Tell Codi what you want to build. It writes the plan, runs AI agents in parallel across all your projects, and picks the cheapest model that can do each task, so you ship more and spend less. When you add a project it writes the charter and task list itself, and only pulls you in when a decision needs you, through one inbox.
AskCodi is a desktop-first AI engineering platform that turns a single conversation into a coordinated software delivery team. Instead of managing multiple AI agents yourself, you tell Codi what you want to build, and it handles the rest — mapping the project, creating tasks, assigning specialist agents, and routing only the decisions that need you to a single inbox. The app runs locally on your machine, keeping your code private, and intelligently picks the cheapest model capable of each task to keep costs down.
You describe the outcome you want, and Codi creates a project map, a task board, and a coordinated engineering team. Specialist agents work in parallel, Codi reviews their output, and you only step in when a decision requires your input — all from a single conversation thread.
Backend, frontend, QA, and security specialists work simultaneously in isolated git worktrees. Codi manages dependencies, handoffs, and clean merges, so up to four agents can build in parallel while you stay in one conversation.
Codi automatically chooses the right AI model for each task. Routine work stays on efficient, cheaper models, while complex architecture and debugging get more reasoning power. You bring your own provider keys or add an optional AskCodi API usage plan — no second bill.
Your code never leaves your machine. The desktop app runs entirely locally, and you control which models access your work through your own API keys.
"One conversation with Codi replaces coordinating a room full of agents."
Most AI coding tools make you manage agents individually. AskCodi flips that: you stay in one conversation, and Codi handles the orchestration, task assignment, model selection, and code review. The result is a dramatically simpler workflow where you focus on decisions, not coordination.
You're a developer who wants to ship more with less overhead, already have AI subscriptions you'd like to reuse, and prefer a local-first tool that keeps your code private. AskCodi is especially useful if you're tired of manually routing tasks between different AI agents or switching between multiple chat windows.
