Questions about Aureon, answered directly.

No. Aureon is create-only by default. It prepares drafts and creates new items, and it never sends messages or emails on your behalf. Sending stays a deliberate action you take yourself. When a request is ambiguous about the destination or the timing, Aureon asks instead of guessing.

No. Aureon does not edit, overwrite, delete, or reorganize content you already have. Every capture adds something new: a new note, task, reminder, event, page, or memo. The one variation is Obsidian, where you can have Aureon append to a designated inbox note (by default an Aureon Inbox note) instead of creating a separate file each time. Either way, the notes you keep elsewhere in your vault are left as they are.

It asks rather than guessing. If the destination app is unclear, or a calendar event is missing a clear start and end, Aureon stops and confirms instead of dispatching a partial action.

Aureon is an AI input and workflow layer for Mac. You speak naturally, and Aureon turns your intent into polished writing, cross-language output, or new items in your connected apps. It runs as a macOS app you download from inaureon.com, and it works inside the apps you already use rather than as a separate chat window.

No. Dictation converts speech to raw text. Aureon turns speech into finished output — polished writing, a message in another language, or a new note, task, reminder, or event in a connected app. The difference shows up most when the spoken input is rough: restarts and half-finished phrasing become a clean message rather than a literal transcript.

Yes. You can speak in the language that comes naturally and produce polished written output in another supported language. The result is written text you review before using — not live simultaneous interpretation or certified translation.

No. Aureon is downloaded directly from inaureon.com, which is the only distribution channel today. There is no iOS, iPadOS, or Windows version.

Intent Cast is Aureon's voice command workflow. You say the task, such as saving an idea as a note or adding a reminder for Friday, and Aureon turns it into a structured result or a supported create-only action: a new note, task, reminder, event, page, or memo in a connected app. If the destination, the time, or another required detail is unclear, it asks instead of guessing. A short command you repeat and a longer spoken instruction both run through Intent Cast.

Smart Actions work on content you already have: text you select, type, paste, or import from your Mac. You choose one action, such as rewrite, translate, summarize, or explain, and get one text result back, or Aureon prepares one reviewed create-only result for a supported app. Intent Cast starts from what you say; Smart Actions start from the content in front of you.

Snippets are saved passages you reuse. Add one with a title and body in Aureon Assistants, press the Snippets shortcut in whichever app you are typing in, and pick the entry. Aureon inserts it at the cursor, or copies it to the clipboard when the app does not accept direct insertion. You pick from a palette instead of typing an abbreviation, so nothing fires inside code or password fields.

Aureon includes four official Smart Actions: Smart Reply, Writing Check, Convert to Markdown and Draft an Email. Voice Translation also offers a Language Learning extension (Beta) that shows a short card after a translation is inserted and uses AI output quota. You add them from Studio → Discover. Convert to Markdown runs on your Mac and doesn't use AI output quota, though it still needs an internet connection to confirm access. Official items and your own actions and agents share extension slots: up to 10 on Plus, and no limit on Max. Built-in actions and native agents don't use slots. Draft an Email only drafts text; it never sends email.

Apple Notes, Apple Reminders, Apple Calendar, Things 3, Obsidian, Flomo, Notion, and Todoist. Advanced users can also connect other systems through a remote MCP endpoint. Setup effort differs: Apple apps connect with one click, Obsidian asks you to choose a vault, and Notion, Todoist, and Flomo use a token or webhook with a one-time connection test.

Yes, when the time is clear. Aureon creates a new event with a title, start, end, timezone, location, and notes, and shows it for review first. It does not add attendees, send invitations, or set recurrence, and if the time is missing or ambiguous it asks rather than creating a partial event.

No. Aureon creates new Notion pages and shows the prepared page before it is created. It does not append to, edit, or overwrite pages you already have.

For Things 3, yes — that connector works when Things 3 is installed on your Mac. Apple Notes, Reminders, and Calendar connect with a system permission. Notion, Todoist, and Flomo connect over the web with a token or webhook, so the app does not need to be installed locally.

Yes. Download the Mac app and get 7 days of Max access. No subscription is required to start. The trial gives you the full Max feature set so you can test polished writing, cross-language output, and reviewable workflows before deciding.

Your Max trial ends and you choose a plan: Plus for everyday use, or Max to keep the higher limits. There is no permanent free tier, so cloud AI features require an active plan after the trial period.

Plus is US$6.99/month or US$59.99/year. Max is US$19.99/month or US$159.99/year. New Plus monthly subscribers can start at US$1.99 for the first month, then US$6.99/month, cancel anytime. Plus includes 5,000 AI output characters per day shared across Input and Workflow, up to 10 extensions (official and your own), and 3 devices. Max includes unlimited extensions.

Aureon does not maintain a cloud library of recordings or transcripts. Voice and optional context are encrypted in transit and sent for processing when you use cloud features. Speech and AI providers process those requests subject to our agreements with them, applicable service settings, and legal requirements. You can turn context sharing off in Settings.
