## Start with Finch

People new to AI agents are already using Finch to build games, run e-commerce sites, organize personal knowledge, and create picture books for their children—and they’ve shared great feedback along the way.

Whether you’re bringing an idea to life or looking for an everyday assistant, the choice is yours.

## Small and powerful

Finch focuses on the essentials: loops, interaction, and memory. Powerful coding capabilities and flexible mini tools handle the rest.

We believe less is more.

No concept bloat—just a lightweight, fast experience.

## AI for your ideas

AI should get simpler as the technology gets better. You shouldn’t need jargon, expert guidance, or elaborate prompts just to make it useful.

With Finch, you work in natural language and stay focused on the ideas that matter.

Inspiration belongs in the world around you—not buried in technical detail.

### Local AI knowledge

Your [knowledge](/en/docs/spaces) should do more than sit there.

Finch finds connections, surfaces insights, and helps you act—growing into a second brain that knows your context.

### Simple, efficient coding

You don’t need to know code to make something useful.

Bring the idea; Finch helps you build it. Make the workspace your own with [a theme](/en/docs/themes) that matches your mood.

![Community mini tools interface preview](/assets/shots/minitools.webp)

### Community mini tools

Let code handle the predictable and AI explore the unknown.

[Mini tools](/en/docs/minitools) give each a clear role—so you waste fewer tokens, find useful tools, and [share your own](/en/docs/minitools-publishing) with the community.

![AI model choices interface preview](/assets/shots/model.webp)

### AI model choices

Choose from leading [models](/en/docs/models) including Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (ChatGPT), DeepSeek, Kimi For Coding, and MiniMax. Already paying for Claude or ChatGPT? Log in with that subscription directly—no separate API key required.

Connect local models too when privacy matters.

## Why a little finch?

Finch should feel like a small bird at your side: light, quiet, and surprisingly capable. There when you need it, out of the way when you don’t. It makes powerful AI feel natural, even if you have no technical background. The complexity stays behind the scenes, so you can focus on what you want to make.

The best tools disappear, leaving you free to create.

## User voices

-   > What matters most to me isn't how well an agent can work, but who it works for. Finch feels like it works for me—not the other way around.
    > 
    > Arthur · Indie developer
    
-   > As an early user, my first impression was that Finch felt full of life. It asked me what to call it, and I chose 'Que Zai.' Our everyday interactions have been a lot of fun. The experience feels natural, capable, and effortless—no wonder the community is so active. It feels like an early product that is really gaining momentum.
    > 
    > 阿川 · 鹅同学创始人
    
-   > As a journalism and communication student, I often have lots of scattered thoughts. After chatting in an AI dialog, I still had to copy, paste, and organize everything into a document myself. Finch helps turn the ideas in my head into something real, without constantly switching between apps. More than a tool, Finch feels like a companion.
    > 
    > Zoey · Sophomore student
    
-   > Finch Agent feels like a humanities thinker with a STEM core: it gets straight to work and quietly gets things done. It tackles real user pain points, and I also love its interaction design—simple, intuitive, and efficient.
    > 
    > Mini Qiu · Lawyer
    
-   > As a seed user, opening Finch feels like welcoming a new colleague aboard. It feels warm from the start, and we get to introduce ourselves to each other. Over time, it has become my partner—sometimes with a little attitude, but always with its own personality and taste in how it gets things done.

    > JenniFer · Product manager
    
-   > Honestly, I barely have to think about it. I just tell it, 'Build a Brave Search mini tool and figure it out yourself.' It's really useful.
