General Questions

xSquads gives every knowledge worker their own xSquad: a personal squad of AI teammates that work on your own files. You review the work before anything is sent.
What is an xSquad?

How It Works
Do I need Slack or Git?
No. xSquads is a desktop app. You point a mission at a folder on your computer. Slack and Git are not required.
Where do my files live?
The app runs on your machine. Your files and folders are read and edited in place. We do not copy your folders to an xSquads server.
When a bot works on a task, the prompt and the file content it needs for that task are sent to the AI engine handling it. The security page has the full account of what stays on your computer and what leaves it.
Does a squad send work on its own?
No. You review the work before anything is sent. Nothing is treated as final until you approve it.
