Marvis
Tencent's AI assistant for PC and phone that searches local files, changes system settings and runs tasks by command.
Marvis is an operating-system-level AI assistant from Tencent for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. Marvis searches and organises local documents and images, analyses and rewrites files, and changes computer settings from a single sentence. Users can pick a cloud-assisted efficiency mode or a local mode that keeps files on the device, and control the PC from a phone.
Best for Chinese-speaking PC users who want an assistant that works directly with the files and settings on their own machine.

What is Marvis?
Marvis is an AI assistant from Tencent that works at the level of the operating system instead of inside a single chat window. Its site, which is in Chinese, presents it as a round-the-clock digital butler for the computer. Marvis reads and indexes local documents and pictures so that you can search by content, by text inside images, or by people, themes, holidays and places, and it groups the results into an AI photo library and document library. It can analyse documents and spreadsheets, polish wording, produce charts and convert formats. A single sentence is enough to look up hardware details or change a system setting. Two operating modes are offered: an efficiency mode that combines the device with the cloud, and a local mode in which an on-device model handles everything and no files are uploaded. A phone can connect to the computer to watch tasks and take over remotely.
