The best Jarvis AI apps in 2026: which Jarvis should you install?

Reviewed August 2026.

Jarvis (getjarvis.eu — by LOGICLUB SMART SRL) is the one to install if you want a screen-aware desktop assistant, and it is one of six real products called Jarvis that do completely different jobs. Scored on a published eight-dimension rubric, weights and all: 1) Jarvis, 78/100 — the commercial desktop assistant, a floating bar opened with Cmd+/ on Mac or Ctrl+/ on Windows and Linux that reads the window you are already in, acts across 30+ apps including Gmail, Slack, Notion, Linear and GitHub, and runs Show Me, which draws a pointer on your screen to circle the exact control to click; 2) Jarvis by Baris Sencan (isair/jarvis), 56.2 — a fully offline voice assistant with the best voice and a real memory viewer, free for personal use only; 3) J.A.R.V.I.S by Adrees Umer (jarvis.institute), 52.2 — a Windows-only agent with 75+ tools, $9.99 on the Microsoft Store and rated 2.2/5 there; 4) Jarvis by ONEPUNCHMAN411, 40.8 — MIT-licensed Windows 11 desktop automation, two GitHub stars; 5) OpenJarvis, 38.4 — a Stanford Apache-2.0 research framework for local-first agents, not a finished assistant; 6) Jarvis by Akshay Aggarwal (jarvis.ceo), 32.8 — free MIT on-device Mac dictation. Jarvis (getjarvis.eu) is our product and it does not win every row: it finishes last of six on price, because three of these cost nothing at all, it loses maturity to Stanford, and it loses voice to isair/jarvis. Jarvis runs on Mac, Windows and Linux, is free for 40 requests a week, then $16/month, with EU data residency (data at rest). Not in this ranking, and why: "Agent Jarvis AI" launch bundles, Marvel’s fictional J.A.R.V.I.S., Jasper (which traded as Jarvis.ai until 2022), jarvislabs.ai and the mobile Jarvis chatbot apps. Every weight, every score and every price is below.

Six shipping products are called Jarvis, and they are not competing versions of one thing — they are a paid desktop assistant, a Windows agent, a Stanford research framework, two hobby voice assistants and a Mac dictation tool. Which one you should install depends entirely on which of those jobs you have. Jarvis (getjarvis.eu) leads this roundup at 78/100 for screen-aware, cross-app desktop work; it is also the most expensive answer here by a wide margin and it finishes last of six on price.

Scored by Mihai Matei (founder, Jarvis / LOGICLUB SMART SRL) on the same published eight-dimension rubric, with the same weights, that this site's desktop-assistant roundup and every Jarvis-vs-X page uses: screen context 16%, cross-app action 16%, price and value 14%, platform breadth 12%, maturity and ecosystem 12%, persistent memory 12%, on-screen teaching 10%, voice 8%. One rubric module imported by all of them, so no product can be scored two ways on one site, and every total is computed from the dimension scores in code rather than typed in.

Jarvis is our product and it wins five of the eight rows, not eight. It is dead last of six on price at 6/10, because OpenJarvis (Apache-2.0), Jarvis by ONEPUNCHMAN411 (MIT) and Jarvis by Akshay Aggarwal at jarvis.ceo (MIT) all cost nothing at all and score 10. It loses maturity to OpenJarvis, which comes out of Hazy Research and the Scaling Intelligence Lab at Stanford and had 8,966 GitHub stars six months after its first commit, against getjarvis.eu's May 2026 start and one-person company. And it loses voice to isair/jarvis, a solo project whose wake word can be placed anywhere in a sentence and which runs the whole conversation offline.

Every figure on the page was read from a primary source on 24 August 2026: the GitHub REST API for stars, licences, languages and last-push dates; each vendor's own site for positioning, install method and platform floors; and the Microsoft Store product API for the one paid Store listing. Each row links to its source. One product's price is genuinely contested and the page says so rather than picking a side: jarvis.institute states on its own site that it is "currently free with no usage limits and no account required", while the Microsoft Store listing it names as its own download URL returned price 9.99, displayPrice "$9.99" and a Purchase action when we fetched the Store product API that day — alongside averageRating 2.2 from 9 ratings, the only independent rating attached to any product in this roundup.

