ShogunAI
About ShogunAI
ShogunAI is a local AI assistant designed to operate entirely on a user’s Mac, capturing work context from integrated tools such as email, calendar, documents, and chat applications. It builds a private memory of the user’s workday, including decisions, commitments, and open tasks, which can be queried in plain language with sources and timestamps attached. The tool supports three levels of autonomy: reversible actions that run automatically, drafts that require user review, and actions that leave the device only after explicit approval. Execution occurs within the user’s existing tools, such as drafting emails, updating documents, or filing meeting minutes, without sending data to external servers by default. ShogunAI also provides features like inline drafting, live translation, and daily briefs summarizing overnight activity and pending tasks. It is built for professionals who rely on contextual knowledge to complete their work efficiently.
