How much is Brah?

Brah is free for 7 days. After that, a licence is $29, paid once. It includes a year of updates, and the version you have is yours to keep. There is no subscription.

Is Brah another AI?

No. Brah uses the AI you already have. Your AI does the thinking. Brah shows you on your screen: it talks, points at the button, draws how something works and walks you through it.

Which AI does it use?

Yours. Brah works with ChatGPT (directly or through Codex) and Claude on your own plan, an Anthropic API key, any OpenAI-compatible server, your own Hermes agent, or a local model in Ollama or LM Studio. Brah does the seeing, the talking, the pointing and the drawing.

What is a scene?

When a picture explains better than words, your AI draws a live scene in a panel next to your cursor: parts, notes and moving bits, built step by step while Brah talks. Drag it to turn it, change the speed, ask a follow-up, and save it as a picture or a 3D file. Your AI decides when a scene helps, and "show me" always gets one.

Which voices can it use?

Deepgram, ElevenLabs or Groq with your own key, or the voice you set up in Hermes. Without a voice key, Brah answers in text.

Can I talk to Brah in another language?

Yes. Pick your language in Settings, under Voice. With Deepgram, Brah understands 50+ languages and replies in the one you speak. Deepgram has voices for 40+ of them. Brah is quickest in English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian and Dutch. In other languages it waits for a short pause before it answers. The app's menus, "Hey Brah" and commands like "stop" are still in English.

Is my screen private?

Brah has no account and no analytics. A picture of your screen is sent only when you ask, and only to the AI you chose. With a local model, the picture stays on your computer.

Can it click and type for me?

Yes, with ChatGPT, Claude or Hermes. Brah does the task on its own, and Stop ends it at once. In Settings you choose how much it checks with you. With a local model it points and tells you where to click.

Can Brah handle big questions?

Yes, with Claude or Codex. Your AI splits the question into sub-agents that research the parts at the same time.

Does Brah remember me?

Yes, if you want it to. It can look back through your conversations and keep short notes about you. Both stay on your device. Open the app to see every note and delete any of them.

Which computers does it run on?

Brah is only for macOS for now: any Mac on macOS 14 or later, with Apple silicon or Intel.

How do updates work?

Brah updates itself. Your licence includes every update for a year from the day you buy. After that, Brah keeps working on the last version you got. For another year of new versions, renew for $19. Renewing early adds the year to the end of your current one.

Can I use it on more than one computer?

One licence is for one person on one computer at a time. To move it, enter your key on the new computer, and the old one is signed out. Brah checks your licence once a day, and works offline for up to 30 days.

Can I get a refund?

You can try Brah free for 7 days first, so we do not give refunds unless Brah does not work. If it does not work for you, email brah@ferrolo.com.

Does Brah work on Windows or Linux?

Not yet. Brah is only for macOS for now, version 14 or later. If you need Windows or Linux, the comparison page names apps that run there.

Do I need an account?

Not with us. You download Brah and use it. When you buy, you get a licence key to enter in the app. Your AI may need its own sign-in, such as your ChatGPT or Claude plan.

Is Brah always listening?

Brah hears you while you hold the talk key. With hands-free on, it listens for “Hey Brah”, and that word is heard on your computer itself. No sound leaves your computer until Brah hears it.

Which permissions does it need?

Screen Recording, so it can see your screen. Microphone and Speech Recognition, so it can hear you. Accessibility, only if you want it to click and type for you. The welcome guide asks for each one.

Can it search the web?

Yes. Claude, the Anthropic API and ChatGPT use their own search. A local model searches Wikipedia, or Tavily, Brave Search or your own SearXNG server if you set one up in Settings.

Which local models work?

Any model that understands images, in Ollama, LM Studio or another server with an OpenAI-style API. To draw scenes, the model must also support tools. To click and type for you, the model must take tools and pictures, as most hosted open models do.

Can I change the keys?

Yes. Hold Control, Option and Space to talk by default. In Settings, under Shortcuts, click an action and press the keys you want.
