What platforms does Entropic support?

Entropic is available on MacOS, Windows and Linux.

What are the limitations of Entropic?

Prompts still travel to the third party model provider you select, so it is not fully offline. Pay as you go credits or your own API keys mean model costs are variable and hard to predict. No mobile app, so the agent is tied to the desktop where it is installed.

What is Entropic?

Entropic is a desktop AI agent for macOS, Windows and Linux that runs locally, keeps your files on your machine, and connects models, file editing, web browsing, Google apps, messaging and scheduled tasks in one app.

Entropic is a desktop application that puts a general purpose AI agent on your own computer. The app, your workspace and your files stay local. When you send a prompt, it is routed to whichever model provider you have chosen (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral or DeepSeek), and the response comes back into the same chat. The design goal is a personal agent that is useful out of the box rather than a framework you assemble: the installer handles sign in and platform setup, and updates and security fixes arrive without manual maintenance. In daily use the agent can browse and summarize web pages from inside its sandbox, read, write and edit files in your workspace, and apply structured patches across a whole project without leaving the chat. Google integrations let it search Gmail, draft replies and work with calendar events, and messaging channels cover WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram and iMessage so it can send and receive where you already talk. Persistent memory carries context across conversations, and scheduled jobs using cron or interval options let recurring work run in the background. Security is the main differentiator against cloud based assistants. Code runs in an isolated container separated from your personal files and system, with the file system read only by default, and Entropic states that it does not train models on your data. Every tool and skill passes through the Cisco Skill Scanner before it reaches your machine, which gives you some visibility into what the agent is actually allowed to run. For regulated environments, Entropic Black packages the same idea as an on-premise appliance aimed at law firms, finance and R&D teams. The tool suits people who want agent style automation but are not willing to hand their documents to a hosted service or spend hours wiring up servers. It competes less with chat assistants and more with self hosted agent stacks: Entropic trades some configurability for a one click install. Anyone fully committed to a single model vendor, or working mostly on mobile, will find less to like here.

How do you use Entropic?

1Download the installer for your platform
Grab the build for macOS, Windows or Linux from the download page. Entropic runs as a native desktop app, so there is no server to provision before you start.
2Sign in and finish onboarding
The first launch walks you through sign in and the platform specific setup Entropic needs. This is also where account mode is configured if you plan to use Entropic credits.
3Choose a model or switch to your own keys
In account mode a single selector lets you pick among supported providers. If you prefer local keys mode, add your provider credentials in Settings and switch models from there.
4Connect email, calendar and messaging
Link Google for Gmail and Calendar, and configure any messaging channels you use. Once connected, the agent can search mail, draft replies and handle calendar events from the chat.
5Set up a scheduled task
Create a job with a cron or interval schedule and describe the recurring work in plain language. The agent runs it in the background on your machine without any scripting.
