Corivo is a shadow agent that grows with you. It runs as a Mac app, watches the work you're already doing, and is itself an AI agent — when you give it a command, it acts with full context, drawing on a local history of what you've seen and the tools you've connected. This page is the shortest path from "what is this?" to "how do I try it?"

What Corivo actually does

You're working on something. You'd like an AI to help. Today, that means switching to ChatGPT or Claude or Cursor, briefing it from scratch, and waiting for an answer.

Corivo replaces that. Its agent already has the project, the ticket, the thread you were just reading — because it's been quietly watching the work and because it can call into your connected tools directly. You give it a command in plain language, and it does the thing. You don't switch tools to brief a fresh AI. You don't break out of what you were doing.

What you need

  • A Mac running macOS (Apple Silicon or Intel).
  • A spare 60 seconds for setup.

You do not need to learn a new app. Corivo runs in the background, not in front of you.

How to join

Corivo is in public beta on macOS. To get on the list:

  1. Visit corivo.ai.
  2. Drop your email in the waitlist.
  3. We email you a download as soon as your slot opens up.

The Free plan stays free forever. During the public beta, the integration-count and prompt-count limits in the paid tiers aren't enforced — once Pro and Team launch later this year, those limits start applying. You'll be pinged the moment your tier opens up.

Day one

When Corivo first runs on your Mac, here's what to expect:

  1. It asks for the macOS permissions it needs. Accessibility (so it can read your active screen via the OS's standard screen-reader channel) and Full Disk Access (so its agent can act on your behalf — read files, run commands you authorize).
  2. You connect the tools you live in. Settings → Integrations has one-click OAuth for Notion, Slack, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, GitHub, GitLab, Linear, Feishu, Sentry, Intercom, Mem, and more. Connect the ones you actually use; skip the rest.
  3. It steps out of the way. Corivo runs in the background. You go back to your normal day.
  4. You give it a command. When you'd otherwise reach for ChatGPT or Claude, you ask Corivo. The first time you don't have to brief, you'll feel it.

Stop briefing your AI.

Corivo watches your work and connects your tools so every AI you use walks in with the context. Free for macOS during the public beta.
