# Synthetiq Desktop

> The AI workspace for building, managing, and deploying apps and services through conversation

Synthetiq Desktop is the primary client for the Synthetiq platform. It provides a conversational AI interface for building full-stack applications and services without writing code directly.

## Key capabilities

* **Chat-driven development** — describe what you want and the AI agent builds it
* **Service management** — install, configure, and authenticate external service integrations
* **Run apps locally** — run apps directly from Desktop without deploying, whether during development or for apps that connect to external APIs and are fully functional without a deployment
* **Deployment** — deploy apps to the web with one click
* **Collaboration** — share apps and services with team members, publish to your org store
* **Version management** — push versions, browse history, set active versions

## Getting started

To install Synthetiq Desktop and build your first app, follow the [Quick Start guide](/docs/quickstart/download-and-login).
