Still have questions?Here's what people ask most.
What can I do with it?
Speak instead of typing in any app, turn rambling thoughts into a clear email, translate between Japanese and English, shorten long text, and catch typos. Everything you make is kept in History.
How is this different from ChatGPT or Claude?
ChatGPT and Claude can do almost anything if you know what to ask. Artifact Four does a few everyday jobs very well, with nothing to type but your text, and runs on your Mac instead of a company's servers.
Is my data private?
Yes. The AI runs on your Mac, so what you say and write never leaves it. There's no account and no telemetry: no usage data is sent anywhere, and nothing goes to an AI company.
Can I use it for confidential work documents?
Yes. Nothing you paste or say leaves your Mac, so client emails, contracts and internal documents stay with you.
Does it work without the internet?
Yes. You need the internet once, to download the AI models (about 6 GB). After that, every tool works offline.
Will it work on my Mac?
You need a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or later), macOS 15 or later, and at least 16 GB of memory. To check, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu.
Is there a version for iPhone or Windows?
No. Artifact Four is made only for the Mac, so it can make the most of Apple Silicon and fit right in with macOS.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Download it, open it, and start. There's no sign-up, no email and no password.
I'm not good with technology. Is it hard to set up?
Not at all. Open the app and follow the Get started list on Home.
Which languages does it understand?
The app is in English and Japanese. Dictation understands 14 languages, and Translate works between Japanese and English.
How good are the results? Can I trust them?
Clean and natural for everyday writing. Like any AI, it can sometimes mishear a word or slip on meaning, so read important messages before sending. To make dictation even better, tell it your field of work and add the names and terms you use in Settings › Dictation.
