Description

VANTA OS is a Windows desktop workspace for AI chat and supervised agent tasks. Choose a local model or bring your own API key, keep conversations organized by project, and review proposed file changes before approving them. Chat stays separate from agent execution, with visible permissions, budgets, and activity. This beta launch focuses on everyday usability and keeping you in control.
