Give your product work a home outside the browser. The Aha! desktop app for Mac and Windows opens straight to Elle, the AI assistant, with your notifications, meetings, to-dos, records, and documents in a sidebar beside it. Ask a question, check what changed, and act on it without hunting through browser tabs.

Overview
The desktop app gives you the My work page you already use in your browser, in a focused window of its own. It uses your existing Aha! account and data, so any change you make in the app is the same change your team sees in Aha! software.
Here is what is different from the browser:
Elle first: The app opens to Elle. Start a new chat, choose an agent, or return to a recent conversation from the sidebar.
A compact header: A slim header with the Toggle sidebar and Search icons takes the place of the workspace navigation. Hide the sidebar when you want more room for a chat, record, or document.
Your work in the sidebar: Notifications, Meetings, To-dos, Records, and Documents sit below your Elle chats. Records open in a drawer, and your personal notes and whiteboards open right in the app.
Account controls at the bottom: Your profile picture and the Help icon sit at the bottom of the sidebar.
When you select a link to a page outside My work, such as a roadmap, a workspace board, or your settings, it opens in your default browser.
