A teammate that ships work.
Melvin sits next to named Mac apps and Chrome on your machine. You direct each run; mail stays in drafts until you send; high-stakes actions ask first. Review Activity for what ran.
What Melvin handles
Inbox triage and drafts
Searches connected Gmail or Apple Mail, summarizes threads, and drafts replies for your review. Sending asks first.
Calendar that defends focus
Reads Apple Calendar, finds open time, and prepares new events on your Mac. Invites that include other people ask first.
This page in Chrome
Attaches to the frontmost tab to fill forms, extract text, or run a multi-step flow with your real session.
Notes, files, and iMessage
Write Notes, find files, manage Reminders, read iMessage threads. Sending a message asks first. WhatsApp is not supported.
Slack and Google Docs
After a one-time connect under Settings → Your apps: catch up in Slack, post (asks first), find and edit Docs sections (writes ask first).
Auditable output
The Activity view records runs and their outcomes so you can inspect what Melvin attempted.
Why people pick Melvin for work
Most assistants stop at chat. Melvin runs the entire Mac natively and the web in a cloud browser, as one job: it opens Mail, drafts the reply, holds the calendar block and works the web form, then stops before anything permanent.
Mac work never leaves the Mac. Web work runs in a browser Melvin operates in the cloud, and every run says which lane it used. Model requests carry the minimum context a task needs.
Get started
Melvin is for individual Apple silicon Macs today; shared administration and central billing are not shipped yet. Review the download page before installing.
