Files & automation
Your files come with you. So do your habits.
Bernie opens what you already have, exports to what you need — and can even get help from an AI assistant, without ever handing it the laser.
In detail

Settings and backups
- Settings bundles Preferences, shortcuts, devices, macros and libraries in a single .bernielot file.
- Automatic backups 50 backups kept, restored in one click.
- Custom shortcuts On Mac and on iPad with a keyboard, conflicts flagged.
Automation
- AI assistant (MCP) An assistant such as Claude adds shapes, sets layers, checks the job — every action can be undone, and it never controls the laser.
- UDP commands LightBurn-compatible but authenticated with a token; starting a job always waits for your click.
Built-in help
- User guide in English and French F1 opens the topic for whatever you are doing.
- “My job is…” From the symptom (offset, burnt corners, too faint…) to the causes and the fixes.
- Report a problem From the app, with the log and preview attached if you choose.
