AI Agents · In Build

Meet NOVA AI.

Your desktop AI assistant — talk to it, and it runs your PC.

NOVA is a Windows desktop AI assistant with an animated orb interface, voice and text input, and controls for PC tasks — built in-house at Novi Studio. You type a command or speak to it after waking it; a local Python bridge passes the request to the assistant, which handles the action and replies — in chat, or out loud.

What it does.

Text chat

Type commands and read NOVA's replies right inside the orb interface.

Working

Voice input

Speak your commands — voice input runs through the browser's speech recognition, where supported and configured.

Working

Spoken replies

NOVA can read its replies aloud, with switchable voice options.

Working

PC actions

The assistant handles supported system and application tasks on your PC.

Working

Animated orb + Control Center

Wake NOVA, change the orb's appearance and voice options, and run the interface from one control panel.

Working

Hand gestures

Camera-based hand controls are built in; reliability across different cameras is still being tested.

In progress

Camera preview

The interface can request camera access and show a live preview.

Working

How it works.

You speak or type

Wake NOVA and give a command in the orb interface — by voice or by text.

The bridge passes it on

A local Python bridge carries the request to the assistant running on your PC.

NOVA acts and replies

The assistant runs the action or answers — the reply lands in chat, or is spoken aloud.

The whole loop — input, bridge, action, reply — runs locally on your machine.

Under the hood.

Status

In build — coming soon.

NOVA already launches and runs — orb, chat, voice and PC actions are in. It is not on sale yet, and there is no public installer today. Next up: gesture testing across cameras, clean-install tests, and a one-click installer. When it is ready it will launch here first — and in the meantime, the studio takes custom builds from $100.
