Enaga
Ask your documents,
without sending them out.
Enaga is a knowledge AI that runs fully on your computer. Drop in your PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files and it answers with sources. The contents of your documents and your chats are never sent out.
How did our Q3 churn rate change?
Churn improved 1.2 points from the prior quarter, mainly thanks to the onboarding redesign.
PRIVACY
What's in your documents never leaves.
The contents of your files and your conversations are never sent out. The only network traffic is license checks, update checks, and AI engine and model downloads — and none of these send your documents or chats.
Your documents are sent over the internet to an outside server and processed there. Convenient — but your confidential and customer data leaves your company.
Your documents and the AI stay entirely inside your PC. Nothing goes out to the internet, so confidential and customer data stays safe.
Your document contents stay in
Your files are never uploaded to the cloud or used for training. They always stay on your device.
Offline-ready after setup
After the first-run setup (fetching the AI engine and models), it works in airplane mode and offline environments.
No cloud sync
No account and no sync required. Your data is always in your own hands.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does it really work offline?
Yes — once the first-run setup (downloading the AI engine and models) is done, Enaga works without an internet connection, including airplane mode and offline environments. Note: internet is needed for the first-run setup and after updates that change the AI model, to fetch the AI engine and models, and to verify your license.
Is my data safe? Does it stay private?
Your imported files and conversations are processed entirely on your device and never sent out. The only external connections are license checks, update checks, and AI engine and model downloads — none of which send your files or conversations.
Is there a limit on how many files I can import?
Free imports one folder with up to 100 files, counting files inside subfolders. Only supported formats count; unsupported ones do not, but images count even on PCs where the AI cannot read them. The 100 files are chosen by character-code order of the path including subfolder names (uppercase first, “10” before “2”). Adding a file that sorts earlier automatically pushes the last file over the limit. Files over the limit are shown as “Over Free limit” in the app’s file list. Standard has no limit and imports as much as your PC can hold; the first import takes longer with many files.
Can it create meeting minutes from audio? Which formats?
Yes — as a Standard feature. Drop in a meeting recording and Enaga transcribes it and writes up the key points, decisions and to-dos. Transcription and summarization all run on your device; the audio is never sent out. Supported formats are WAV, MP3, M4A (e.g. iPhone Voice Memos), FLAC and OGG. How accurately speech is transcribed depends on the recording quality and your computer's performance.
Can I get a refund?
As a digital product, we don't offer refunds after purchase as a rule. Please try the free version first to confirm it works for you. If a serious defect attributable to us prevents use, we'll address it individually. See our Legal Notice (Tokushoho) for details.
Which OS? How many devices?
macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later is currently supported. On Mac, both Apple Silicon and Intel are supported, with Apple Silicon recommended going forward. Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit) is also supported. One license can be used on up to 3 devices.
What are the recommended specs?
The AI runs directly on your PC, so performance depends mainly on memory. Enaga automatically picks the best AI model for your machine during first-time setup.
- Memory (RAM): 8GB minimum / 16GB or more recommended. With 32GB or more, the high-quality model (optional download, ~17GB) also runs comfortably.
- Free disk space: 5GB minimum / 20GB or more recommended (includes the AI engine and models).
- OS: macOS 11 or later (Windows 10・11 64-bit version in preparation).
Is it a subscription?
No. It's a one-time ¥7,980 (tax incl.) purchase. No monthly fees or extra charges, and free updates throughout v1.x.
Can it search the web?
No. Since v0.3.6, Enaga does not search the web or read pages from URLs; it answers only from the documents on your computer. If you need up-to-date information, paste the text of a page you have checked, or attach a saved document.
Is there support?
We don't offer phone support. Questions are handled by email (info@alivedesign.jp); individual support scope and response times are limited. You can try the free version first to confirm it works. If a serious defect attributable to us prevents use, we'll address it individually.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
System requirements

Larger models run more comfortably with 16 GB / 32 GB or more. If you're unsure, try the free version first to check your environment.
