FAQ from ailight
What is ailight?
ailight is an AI command bar that lives natively on your desktop — transforming text, screenshots, and clipboard content in real time, directly within your workflow. No copy-pasting into chat windows. No context switching. Just intelligent, instant action — powered by AI you control or we optimize.
How do I use ailight?
Trigger with a global hotkey, select or capture content, then type natural commands (?what does this mean?) or slash actions (/table, /tone-professional). Save your most-used prompts as reusable custom actions — and deploy them anywhere: Gmail, Notion, Terminal, Figma, or even system dialogs.
What’s included in the Free plan?
Free users get 10 AI-powered transformations per day, full access to custom action creation and local execution, seamless sync across devices, and support for bringing your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Ollama keys — zero setup required.
Which AI models power the Ultimate plan?
Ultimate subscribers gain priority access to state-of-the-art models — including GPT-4.1, Claude 4 Sonnet, and Llama 3.1 70B — automatically routed based on task complexity and cost efficiency. All managed securely behind the scenes — no keys, no config, no guesswork.
How does “unlimited usage” actually work?
“Unlimited” means no hard caps — ever. The first 500,000 tokens/month (≈375K words) run on premium models. Beyond that, intelligent fallback ensures continuity using high-fidelity, low-latency alternatives — never throttled, never blocked, always responsive.
What makes the Ultimate subscription worth it?
For $4.99/month (with 7-day free trial), Ultimate unlocks unlimited transformations, best-in-class model routing, priority support, encrypted cross-device sync, advanced image understanding, and early access to experimental features like multi-step action chaining and team action libraries.
