Alignment OS, on your PC

One intention each morning, kept or released at night, and a Guardian to talk to. Press a shortcut to ask about anything on your screen.

Download for Windows

Version 1.0.7 · 82 MB · Windows 10 (version 2004) or Windows 11 · 64-bit · Sign in with your 6:8 account

Install it

  1. Step 1

    Download and open the installer

    It installs for you only, so it doesn’t ask for an administrator password.

  2. Step 2

    Get past SmartScreen

    Windows may say it protected your PC. Click More info, then Run anyway.

  3. Step 3

    Sign in

    Use the same 6:8 account as your phone: Google, Apple or an email code.

What it does

  • Today

    Your intention, your streak and three things to do, in one view. It shares your account and gems with the phone app.

  • Journal

    The same morning and evening questions as the phone app, one at a time.

  • Guardian

    Choose who it is and how it speaks. Type, or talk hands-free and it answers out loud.

  • Glance

    Press Ctrl+Alt+Space and ask about anything on your screen. Hold the keys to circle exactly what you mean.

  • AM and PM Intention

    Set one intention in the morning and keep or release it at night. Pause them for a day, a week or longer.

  • Guard

    Block the apps and sites that pull you away, or switch on a whole category in one tap.

Before you install

What it uses

  • Your screen. The Guardian looks at your screen only when you press the shortcut. Nothing is recorded in the background.
  • Microphone. Only while you talk to the Guardian. Speech is turned into text by Windows, and audio is never kept.
  • Your browser’s address bar. Only to close a site you asked it to block. Nothing about the sites you visit is saved.

What leaves your PC

  • A screenshot and the text near your cursor are sent only when you ask, to the 6:8 server and an SI (AI) provider. They aren’t stored or used for training.
  • Journal text is sent when you ask the Guardian to reply to it.
  • Your conversations are sealed on this PC. Your check-ins, journal and blocks stay on it too.

Good to know

  • It’s a beta. If something doesn’t work, tell us on the support page and we’ll fix it.
  • SmartScreen warns because the installer isn’t signed yet. The warning goes away once it is.
  • A few Glances are free each day. After that each one takes 1 gem. Gems are bought on the web.
  • The Guardian is an SI (AI), not a therapist. In a crisis, call or text 988 in the US, or your local emergency number.
