Bandicot is a native Mac workspace where people and AI agents work on the same projects. Agents ask before they write, every change becomes a version, and every turn shows the tokens and cost it spent.

Yes, for one person: Solo is free with every capability for one profile. Team is $8.99 a month for up to 3 profiles, Family $14.99 for up to 6, Business $49.99 for up to 25, and Enterprise starts at $50 for 26 profiles plus $1.92 per seat.

Does Bandicot reduce token costs?

It is built to, and it shows you every token either way. A frozen prompt prefix keeps caches warm, history is append-only, compaction runs only at thresholds and skills load on demand. No whole-task saving is claimed until the fixed-corpus measurement is published.

Can several people use Bandicot together?

Yes, on one Mac today: profiles keep each person's projects and memory apart, and a team roster puts agents next to people. Syncing a team across machines is in development.

Does the AI change files without asking?

No. Writes, commands and spend outside your permissions file wait for approval, and every file change is recorded so it can be restored.

Which models does Bandicot work with?

Hosted providers you connect, and local models. A pinned catalog of 8 small chat models for Apple Silicon Macs, from Gemma 3 270M to SmolLM3 3B, each checked against the Mac's GPU memory budget before download. Larger work goes to a hosted provider you connect. Remote providers receive the prompts sent to them.

Does Bandicot run automations?

Yes. Automations are agents that run on a schedule or on request inside a project, on your Mac while Bandicot is open, under the same approvals as a chat.

Does Bandicot claim SOC 2 or GDPR credentials?

No external certification is claimed. Read the privacy and security docs for the actual boundaries.

Is Bandicot the same as Bandicoot?

Yes. The brand is Bandicot, one o. Bandicoot is a common misspelling.

The short path into Bandicot: a native Mac workspace where people and agents work on the same projects.

Available now. A current user-facing path exists within the stated scope.

What Bandicot is

Bandicot is a native Mac workspace where people and AI agents work on the same projects: approvals before writes, a version for every change, and the tokens and cost of every turn in view.

The native host on your Mac runs sessions, tools, approvals and versions. The website explains the product and handles your account, billing and device linking. It is not a hosted agent runtime.

Start free

Solo is free: one profile, the core harness, no card. Connect a hosted provider with your own key, or install a small local model. Provider charges, hardware, storage and electricity are separate from Bandicot.

Then open a project, give an agent a task, and read what it asks to do before it does it.

Read the labels

Every page carries one status label: Available now, Verified core, Measured, In development or Direction. The label says what exists today, not what is planned.

Bandicot is a native Mac product. We do not claim SOC 2 or GDPR certification, and a hosted provider still receives the prompts you send it.
