AYO
AI that explains errors

Is there an AI that explains error messages on my screen?

Short answer

Yes. With AYO, a desktop AI for Windows, you say "AYO, what does this error mean?" or press Alt+Shift+S and type it, and AYO reads the error on your screen and explains it in plain words. There is no copy-pasting: it works in any app, including code editors, terminals, game launchers, and Windows dialogs.

No copy-paste, any app

Chat apps need you to copy the error into a box. AYO looks at the screen when the question needs it, so it can read errors in apps that do not let you select text. Drag a box around just the stack trace with Crop, or hover over one line while AYO is listening.

Quiet enough for the office

Silent Ask (Alt+Shift+S) lets you type the question, and the answer waits in a small card in the corner while you keep your editor open.

Try saying

  • “AYO, what does this error mean?”

    Reads the error on screen and explains it in plain words.

  • “What is wrong with this line? (hovering over it)”

    Answers about that line only.

What to know first

  • AYO uses cloud AI models and can be wrong; check a fix before you run it.
  • Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) only. There is no Mac, Linux, or phone version yet.
  • AYO needs an internet connection to answer. Only the wake word is detected offline, on your PC.

More questions

Does AYO send my whole codebase anywhere?
No. Only the picture a question needs goes to the vision model, and the app does not save it. The model vendors see the question you sent, not a copy of your disk.
