# Athel

> Open source deep research for the desktop. One question becomes a sourced report you can check.

Athel is a desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux. You edit the research questions before the search starts. Athel reads the pages and the PDFs, then writes a Markdown report. Names, dates, and numbers stay attached to the link they came from. The file stays on your computer.

The download is free.
