Promised something in a chat? It won't let it slip.

What you promise in a chat waits in the bubble. It only goes into your day if you want it to.

Can you check the quote with the supplier?

I'll check this afternoon and let you know!

BERTUNINO · A BRAZILIAN MODEL

BERTunino lives on your computer. What you write stays there.

BERTunino comes from Brazil: a small model we trained on the way people really write, with “tmrw”, “u” and half-finished sentences. It sorts out what you dump and reads the radar's chats right here on your PC, even offline.

Works with the Wi-Fi off. Don't believe it? Turn it off and dump.
Light: it wakes up when you dump or send a message, and goes back to sleep after 3 idle minutes.
Your voice stays here too: what you say becomes text on your PC.

The internet is only for Google Calendar, if you connect it. What goes where →

Made in Brazil, fine-tuned from BERTimbau, the open model by NeuralMind and Unicamp.

BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD

Quick questions.

Is it really free?

Yes. No account, no card. In return, I love getting feedback.

How does it understand what I write?

With BERTunino, our own model, made in Brazil, which runs on your computer, offline (see above). It suggests; you decide.

Where does my data go?

It stays on your computer: tasks, accounts, what you dump, your voice and the radar's chats. Only Google Calendar is read over the internet, if you connect it. The radar and the distraction warning come on, and you can turn them off. Anonymous usage counts, numbers only, come on, and you can turn them off. Privacy policy.

Why not a regular to-do list?

A regular list only grows until it becomes a graveyard. Here the day has 6 at most, the pet shows how many are left without you opening anything, and what you promise in chats comes to you on its own, for you to decide.

Windows showed a blue screen. Is it a virus?

No. It's SmartScreen: the app is new and doesn't have a paid digital signature yet. Click More info → Run anyway.

How do I install it on Linux?

Download the AppImage and run chmod +x saturnino.AppImage && ./saturnino.AppImage. On Ubuntu 22.04+, install libfuse2 first. It updates itself, just like on Windows.

Do I need to set anything up?

No. No account, no keys. Connecting a calendar is optional: Google Calendar, read-only, or an iCal link.
