Your device is the home base
Conversations, memory, tasks, configuration and operational history live in the local workspace on your chosen device or Docker server.
A useful assistant needs access. A trustworthy one makes the boundaries visible.
Assistela is designed so you can choose the sources, permissions and approval level instead of handing over an invisible all-or-nothing authority.
Connect only what you choose
Email, calendar, reminders, files, browser and other sources are available only when you configure and permit them.
Important actions can wait
Destructive, financial, secret-related and other sensitive steps can pause for an explicit approval.
Secrets have dedicated storage
API keys, passwords and tokens can be kept in macOS Keychain or the protected app database according to your setup.
Remote traffic is encrypted
Assistela Client for iPhone and iPad uses an encrypted pairing and transport path to your main Assistela host, including Docker.
History remains inspectable
Tool calls, scheduled runs and important delivery events remain available for troubleshooting and review.
Start with less
Connect one source and one routine first. Add more only when the benefit is clear and the boundary feels right.
Keep final decisions yours
Preparation, research and routine organization are ideal to delegate. Payments, irreversible changes and consequential decisions deserve your review.
