It requires no Siri voice, account, or download." That sentence is about the voice. The reasoning still runs on your own AI account. Partner Mode is off and the app is idle.

The interface

It lives on the machine your files are on.

Not a tab. Not a console somewhere else.

Live capture / 6 August 2026

Ace opened as a native macOS window titled Ace Settings with real traffic light controls, showing a green dot, the name Ace, the word Active, the line Hold cmd plus shift to talk, and the top of a gold-bordered Partner Mode card with its toggle switched off.
Ace 1.14 as its own macOS window, 6 August 2026. Idle, Partner Mode off, cropped at the top of a longer panel. These captures run at their true pixel size - the Ace panel is about 320 points wide on screen, so this is the sharpest frame that exists. Screen awareness is a macOS permission that is not granted on this machine, so nothing here is reading a screen.

The modes

Six focused modes. Nothing else behind the composer.

Gold Agent takes the objective and routes it. The label on each row says where that mode's work actually happens.

  • Capture stays on this Mac

    Notes

    Captures meetings and classes, then turns them into clean notes and answers. The raw capture stays on the Mac.

  • Plans through your AI account

    Gold Agent

    The planning seat. One objective in; Ace plans, routes the work to the other modes, and brings the result back for your review.

  • Runs in the background

    Red Agent

    Handles a background task for you while you keep working on the next thing.

  • Off until you switch it on

    Partner

    Keeps your goals on track. In the shipped app it is a card you switch on yourself; it is off until you do.

  • On this Mac

    Stealth

    Protects private schoolwork. It is privacy on the machine in front of you, and it is not sold as a way to conceal anything from anybody entitled to see it.

  • No order is ever placed

    Trader

    Reads the chart you show it and gives disciplined market context. Signals only: execution is off, no order is placed, no account is touched, and no performance is claimed.

Stated plainly

What Ace will not do.

The limits are the specification, not the small print.

Platform

macOS

Ace is a Mac application today and runs on the owner's own machine. Any other platform will be listed in this row when it ships.

Delivery

Direct download

Notarized and downloaded from us. No store listing, so no store badge on this page.

Reasoning

Your AI account

Bundled Codex with your ChatGPT account, or Claude Code with your eligible Claude account.

  • It will not

    Think without your account

    No ChatGPT account and no eligible Claude account means no reasoning. Ace does not include one and does not resell one.

  • It will not

    Place an order

    Trader reads the chart it is shown and gives market context. Signals only: execution is off, it never auto-trades, never touches an account, and no performance result is claimed or implied.

  • It will not

    Watch your screen by default

    Screen awareness is a macOS permission. It is off until the owner grants it, and it is granted in the operating system rather than in a settings page of ours.

  • It will not

    Finish without you

    The result comes back for review. Nothing is treated as done, sent, published or filed until you approve it.

Before you install

Five questions worth asking first.

  • What happens at the end of the 14 days?

    $50/month begins on day 15 unless you cancel before then. A card is required to start the trial, so cancel inside the 14 days if Ace is not for you. Cancel anytime after that as well.

  • Do I have to pay for ChatGPT or Claude as well?

    Yes. Ace requires your own ChatGPT account or your own eligible Claude account, and neither is included in the $50. If you do not already have one, buy that first and come back.

  • Which accounts count as eligible?

    Ace runs bundled Codex with a ChatGPT account, or Claude Code with an eligible Claude account. Which plans qualify is set by those providers rather than by us, so check your own plan against their current terms before you start the trial.

  • Where does my work actually sit?

    On your Mac, on your own files and data. The reasoning goes through the AI account you connect - your account, revocable by you. There is no separate place of ours that your files are moved to in order to be processed.

  • Will Trader ever place a trade?

    No. Trader reads the chart you show it and gives market context. Signals only: execution is off, it never auto-trades, never touches an account, and no performance result is claimed or implied by anything on this page.

Operating boundary

One objective in. One reviewed result out.

Ace runs on the owner's Mac and works on the owner's own files. The reasoning uses an AI account the customer already owns - bundled Codex with a ChatGPT account, or Claude Code with an eligible Claude account - and those accounts are not included. Trader reads the chart it is shown and never places an order. Screen access is a macOS permission and is off until it is granted. Nothing is finished until the owner approves it.
