G

Gotcha

Samosa-AI

Freemium

On-device Android AI copilot that turns natural language into 100+ real device actions with dual safety modes.

Key features

  • On-device Copilot: Runs entirely on the user's Android phone with a bring-your-own-model architecture, so prompts, screen context, and actions never require a cloud round-trip.
  • Dual Copilot Modes: Instant switch between Monitor mode (40+ read-only tools for planning) and Operator mode (all 100+ tools for execution) so users choose inspection vs action per task.
  • 100+ Native Device Tools: Send SMS, place calls, manage storage, toggle torch, set wallpapers, read the screen, control volume, and automate any app through a curated Android tool library.
  • Tiered Permission Model: Four permission tiers (from everyday battery/storage access to Tier 4 privileged root actions) with explicit gates so nothing runs without user consent.
  • Assistive Ball & Push-to-Talk: A floating orb accessible from any app supports 'Hey Gotcha' voice calls where Gotcha sees the current screen and acts on the user's behalf.
  • Visual Safety Indicators: A colored ring around the screen shows when Gotcha is reading the display (blue) or working in the background (orange), backed by an append-only audit log.
  • BYOK Model Choice: Bring your own local or cloud model — or use free Samosa AI credits routed through the OpenAI-compatible Samosa AIR API for zero setup.
  • Skill Hub Extensibility: Add third-party skills through the Gotcha Skill Hub so the copilot's action library grows with the community.

Best for

  • Hands-free Messaging: Say 'Text mom I'm running late' and Gotcha finds the contact and sends the SMS without touching the screen.
  • Storage Cleanup: Ask Gotcha to free up space and it inspects app usage, then confirms uninstalls of games or apps you haven't opened in months.
  • Screen-aware Shopping: While browsing a page, ask 'find similar shirts to the one worn here' and Gotcha reads the screen, searches the web, and returns matches.
  • Quick Device Control: Toggle the torch, set the volume, change wallpaper, or open a specific playlist in Spotify with one spoken sentence.
  • Privacy-first Automation: Users who don't want cloud LLMs running their phones can plug in a local model and keep prompts, screen content, and actions on-device.
  • Developer Copilot Extensions: Ship a Gotcha Skill so a niche workflow (e.g., custom-app automation) becomes a first-class action inside the copilot.
