AIVA’s built-in features
Everything AIVAbrings of its own.
Memory, voice, screen awareness, loops, and the Mac app — the features that make AIVA more than a chatbot. Explore each concretely, with the actions, prompts, and approval model spelled out. Looking to connect Gmail, Slack, or Notion? See integrations.

Connect the tools you use.
Connected app
AIVA for Email
Not on Gmail? Connect any provider over SMTP/IMAP — Fastmail, Migadu, ProtonMail bridge, self-hosted — and AIVA reads, drafts, and sends with the same approval-first care. It can even run its own mailbox on your behalf.
Built-in app
AIVA’s own working apps.
Built-in app
AIVA for Local Files
AIVA keeps its own file cabinet on your Mac — drafts, exports, research reports, received attachments, generated artifacts — so the work it produces is organized and findable instead of lost in chat.
Built-in app
AIVA for Contacts
AIVA builds a deduplicated contact book from your email, calendar, Slack, and GitHub — with relationship context, identities across channels, and the history that makes “when did I last talk to Sam?” a one-line answer.
Built-in app
AIVA for Calendar
Beyond your Google Calendar, AIVA keeps its own event timeline — the things it’s tracking on your behalf — with categories, statuses, notifications, and links to the contacts and tasks each event belongs to.
Built-in app
AIVA for Loops
Loops are AIVA’s recurring schedules — morning briefs, weekly wrap-ups, periodic checks. Describe them in plain language; AIVA handles the cron, the timezone, and what to do when your Mac was asleep.
Core feature
What makes AIVA different.
Core feature
AIVA for Memory
A normal chatbot forgets when you close the tab. AIVA keeps four kinds of memory — durable facts, workflow recipes, live context, and behavior rules — so it knows you, gets faster over time, and never makes you repeat yourself.
Core feature
AIVA for Voice
AIVA listens and speaks — free with the Mac’s built-in voices, or richer with OpenAI or ElevenLabs. Five activation modes, natural interruption, and follow-up listening make it feel like a conversation, not a command line.
Core feature
AIVA for Screen Awareness
Ask AIVA to look at your screen and it captures a single screenshot, reads it with a vision model, and helps — the error, the article, the PDF, the email you’re reading. Only on demand, only after you grant permission, never on a timer.
The app
The app itself.
The app
AIVA for Mac
AIVA is a native Mac app, not a browser tab. It runs locally on 127.0.0.1, keeps its data on your machine, and stays on in the background — remembering, following through, and only surfacing what’s genuinely useful.
