Most marketing AI tools live in a browser tab and forget your files the moment you close the chat.

**aiFetchly** is an open-source, local-first **desktop AI agent** (Windows, macOS, Linux) built for business research, document-grounded drafting, lead organization, and scheduled outreach — with permission-gated tools you can review.

Keeping a business Knowledge Library and task history on the desktop makes recurring ops work reviewable: you see which tools ran, what was drafted, and what still needs human approval before anything is sent.

Feedback from folks building local agents for non-coding workflows is very welcome.
