In their own words
Aside
Aside is an AI browser designed to carry out complex tasks across websites where the user is signed in. It can handle sign-ins, messages, payments, internal tools, and files on the computer. Aside works directly with websites and accounts, so separate integrations do not need to be configured. Users can use a ChatGPT or Claude subscription, or bring their own API key. The browser turns browsing history and task context into editable Markdown memory stored on the device. Its Aside Vault password manager fills website credentials without exposing them to the agent and records credential use; it can import from 1Password, Apple Passwords, Bitwarden, Dashlane, LastPass, and Chrome. The maker describes local data protection, Secure Enclave, post-quantum encryption, and filesystem and network isolation. It says sensitive actions such as payments, posts, and messages wait for user confirmation. Aside runs on macOS and Windows. The Free plan includes 500 credits per month and up to three routines. Pro costs $20 a month; Max costs $200 a month.
