Before you start

Apple Silicon M-series Mac only, macOS 13+, Simplified Chinese. Requires a ChatGPT subscription with Codex access and a working executable at /opt/homebrew/bin/codex (the Codex desktop app alone is insufficient; configure other paths according to the official guide). Sign in to ChatGPT separately inside Finwisp settings; this is independent of personal Codex sign-in. Requires network and built-in microphone/speakers. Node/Python are bundled. Voice/model permissions and quotas depend on the account.

What it can help with

  • Continuous voice or text questions and page navigation
  • Market quotes and news with sources and timestamps
  • Save research; import, read and cite PDF, TXT and MD documents
  • Report search and archiving of obtainable documents
  • Strategy backtests and conversation results
  • Watchlists, holding records and manageable preference memory

How to get started

Read the official README and Preview release, check system, subscription and Codex executable and independent Finwisp settings sign-in requirements, then obtain the mac-arm64 installer from the official release. Preview is unsigned and not notarized, with no automatic updates. Follow official installation guidance; do not automatically run it or bypass system security checks.
