Invoko
Invoko acts as a conversational AI assistant integrated into the Mac desktop environment.
What is Invoko?
Invoko functions as a desktop companion that responds to spoken instructions without requiring users to switch between windows or describe their work in detail. It activates through a simple shortcut and processes requests using the active application, selected text, or page content to generate replies, rewrites, or next steps. The assistant maintains continuity across sessions by referencing prior interactions and learned preferences. Permissions for microphone, screen access, and account connections are managed explicitly, with options to limit data retention and avoid server storage of voice inputs. Beta users report smoother workflows in tools like design software and email clients, where voice dispatch enables quick follow-ups and information retrieval while remaining focused on primary tasks.
