System requirements

ItemRequirement
MacmacOS 13.5 (Ventura) or later. Apple silicon and Intel are both supported by one universal installer.
WindowsWindows 10 (64-bit) or Windows 11. There is one installer for x64 and one for ARM64. ARM64 is for Windows 11 on ARM computers.
DiskAbout 1.6 GB on Mac and 1.0 GB on Windows once installed. Keep at least 2 GB free, or 5 GB or more if you have a lot of files.
Memory8 GB or more recommended.
InternetNot needed to work with the data on your computer. Needed for a provider's AI models, sending and receiving email, and update checks. With a local model you installed yourself, AI requests are not sent to a model provider.

Opening it the first time

The installers are not code-signed yet, and the Mac app is not yet notarized by Apple. So the first time you open RelaySolo, the system stops it once. Allow it once:

Windows

The blue "Windows protected your PC" screen appears, and the publisher shows as "Unknown publisher". Click "More info", then "Run anyway".

Mac

You see "'RelaySolo' Not Opened": Apple could not verify that it is free of malware. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, click "Open Anyway" near the bottom, then confirm and enter your login password.

To check that the file was not changed, compare its SHA-256 with the one above. On Windows, run Get-FileHash filename in PowerShell. On Mac, run shasum -a 256 filename in Terminal.

First steps after installing

  1. Create a website account and download from it. Sign up with your email and a password, then enter the 6-digit code from the email we send. The website account is only for downloading installers and for applying for and viewing licenses.
  2. Connect your mailbox. Gmail, Microsoft 365 and any mailbox that supports standard IMAP / SMTP. New mail comes down to your computer, and buyer emails are translated into your language. See the translated inbox.
  3. Add your AI key. Pick a provider you trust; requests go straight from your computer. You can also connect a local model you installed yourself (Ollama, llama.cpp). See AI models and keys.
  4. Add your files. Catalogs, price lists, certificates, contract templates. AI answers point to the file and page they used. See your files.
  5. Set up a backup. There is no cloud copy, so a backup is what protects you if the computer fails. Backups include your original files by default; keep a copy on an external drive too. See how backup works.
  6. Get to work. Turn inquiries into cards and draft quotes from your price list (inquiry to quote), and follow up from your morning briefing (client pages and follow-ups).
  7. Apply for a license before the trial ends. Your first company gets a free 30-day trial. Before it ends, apply for a license and paste the key into the app under Settings → License. Without a key, you can still view, export and back up your data. You just can't ask the AI or send and receive email.
