Plug a USB into any Windows, Mac, or Linux machine. Describe the problem in plain English. Watch it get fixed. Unplug. No trace left behind.
One command. CPU, RAM, disk, startup bloat, security, network. See everything wrong in 10 seconds.
$ fixstix /scan
→ runs in ~10 seconds, no installation required
Same 2014 laptop. One /scan, one /fix, one /cleanup. The USB unplugs and takes nothing with it.
Insert the USB. Double-click on Windows, ./fixstix.sh on Mac & Linux. No install, no admin headache.
Tell the AI what's wrong in plain English. "It's slow." "WiFi keeps dropping." "Printer won't print."
It diagnoses, explains, and fixes — with your approval on every action. Every command and install is tracked.
Run /cleanup to reverse every install from the session. Unplug. The PC is exactly how you found it.
No "yolo mode." Ever. Every action is explicit, logged, and reversible.
The AI proposes a plan. You accept, tweak, or reject each step. Nothing touches the machine without a yes.
Every command, timestamp, and result written to the USB. SOC 2-ready for IT pros and MSPs.
Documents, passwords, browser data — all off-limits by design. The engine can't even open them.
Every install paired with its uninstall command. One /cleanup and the machine is pristine.
Run Ollama on the USB host — 100% offline. Zero data ever leaves the machine. Perfect for air-gapped IT.
Pros report a full triage in under 5 minutes. A ticket's worth of work before the coffee's cold.
Two ways in. Same engine. Same audit trail. Same zero-trace promise.
Bring your own USB. Download the kit, run the setup wizard, you're live in 30 seconds.
/scanA pre-loaded drive on your desk. Plug, run Setup, add a key, go. Built for the person who just wants it to work.
Requires an API key from any supported provider. NVIDIA NIM has a free tier. Ollama runs completely offline and free. Typical cloud cost: $0.01 – $0.10 per session.
"I plugged it into my mom's laptop on Thanksgiving and five minutes later it booted in under 10 seconds. She thinks I'm a wizard now. I'm fine with that."
"First tool I've actually added to my MSP loadout in two years. The audit trail alone is worth the price — SOC 2 clients love it."
"Watching it roll back every install with one command is oddly satisfying. Like a time machine but for other people's mistakes."
No. It runs entirely from the USB. If the AI needs to install software to fix an issue, it asks permission and logs everything. /cleanup reverses installations.
Not necessarily. With Ollama local, it runs 100% offline. Cloud providers (Claude, GPT, NVIDIA NIM, Grok) need internet but offer more powerful models. You can also run Ollama on one machine and connect over WiFi from others — great for IT pros servicing multiple PCs.
Slow performance, network issues, startup bloat, driver problems, disk cleanup, service configuration, printer issues, system updates, and more. It also detects hardware issues (failing drives, overheating, bad RAM) and malware warning signs.
Yes — through safe package managers (Chocolatey, winget, brew, apt). Every installation requires your approval, is logged, and can be reversed.
Yes. Personal files, passwords, and browser data are never accessed. 40+ dangerous commands are blocked. Every action requires approval. With local Ollama, no data ever leaves the machine.
Like a password that lets FixStix connect to an AI model. Get one from your provider of choice — NVIDIA NIM has a free tier, Ollama is completely free/offline, or use Claude/GPT/Grok (pay-per-use). Typical cloud session costs less than a dime.
Yes. The system prompt file on the USB controls behavior. Tune it for your environment, add company policies, or specialize for certain types of issues. Engine is readable JavaScript — no black boxes.
Plug it in. Describe the problem. Watch it get fixed.
