This is factual product context, not legal terms or a privacy statement.

Atlas is a local-first desktop assistant. It can work with files, applications, system information, voice, and its on-device memory through declared capabilities.

The desktop app is designed to keep its work on the computer. An optional external model can add wider-world reasoning, but is not required for Atlas to function.

What it does

Find local files, open registered applications, and report system status.
Use declared skills to interact with desktop interfaces and perform approved actions.
Use offline voice, local memory, and a local file index when available.
