What Think-Act is

Think-Act is a desktop AI workspace for writing, document processing, screen recording, reusable instructions, and bounded desktop tasks. Its Writing Assistant can rewrite, summarize, translate, adjust tone, shorten, or reorganize text. OCR and document tools extract text and useful information from supported scans, screenshots, images, forms, receipts, invoices, and image-based PDFs. Screen recordings can help prepare procedure drafts, bug reproduction steps, checklists, workflow summaries, and transcripts when narration is present. The Desktop Agent works with supplied context and selected capabilities; supported actions can follow configured ALLOW, ASK, or BLOCK policies, and users can review activity and results. Local Skills preserve repeatable instructions, checks, and output structure. Configured connectors can provide access to supported local or external tools, while writing, OCR, document intelligence, and recording do not require MCP connectors. The Free plan costs nothing and has limited writing usage and free limits for agent, OCR, and recording. Windows is available for 64-bit Windows 10 and 11; macOS is planned for Q1 2027. Workflow context may be sent to configured model endpoints, connectors, or external services.
