Runwita is local-first and works without external accounts, but two things need to be in place before the AI features do anything useful.

​
1. Configure an AI provider

Runwita uses AI to extract structure from your transcripts and notes. Without a provider configured, the Process with AI button on the Inbox does nothing useful, and the AI Insights features (deal health, stakeholders, executive summary) refuse to run. You bring your own key. Calls go directly from your machine to the provider you choose, and they’re billed against your account, not ours. We never proxy, store, or see your traffic.
1

Open Settings → Models

Two cards appear: Frontier (the deeper-reasoning tier) and Workhorse (extraction and chat).
2

Pick a provider for at least one tier

Claude, OpenAI, Ollama, or a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint. You can configure both tiers with the same provider, or split them. See Models for the full reference.
3

Paste your API key, load models, pick one, save

The model dropdown populates from the provider’s /v1/models endpoint. Save with the bottom bar.
If you skip this step and try to run AI on something, you’ll get a clear error pointing back to Settings. No silent failures.

​
2. Choose how engagements get into the Inbox

Every engagement in Runwita starts as an item in the Inbox. There are three ways to feed the Inbox:
  • Drop a file. Drag a .txt, .md, .vtt, or .srt transcript onto the Inbox and it appears immediately.
  • Paste text. Use the paste area at the top of the Inbox. Useful for emails, chat threads, or rough notes typed straight in.
  • Point Runwita at a folder. If you already have a folder where transcripts and notes accumulate (a transcription tool’s output folder, a synced notes directory, anything), set it once in Settings → Connections → Notes folder. Runwita watches the root of that folder and any new file appears in the Inbox within seconds.
Folder watching is read-only. Runwita never writes to or deletes from the folder you point it at. Files you don’t want imported can be moved into a subfolder; only the root is watched. You don’t have to set up the folder watcher to get started. Drag-and-drop is enough.
