Your personal AI assistant that can modify itself entirely. No limits. This desktop app is for you. Make it yours. Stell can: background computer use, browser use, word/excel/ppx/etc, coding, media generation (image/video/3d...) Text stella from your phone. The desktop app is polished, and comes with every agent feature you expect. 0 setup is required, extremely easy to use.
I built Stella because every AI app forces you into their design and feature choices. Stella is the opposite — it's a desktop app where the entire app itself is editable by asking. Want a sidebar tab for your Spotify queue? Ask. Want a different chat layout? Ask. Open source, your data stays on your computer. Stella is both your personal assistant and your desktop app. Add, change, or remove whatever you want. The features are up to you, not someone else.
