Violet UI: the Windows agent with a purple command deck
Violet is a voice-controlled Windows agent that opens applications, drives a real Chrome window, and works through computer tasks step by step.
Field notes
Violet is presented as a Windows 10/11 agent that responds to its name, launches requested applications, and operates a real Chrome window rather than stopping at conversational answers. The homepage says it exposes its activity through a purple command deck and asks for approval before money, code, deletion, or installation actions. Version 2.2 is listed alongside a claim of weekly builds. Access is priced at $4.99 per month and uses a bring-your-own-API-key arrangement.
