What it does

A desktop app for running local models, with an OpenAI-compatible local server. The official page is the source for this profile. This is not a hands-on review.

Who should care

People who want a local chat app and a localhost API. That is the audience, not a claim that every reader should adopt this vendor.

Our take: Watch

The README states Apache 2.0. Confirm the LICENSE file in the revision you install. This is an editorial recommendation for the stated use case, not an investment rating or a benchmark result.

Pricing without the confetti

Free to download. Treat the repository license as the terms. Source: public page, checked November 7, 2026. Where a license applies instead of a subscription, the license is the price.

Before you commit

Write down the job, what data enters it, who approves the output, and the maximum bill or license constraint you can live with. If the exit route is unclear, keep the trial small. These are recommended checks, not claims of completed testing.
