How Haviland Can Be Used

Replace your AI setup

If you're switching between a chat AI, a search engine, and your file system to get things done, Haviland consolidates that into one place. Ask a question, get a web-sourced answer. Ask it to read a document, it reads the document. Ask it to write to a file, it writes to the file. The friction of stitching tools together disappears.

Research and information work

The web search integration is the key feature here. Haviland actively searches the web in real time and returns summarized, relevant results — making it far more useful for anything time-sensitive: current events, pricing, recent documentation, news.

Projects and files

With the Project Panel, drag in the files relevant to what you're doing, build a context for that conversation, and let Haviland work within it. Developers preview HTML inside the app; writers and analysts build a file workspace Haviland interacts with directly. It behaves more like a project environment than a chat interface.

Consequential tasks

Plan Mode shines for anything that matters. Before Haviland takes a series of actions — especially writing files or multi-step work — it lays out the full plan for approval. You stay in control.

Hands-free and voice

Voice mode opens up hands-free operation, verbal brainstorming, and dictation. The real-time reactive visualizer makes it feel like a genuine conversation.

Ambient, all-day assistance

The Chrome Extension is where Haviland becomes something you use passively throughout the day. The Selection actions turn every piece of text you encounter into something you can act on; the command bar keeps you a shortcut away from an answer; the sidebar analyzes the page you're reading without losing your place. For people who live in their browser, this is genuinely transformative.

Automation (Pro)

On the Pro tier, the n8n workflow automation integration lets you trigger automated workflows through natural language — turning Haviland from an assistant into an automation layer.
