Today
You bounce between apps
One AI for research, another for code, another for images. Switching is correct — their strengths really are different. But tabs pile up, and you lose track of where you asked what.
WorkPilot Docs
Every AI you use,
driven from one cockpit.
New AI models keep arriving, and each one is good at something different. So most people switch between them — which is the right call. But the more you switch, the more you re-explain the same context. WorkPilot is a Mac app that lets you work across the AI subscriptions you already pay for.
Concept
The problem WorkPilot solves
Before the details, get these three things. Once they click, every feature makes sense.
With WorkPilot
One window. Swap the AI, not the app
Inside the same conversation you can switch between Claude, ChatGPT, Kimi and Gemini. The conversation and everything it produced stay in one place, so nothing needs hunting down.
Today
You explain the same context every time
Company rules, project background, your writing preferences, decisions already made. Every new conversation — and every switch of AI — starts by typing it all out again.
With WorkPilot
Context is something you keep
Documents and rules become Knowledge; a workflow that went well becomes a Skill. Equip them to a thread and every AI receives the same context.
Today
Getting an AI to understand your code is a chore
Which file does what, how to run it, where things live. Every engineering conversation begins with explaining the codebase all over again.
With WorkPilot
Hand over the whole repository
Register the folder you are working in as Code, and the conversation starts with the structure already read. Running it, reviewing changes and reverting all happen in the same window.
In short: switching AI no longer means starting over.
Context, procedures and codebase understanding live on your side, not inside one AI vendor. That is the idea behind WorkPilot. And what powers it is the AI subscription you already pay for — WorkPilot does not bill you again for AI usage. See how sign-in works
Start here
Three pages to begin with
Install the app, connect one AI, and get your first thread moving. That is the whole onboarding.
1. Install
Install and first-time setup
Installing the DMG, the five-step wizard, and signing in from Terminal.
See the setup steps2. Connect
Connect your AI and services
Claude, ChatGPT and Kimi sign in with your subscription. Gemini, images and audio use API keys.
See all connections3. Run
Threads and the composer
Pick a mode, equip context, send. Plus queueing, stopping, approval and work mode.

Find it by what you want to do
Where you start depends on what you are making and how much you want to delegate.
Ask the AI for something
Choose between the six modes: chat, image, video, article, audio and code.
Make it remember the contextEquip documents, rules and decisions so you never explain them twice.
Reuse a workflowSave what worked as a Skill and call it from any thread, on any engine.
Split the work upPick from 17 roles and let a commander thread divide and run the stages.
Create images, video and audioHow to ask, how credits are consumed, and where the files end up.
Finish a videoArrange scenes in the editor, add captions, subtitles and music, then export.
Work on your codebaseLoad a local repository and handle building, running and reviewing from the app.
Automate the repetitive partsRun to completion, or schedule a loop and get the result by email.
Use it as a teamSync threads, knowledge and code through a shared folder.
Drive it from your phoneSend instructions, check progress and approve actions from a browser.
Concepts
Four words worth learning
The idea above shows up in the app as these four words. Learn them and the UI stops being confusing.
A thread is one piece of work
One thread per job. Split it into chapters when it grows, branch into a child thread when the topic forks. Equipment and history belong to the thread. How threads work
Equipment is what a thread carries
Knowledge, skills, roles, external connections and code. Combine them to reproduce the same quality. Knowledge / Skills
Engines are interchangeable
Choose Claude, ChatGPT, Kimi or Gemini per thread. Video generation is the exception — it runs through Claude. Connecting and switching
Risky actions always stop
Deleting, publishing and anything that costs money can be gated by approval mode. Sharing code runs a secrets scan first. Safety and data
Help
When you're stuck
Not knowing what to do next is easy. Something not working is harder. Start here.
The connection test fails
You signed in but it never turns green. Work through the causes in order.
Terminal confuses meA window full of text appeared. Here is exactly what to do — and what not to worry about.
Video won't generateCheck the engine, the credits, the limits and the mode, in that order.
The AI ignores my instructionsIt forgets context, drifts, or varies in quality. Fix it with equipment and chapters.
I deleted somethingWork out whether the archive, the trash or a backup will bring it back.
I don't know what a word meansThread, equipment, token, API key. Plain-language definitions for the whole UI.
