Secrets stay local Zero-Knowledge sync Ollama = no data leaves Made in Germany

Your passwords and SSH keys never leave your device in plain text – they live in the macOS keychain. The AI only gets redacted context. With local Ollama: zero data leaves.

One terminal. One AI assistant. Your entire server fleet.

Work faster without giving up control – all in a native Mac app.

AI assistant

Ask in plain language – the assistant knows your terminal context.

  • Have commands explained – with a risk indicator
  • Analyze errors & get step-by-step help
  • Suggest a command – automatically, with a stoppable countdown
  • Use your own key or local Ollama, your choice

Fleet – multi-host

One command across many servers at once – with a live result matrix.

  • Parallel or sequential, stopping on error
  • Roll out SSH keys to many hosts
  • Upload files in parallel
  • Per-host results in real time

Tunnels, bastion & sync

Secure connections, automatically – and your access encrypted and synced.

  • Port forwarding, starts automatically in the background
  • Bastion / jump-host chains
  • Session recording & replay
  • Zero-Knowledge sync to your own destination

Frequently asked questions

Do my passwords and SSH keys really stay safe?

Yes. They are stored exclusively in the macOS keychain (safeStorage/Secure Enclave) and never leave your device in plain text. The AI, too, only gets redacted context, no raw credentials.

What does abalso AI ssh cost?

The SSH client incl. sync is free forever. Pro (AI with your own keys, Fleet, Audit): €9.99/month or €99.99/year. Plus (additionally abalso AI with 1M tokens/month): €14.99/month or €179.88/year — 7-day free trial without payment details.

Can I use my own AI key (BYOK)?

Yes — from Pro you use your own keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek and more) or local Ollama. The abalso AI without your own key is part of Plus.

Does the AI see my terminal contents?

Only a redacted excerpt that's needed for the answer – and only if you use the cloud AI. With local Ollama, nothing leaves your device at all (zero egress).

Which platforms are supported?

macOS and Windows (direct download with auto-update). Linux and the mobile app are in the works.

How does sync work?

Zero-Knowledge: your profiles are encrypted client-side and synced to your own destination (SFTP, WebDAV or a local folder). The key stays with you – we have no access to your data.
