AlliHat

AlliHat brings several AI services into Safari's sidebar. Its public site says the assistant can work with the current webpage or selected text, as well as images, PDFs, and YouTube transcripts.

Users can choose Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, OpenRouter Auto, or Apple's on-device model. AlliHat also advertises saved workflows, conversation history, and memory. We did not install the extension or test those features.

Agent Mode is meant to move beyond answering questions. AlliHat says it can click page elements, fill forms, scroll, and navigate.

That could help with repetitive browser work, but it also gives the extension meaningful control over the page. Anyone considering Agent Mode should review its permissions before using it around sensitive accounts or information.

AlliHat costs $29.99 per year after a 7-day trial and requires macOS 14 or later. Setup includes installing the extension from the Mac App Store and connecting OpenRouter, a supported provider API key, or Apple's on-device AI.

Cloud providers may charge separately for model usage. The annual AlliHat subscription does not replace those provider costs.

AlliHat's privacy page says provider keys remain in Safari's local extension storage and that page content goes directly to the selected provider or OpenRouter. It says requests to Apple's model stay on the device. The same page says the extension has no analytics, while the marketing site uses Clicky.

This first look covered the public homepage and privacy page. We did not sign in, connect a key, analyze a page, run Agent Mode, or independently confirm key storage, provider routing, local processing, or analytics behavior.
