FAQ

How does wavecat learn what I need?

Answer

wavecat learns by paying attention to your screen acitity in the background. It runs in the background and watches your screen, building up context about what you’re working on. Over time it gets better and better at anticipating what you’ll need next.

All of this learning happens on-device. The context wavecat builds from your screen stays on your machine and is never sent to the cloud.

Thank you for downloading wavecat!

Your download should begin automatically.

Getting started

  • Open the downloaded file and follow the prompts to finish setup.
  • On first launch, wavecat guides you through installing its vision and language models, which take up roughly 19 GB of disk space.
  • You'll then be asked to allow wavecat to watch your screen. Everything runs locally, so no personal data ever leaves your device.

Hardware requirements

  • Mac: Apple Silicon only, with 24 GB unified memory minimum and 32 GB+ recommended.
  • Windows / Linux: a dedicated GPU with 12 GB+ VRAM (Vulkan, plus CUDA on Windows), or a unified-memory device with 24 GB+ RAM.
  • Nothing is strictly enforced, but wavecat won't run smoothly unless your device meets these requirements.
