# Jix

> Native macOS panel that drafts answers from your own documents during permitted customer calls, with cited passages you can check. Developed by DevX Group LLC. Status: available for Apple Silicon Macs; plans and checkout at https://jix.devxgroup.io/#pricing.

## Overview
Jix is a small macOS panel for consultants and sales engineers. It transcribes call audio on the Mac, searches the documents you imported, and drafts an answer with cited passages when available. A quote is evidence to inspect, not a guarantee that the answer is correct.

## How it works
- **Transcription on the Mac:** English uses NVIDIA Parakeet (optional download of about 600 MB). Other supported languages use Apple on-device Speech. Call audio is not uploaded.
- **Local document search:** PDF, text, Markdown, RTF, DOCX and images are indexed on the Mac with SQLite FTS5 keyword search plus on-device embeddings.
- **Telling people:** Tell everyone that you are using Jix, and obtain any consent or permission required by applicable law, your workplace or school, or the meeting's rules. Jix can show a reminder when listening starts; obtaining any required consent is your responsibility. Pause Jix if anyone objects or someone joins who has not been told. Do not use Jix for exams, interviews or other evaluations where outside help is not allowed.
- **Screen sharing:** Jix can appear in a full-screen share or recording. Tell the people on the call that you are using Jix. We make no claim that Jix is hidden from any screen-sharing or recording app. Command Shift J shows or hides the panel.
- **Answer engines:** your own ChatGPT account through OpenAI's Codex sign-in (bundled Codex component), your own Claude account through Anthropic's Claude Code (bundled), Gemini through your own free Google AI Studio API key, or a local model through Ollama. AI usage is billed by that provider, not by Jix.
- **Provider limits and backups:** For eligible quota or temporary failures, Jix normally tries configured backups after your selected provider. ChatGPT Fast falls back to Standard first. Backups then run in order: connected ChatGPT through Codex, Claude subscription through Claude Code, a configured Gemini API key, and your selected Ollama model if installed and running. Settings controls automatic backups. A cloud backup can receive the same question, selected excerpts, and attached images. Temporarily limited providers may be tried later while another ready provider answers. If no backup is ready, the answer can stop; select or reconnect a provider to continue. An Ollama primary never switches to cloud.
- **Data path:** cloud answers send selected questions, transcript excerpts, document passages and screen images to your AI provider. Local Ollama keeps answer processing on your Mac. License checks go through the DevX Group LLC license server at jix.devxgroup.io, which checks the key with Lemon Squeezy and stores nothing.
- **Offline use:** Partly. Listening, transcription and document search run on your Mac. Answers come from the AI you connect: with a local Ollama model, Jix can answer with no internet connection. ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini need a connection. The English speech model is a one-time download. A paid plan checks its license online at least once every 24 hours and after your Mac restarts.

## Jix Counter Kit (for stores and front desks)
- A quoted package for stores and front desks whose new staff do not know the products yet, for example a watch store, an electronics shop or a clinic front desk.
- Includes a Jix license, a teleprompter screen (a glass teleprompter with its own display), and setup by DevX Group LLC: we install Jix, load the store's own price lists, product sheets and policies into its library, and walk the staff through it.
- Jix works on a teleprompter or any second screen. It runs on an Apple Silicon Mac at the counter.
