Aside

San Francisco, California, United States

What it is

Aside is an AI browser for handling complex tasks on websites where a user is already signed in. It can work with sign-ins, messages, payments, internal tools, and files on the computer, and operates directly with websites and accounts without separate integrations to configure. Users can connect a ChatGPT or Claude subscription or bring their own API key. Aside turns browsing history and task context into editable Markdown memory stored on the device. Its Aside Vault password manager autofills website credentials without exposing them to the agent and logs credential use; imports are listed for 1Password, Apple Passwords, Bitwarden, Dashlane, LastPass, and Chrome. The maker describes local data protection, Secure Enclave, post-quantum encryption, and filesystem and network isolation. It says sensitive actions, including payments, posts, and messages, wait for user confirmation. Aside is available for macOS and Windows. The Free plan includes 500 credits per month and up to three routines. Pro costs $20 a month, while Max costs $200 a month and provides 40 times Free usage.
