How it works

Your agent spends. You stay in charge. agent → MCP → QOI → your Mac

  1. Agent asks. Your agent hits a paywalled API and requests payment over MCP.
  2. QOI evaluates. Policy checks and a live risk score, decided in milliseconds.
  3. You approve. One click in the macOS app. Not a cent moves without you.
Fully non-custodial. Funds move straight from your wallet to the counterparty. QOI never holds, routes or touches your money. We're the governance layer: policy, risk assessment and approvals.

You approve payments

When an agent wants to pay for something, the request shows up in the app and waits for you.

Live activity feed

Watch requests and transactions as they happen, and check spending over time.

Your keys, your device

Keys and history are stored locally on your device, not on our servers.

FAQ

macOS says the app can't be verified. What do I do?
This can happen with alpha builds. Right-click the app in Applications, choose Open, then confirm. You only need to do this once. If macOS says the app is "damaged", the download was probably corrupted, so delete the .dmg and download it again.
Is Qoi Guard free during the alpha?
Yes. The macOS alpha is free.
How do updates work?
Download the newest .dmg from the releases page and drag it over your existing copy.
What data does Qoi Guard collect?
Your keys and history stay on your device. The app only talks to services you connect yourself. Each release page lists what changed in that build.
