Answer

Delivered in Telegram

01 / Product flow

Capture. Understand. Answer.

Altace assembles the useful signal from screen, audio, queued frames, and recent interaction, then returns a response through Telegram.

  1. 01

    Capture

    Trigger Altace from any application to capture screen, audio, or queued visual context.

  2. 02

    Understand

    Altace assembles the relevant context with your recent interaction history.

  3. 03

    Answer

    Altace generates the response and delivers it through Telegram.

02 / Rolling audio

Ask after it happened.

Altace holds recent desktop audio in a configurable rolling buffer. Trigger it after a moment has passed to include that audio with your request.

The buffer supplies recent audio only when you decide to ask; it is not presented as a searchable conversation archive.

What’s causing the timeout in the trace I just captured?

Altace10:42

The retry starts before the previous request releases its socket. The overlap grows across attempts. Move cleanup into `finally`, then apply backoff after the socket closes.

@altace_bot turn that into a concise fix for the incident thread.

Altace10:44

Fix: close each request socket before scheduling its retry. This removes overlapping connections; exponential backoff then controls subsequent attempts.
