Install & first launch

Requirements: Windows 10 or later, NVIDIA GPU with CUDA driver recommended.

TODO: Add installer link once release artifacts exist.

Download aleph-windows-amd64.exe from the releases page, then:

powershell
.\aleph-windows-amd64.exe server

First launch

Once Aleph is running, the rest happens automatically:

  • The ML runtime is provisioned
  • Speech recognition, LLM, and TTS models are downloaded (several GB — takes a while the first time, this is normal)

Progress is visible in the logs and the Web UI.

Self-healing

Aleph validates its state on every start. Interrupted downloads, stale folders, or corrupt caches are repaired automatically — you never need to intervene manually. See Self-healing & the state dir.
