<Note>
  Windows and macOS are in **Beta**. The Linux build is in **Alpha** - functional but rough around the edges, and not yet code-signed. All downloads resolve to the latest beta-channel build via CrabNebula Cloud's CDN.
</Note>

<Warning>
  **macOS users:** the Beta build is not yet notarized with Apple, so macOS will say Echophrase is "damaged" on first launch. After dragging to Applications, run this in Terminal to clear Apple's quarantine flag:

  ```bash theme={null}
  xattr -cr /Applications/Echophrase.app
  ```

  Notarized builds will land once our Developer ID enrollment finishes.
</Warning>

## GPU Acceleration

Echophrase auto-detects the fastest available device on first launch — you
don't need to configure anything, and there's no driver setup to do.

* **Windows**: DirectML on any DirectX 12 GPU (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Qualcomm).
  Built into Windows, no install required.
* **macOS**: Metal acceleration on Apple Silicon, macOS 13.3+ — currently
  **in testing**.
* **Linux**: CPU. GPU acceleration on the roadmap.

See [Requirements](/requirements) for hardware recommendations and the model
support matrix. CUDA is no longer supported — see the note on that page for
why we made the switch.
