I found this new office software today make sure to check it out!
GenOffice is a free, open-source alternative to Microsoft Office for macOS, Windows and Linux. It opens and saves native .docx, .xlsx and .pptx files, edits PDF, Markdown and HTML, and puts an AI agent next to every document — not a chat box bolted on the side, but an editor that reads the file, makes the change, and shows you exactly what it touched.

  • Real formats, byte-preserving. Only what you edit is rewritten. Everything else in the file survives byte-for-byte, so documents keep working in Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
  • AI you can review. Edits land as tracked changes and diffs with one-click rollback. Spreadsheets get live formulas, not pasted numbers. Decks and pages are generated onto the canvas and stay fully editable.
  • Local by design. Files open, edit, save and convert on your machine. PDF → Word / Excel / PowerPoint, Markdown → Word and HTML → Word all run on-device. Only the AI calls leave the machine, to the provider you choose.
  • Your keys or none. Sign in with Genspark and skip keys, or bring your own key for Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, Qwen, Doubao, MiniMax, Grok, Mistral, OpenRouter, Requesty, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, local servers included.

I've used HD Cleaner for quite some time, I found TweakPower by the same author quite useful, either install or portable, some options are duplicates of windows options scattered around but for me it does a great job - Worth a look
