# RADIQ, inside the AI you already use

RADIQ remembers what you saw on screen and what was said in your meetings and calls, all on your own computer. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT (through Codex), Cursor or Hermes, and that AI can answer from your own work, with no copying and pasting.

**Use the subscription you already have.** RADIQ doesn't replace your AI. It gives your existing Claude or ChatGPT plan memory of your work, through a standard connector called MCP. Your AI does the thinking; RADIQ supplies the context.

## Quick start

1.  **Install RADIQ** on your Mac, sign in, and allow the three permissions it asks for: **microphone**, **Accessibility** (on-screen text) and **Screen Recording**. [Step by step →](https://myradiq.com/docs/get-started)
2.  **Connect your AI.** During setup RADIQ connects the AI apps it finds on your Mac, so usually you only need to quit and reopen them. For Claude Code, or an app you installed later, see [Connect your AI](https://myradiq.com/docs/connect).
3.  **Add the RADIQ skill** (recommended), so your AI knows the best way to use RADIQ. [Get the skill →](https://myradiq.com/docs/skill)
4.  **Ask something about your own work.** Give RADIQ a little time to capture first, then try:
    
    > What was I working on in the last hour?

## What RADIQ adds to your AI

| Your AI alone | Your AI with RADIQ |
| --- | --- |
| Knows only what you paste into the chat | Can look up what you saw, read and typed across every app |
| Forgets your meetings | Has the transcript, who spoke, and what was agreed |
| Starts every conversation from zero | Can save and recall memories you choose to keep |
| Answers only when you ask | Can set up automations that run on a schedule, even with the chat closed |

## Where your data lives

-   Recordings, screen text, transcripts and memories are stored **on your computer**, in RADIQ's local database.
-   Your AI app only sees the results it asks RADIQ for, one question at a time, and those results go to that AI provider like anything else you type into it.
-   You can pause recording at any time from the RADIQ menu bar icon, and disconnect any AI app from **Connections → AI tools**.
