About Qutai
Qutai is a browser with an assistant at its core. It reads the page, compares your tabs, fills in forms, books and researches, remembers what you tell it on your phone, and stops to ask before anything that matters.

The assistant
Qutai’s assistant works in your tabs: it reads pages, taps, types, opens and compares tabs, step by step. Every step is shown as it happens, and you can stop it at any time. And it remembers what you tell it, so each task needs less explaining than the last.
Read, compare, decide
Open two or three product pages and ask which one fits. Qutai reads each tab without switching away, notes prices, delivery times and specs, and answers with a table it can also hand you as a CSV file.
Fill, check, stop
It enters your name, address and the delivery note you saved, after asking whether it may use your remembered details on that site. At the payment step it stops: the assistant never types card numbers, passwords or one-time codes. You pay yourself.
Book, note, remind
Find a table or an appointment and fill in the form. Afterwards Qutai offers to add it to your calendar or set a reminder, showing the details for you to approve. When a place takes bookings by phone, you get a Call button and dial yourself.
Search, read, cite
Deep research searches and reads many pages and PDFs, takes notes and writes a report with its sources listed under the answer. Share it as a PDF. It takes a few minutes and uses more of your API credit.
What the assistant manages depends on the model you choose and on the site. These are examples of what the code supports; most of it has not yet been tested on a real phone.
Memory, on your phone
Tell Qutai your addresses, sizes, diet or budget, or answer a few optional questions when you set it up. It files what it learns under categories, uses it in later tasks without asking again, and follows your custom instructions in every request. The more you use it, the less you have to explain.
Privacy by design
You choose how Qutai reaches the AI. Today it uses your own key: requests go from your phone straight to your provider, with no Qutai account and no Qutai server in between. Later, a paid Qutai service will be an option for those who would rather not manage a key.
With your own keyAvailable now
With the Qutai servicePlanned · optional · paid
Use a key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini or OpenRouter, or your own OpenAI-compatible server (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM). Choose the model, even per conversation. This route stays, whatever comes later.
Tabs, history, bookmarks, chats and the assistant’s memory are stored on the device. Passwords, card numbers and one-time codes are never put in memory; ID numbers and memories you lock reach the AI only as a label.
For each site, the assistant may act freely, ask before every action, only read, or stay out. Separately, you decide whether it may enter your remembered details there.
A list of every request: when, which provider and model, which site, and what went with it. The content itself is kept only in memory until the app closes.
Incognito tabs keep no history, and conversations that touch them stay in memory only. Memory, location and calendar are off there, and the incognito tabs can be locked.
Sensitive actions need your yes. Calendar, location, notifications, downloads and image uploads are confirmed every time; calls, texts, WhatsApp messages and emails are only drafts that you send.
The paid Qutai service (an account, sync and Qutai credits instead of your own key) is planned for the store builds, not built yet. It will be optional: your own key keeps working, and the open-source build never needs a Qutai server.
And a browser too
A tab group shares one conversation with the assistant. Idle tabs sleep to save memory.
Light, dark or sepia, serif or sans, easier-reading spacing. Read aloud follows the article paragraph by paragraph.
Pick EasyList, EasyPrivacy or AdGuard Turkish, or add any list by its address. Lists are downloaded on the phone; rules that block whole domains are used.
Audio keeps playing with the screen locked. On iPhone a video goes on as sound only, and some sites such as YouTube still stop it.
Their own cookies and site data, gone when you close them, with an optional biometric lock.
No account, no sync: export everything to one password-protected file and import it on another phone.
Import the file Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge exports, and export the same format.
Dictate tasks with the phone’s own speech recognition, on the device when the phone and language allow.
Save a page as PDF or a stitched screenshot of the whole page, or keep it for offline reading.

Getting started
Not in the stores yet: build it from the repository today, or follow the project on GitHub.
Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter or your own server. A paid Qutai service is planned as an option.
Tap the Q in the address bar and say what you need, in your own words.
Open source
The whole app is in the repository under the Apache License 2.0: the agent, its safety rules, what is sent to the AI and how. You can build it with your own toolchain, or in the cloud with your own Expo account.
The licence covers the code. The Qutai name and logo are trademarks: a fork you publish needs its own name and icons, as TRADEMARKS.md explains.
Build it on your machine
git clone https://github.com/sonsuzdongu/qutai.git
cd qutai
npm install
cp .env.example .env

Qutai is in development. It is not in the App Store or Google Play yet, and most of what this page describes is implemented in the code but has not yet been tested on a real phone.
