About Aera

Aera — Your private, on-device AI writing assistant Works without Wi-Fi. Once Aera's AI model is downloaded, it runs entirely on your device with no internet connection needed. Whether you're on a plane, in a rural area, or anywhere with a spotty signal, Aera keeps working. Aera helps you write, rewrite, and polish your words — right inside Chrome's side panel. Whether you're untangling messy thoughts, leveling up a rough draft, adding flair, or building a five-paragraph essay or short story, Aera gives you a calm, focused space to get it done. Private by design. Aera runs a small AI language model entirely on your own device. Your writing never leaves your computer — there are no servers, no accounts, and no tracking. What you write stays with you. What Aera can do: • Unscramble messy notes into clear writing • Pro-Mode: sharpen and professionalize your text • Spice it Up: add energy and style • Build a 5-paragraph persuasive essay • Write a short story from your idea • Save and organize notes with auto-save • Read responses aloud Built for focus and accessibility. Aera uses a sensory-safe design — high contrast, no jarring animations, reduce-motion support, and the highly legible Atkinson Hyperlegible typeface. Powered by Nudge Nest Collective. Note: Aera uses a compact on-device AI model. Responses are generated locally and may occasionally contain mistakes — please review important text before relying on it.
