Navisual
The AI guides, never overrides.
Ask a chatbot how to do something — and you're still hunting for the button it means. Let an AI agent do it for you — and you give up control of your computer. Navisual does neither: it points you to the exact button, step by step, and you stay in control.
Download for Windows 50 free requests · No sign-up · Signed installerOn first launch, Windows may show “Windows protected your PC.” That’s SmartScreen being cautious with new apps — it’s based on download count, not safety, and appears even for signed apps. Click More info → Run anyway. Navisual is code-signed and source-available, so you can verify it yourself.

Navisual uses AI, which can make mistakes — always verify each suggested action before performing it.
Works for any task, in any app
Office & productivity
"Add a pivot table to this spreadsheet."
Walks you through Insert → PivotTable, field setup, and formatting step by step in Excel or Google Sheets.
Learning new software
"Where is the layer mask tool in Photoshop?"
Points at the right panel and narrates the shortcut — learn by doing, not by reading a manual.
Everyday computer help
"Help me set up my email account."
Guides through account wizards, settings pages, and unfamiliar dialogs — great for helping family with a new PC.
How it works
Type what you want to do — or say it out loud with push-to-talk.
Navisual takes a quick look at your active window, asks the AI for the next step, and points at the exact button to click.
Follow the pointer and audio narration. Press Ctrl+` when done to advance to the next step.
Works with your preferred AI
50 free requests included. Bring your own key for unlimited use — or run fully offline with Ollama.
Privacy
Only the active window is sent to the AI — not your full desktop. Screenshots are held in memory only and never written to disk. Element coordinates are matched locally (Windows UI Automation + built-in OCR), so your screen layout never leaves your machine.
Choose where the screenshot goes: the free managed tier, your own API key (Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Qwen), or stay fully offline with Ollama. Full details in the README privacy section.
Frequently asked
Does the AI control my mouse?
No. Navisual only points at where to click and narrates the next step. Every click, keystroke, and confirmation is yours.
What data leaves my machine?
A screenshot of your active window (not the full desktop) plus your conversation text, sent to whichever AI provider you choose. Element matching runs locally.
Can it run fully offline?
Yes. Choose Ollama as your provider and pull a vision model (e.g. llama3.2-vision). Nothing leaves your machine.
Which Windows versions are supported?
Windows 10 (1809 or later) and Windows 11. WebView2 is required — it ships with Windows 11 and installs automatically on Windows 10.
Is it open source?
Source-available under FSL-1.1-Apache-2.0. Each version converts to Apache 2.0 two years after release.
Windows says “Windows protected your PC” — is it safe?
Yes. That’s Microsoft SmartScreen, which warns on any newly-released app until it has been downloaded enough to build reputation — it’s about download volume, not safety, and it appears even for properly code-signed apps. Navisual’s installer is code-signed (Azure Trusted Signing) and fully source-available (FSL). To continue, click More info, then Run anyway. The warning disappears as more people install.
What happens after the free 50 requests?
Bring your own API key (Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Qwen) or run locally with Ollama for unlimited free use. A paid managed tier is coming soon.
macOS or Linux?
Windows only for now. macOS and Linux ports are planned after the 1.0 public launch.
支持中文 / DeepSeek / Qwen 吗？
