About Free Desktop OrcaBot for macOS
OrcaBot is a virtualized sandbox for securely orchestrating your AI tools. The tools and agents themselves run inside an isolated virtual machine. Until now, OrcaBot has run exclusively in the cloud using Fly.io virtual machines. Those machines cost money to operate, which is why the cloud version of OrcaBot requires a subscription. Because the computing happens on your own hardware, no subscription is required. The local sandbox provides the same core isolation model as the cloud version.
About NodePad
Agent on canvas. NodePad lays your AI conversations out on a canvas, so you try more ideas, keep the answers that hold up, and never lose the thread that mattered. You can then use the arrow keys to move the node around. You can then press delete to remove it or escape to cancel. Every message on a NodePad canvas is a node you can build on, and the model only ever sees the context you chose.