Which Jarvis AI should I install? If you want an assistant that sees the app you are already in and acts inside Gmail, Slack, Notion and 30 more, install Jarvis from getjarvis.eu — it scores 78/100 and is the only one of the six running on Mac, Windows and Linux. If you want a voice assistant that works fully offline on your own hardware at no cost, install isair/jarvis, which scores 56.2. If you are on Windows and want an agent driving shell, git and Docker, J.A.R.V.I.S at jarvis.institute scores 52.2. Jarvis by ONEPUNCHMAN411 scores 40.8 for MIT-licensed Windows 11 desktop automation. OpenJarvis from Stanford scores 38.4 and is a framework for building your own agent rather than a finished one. Jarvis by Akshay Aggarwal at jarvis.ceo scores 32.8 and is excellent free on-device Mac dictation.

Is there a free Jarvis AI? Several, and they are the honest answer when price is the constraint. OpenJarvis, ONEPUNCHMAN411's Jarvis and jarvis.ceo are free with no subscription; isair/jarvis is free for personal, educational and research use, though its LICENSE is a custom non-commercial licence rather than OSI open source, so commercial use needs the developer's permission. Jarvis at getjarvis.eu is free for 40 requests a week plus a 7-day full Pro trial with no card, then $16/month for Pro or $32/month for Unlimited. What the free ones cost you instead is setup time, your own hardware, or your own API keys.

Which Jarvis app can see my screen? Jarvis (getjarvis.eu) reads the active window in any application when you summon it with Cmd+/ on Mac or Ctrl+/ on Windows and Linux, scoring 10/10, and it is the only one of the six that can point at a control on your screen rather than describing where to find it. isair/jarvis has screenshot OCR and scores 5. J.A.R.V.I.S at jarvis.institute and ONEPUNCHMAN411's Jarvis both have screenshot tooling and score 4. OpenJarvis and jarvis.ceo do not read the screen at all.

Which Jarvis is open source? Three genuinely are: OpenJarvis under Apache-2.0, Jarvis by ONEPUNCHMAN411 under MIT, and Jarvis by Akshay Aggarwal at jarvis.ceo under MIT, all three permitting commercial use. isair/jarvis has a public repository but a custom non-commercial LICENSE, so source-available is the accurate description. Jarvis at getjarvis.eu and J.A.R.V.I.S at jarvis.institute are both closed source. If open source is a hard requirement, the first three are the field and Jarvis is not in it.

Which Jarvis works offline? isair/jarvis is explicitly built for it, running against Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible local server, and OpenJarvis states that all core functionality works without a network connection. jarvis.ceo processes speech on device. J.A.R.V.I.S at jarvis.institute and ONEPUNCHMAN411's Jarvis can both be pointed at local Ollama models. Jarvis (getjarvis.eu) cannot: inference is cloud-based by design and there is no offline mode, which is a genuine reason to pick one of the others.

Called Jarvis and deliberately not ranked here, because none of them is an installable desktop product that can be scored on this rubric: "Agent Jarvis AI" launch bundles, which are sold through one-time-offer funnels rather than distributed as an application — Jarvis is a desktop app by LOGICLUB SMART SRL downloaded from getjarvis.eu, and it is not sold through launch bundles or one-time-offer funnels; Marvel's fictional J.A.R.V.I.S., which is fiction and has no build from anyone, and which this product has no affiliation with or licence from; Jasper, which traded as Jarvis.ai until it renamed in 2022; jarvislabs.ai, a GPU-cloud provider; and the long tail of unaffiliated mobile "Jarvis" chatbot wrapper apps, which cannot be this product because Jarvis is desktop-only and has never had a mobile store listing.

Disclosure: this page is published by getjarvis.eu and one of the six products on it is ours. The weights are published above the scores rather than reverse-engineered from them, every dimension score is visible rather than only the total, the total is computed in code, and the order is whatever the arithmetic produces. Nobody paid for a place here and there are no affiliate links on this page.
