Download SAFEMACHINE

Free. Offline. No account, no telemetry, no cloud. Pick your operating system below. The app runs entirely on your device and never sends your work anywhere.

Expect a one-time setup step the first time you open it. SAFEMACHINE is a free app and its downloads are not yet code-signed (a signing certificate is a paid step planned for a later release). On Windows and macOS your system shows a one-time "unknown publisher" prompt that is safe to continue past; on Linux you make the file executable. The exact steps for your operating system are on each download below.
Windows
10 or 11 · 64-bit · portable zip
Download for Windows

Unzip it and run the app inside. Nothing is installed, and deleting the folder removes it. On first launch Windows may show a blue "Windows protected your PC" box, because the app is not code-signed. Click More info, then Run anyway.

macOS
Apple Silicon and Intel · portable zip
Download for macOS

Unzip it and move the app where you like. On first launch macOS may say the app is from an unidentified developer. Right-click (or Control-click) the app, choose Open, then confirm. You only do this once.

Linux
x86-64 · portable zip
Download for Linux

No installation needed. Unzip it and run the app inside (chmod +x the executable if your system asks).

Need an older build or the full changelog? See all releases. The buttons above always give you the newest version, so they never go out of date.

Why the warning?

The downloads are not code-signed yet. A signing certificate is a paid step planned for a later release. Rather than hide that, the steps above clear the prompt safely, and the source build is reproducible.

Updates

SAFEMACHINE never auto-updates or phones home. When a new version ships, download it again from this page. Your saved projects stay where they are.

Your data

Everything is stored locally by the app on your own device. Nothing is uploaded. You can export and back up your projects at any time.
