Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the Aspenside local agent developer harness. Can't find what you're looking for? Reach out to our developer community.
Aspenside is a definitive desktop control center to self-host, manage, and interact with your AI agents securely on your local machine. It serves as a unified orchestration interface for developers and builders to run multi-agent workflows.
While Aspenside offers extensive customization and low-level terminal/orchestration control for developers, our visual interface is built for anyone. You can easily connect agents, review file diffs, and inspect workflow traces with clear, user-friendly dashboards.
Aspenside features native integrations with Ollama and other local model frameworks. It allows you to load and execute models (like Llama 3 or DeepSeek R1) entirely offline on your GPU, ensuring zero external network latency or data sharing.
All your code, session database history, and agent credentials stay entirely on your local machine. Aspenside is a local-first application, meaning no telemetry or source code is uploaded to our servers.
Absolutely anything. Aspenside is not a rigid agent framework—it is an autonomous local coding partner. By interacting directly with your environment through simple, powerful actions like file reading, writing, and terminal command execution (bash), the agent can build with any programming language, stack, or tool. Whether you are developing native desktop apps, cross-platform mobile tools, web frontends, or backend APIs, if you can write it or run it in a shell, Aspenside can build it.
Aspenside is free forever for one active project workspace on a single device, with all core orchestration features fully active. To run unlimited concurrent projects or activate Aspenside on up to three active devices, you can upgrade to Aspenside Pro for $9.99/month (or $99/year).
No. Aspenside is built to be local-first. When you purchase Pro, your license is verified and cached locally on your machine. You do not need a persistent internet connection to run Aspenside or orchestrate your agents; everything runs completely offline.
