Hello everyone, I've built a simple macOS app for chatting with models downloaded by Ollama - https://github.com/sheshbabu/Chital It's written in Swift, consumes less memory and loads fast. It has these features: * Support for multiple chat threads * Switch between different models * Markdown support * Automatic chat thread title summarization It's my first time working with Swift and Xcode, and it has been an interesting journey. The performance of the application is a big plus when building native apps, but I wonder if I'll be able to add features like document…

Hi HN, I’m excited to share LocoStudio (http://locostudio.ai), a local-first AI chat app for Mac that lets you chat with AI models both locally and in the cloud—all in one place. Why I built it: I wanted a private, fast, and flexible way to use the latest AI models without sending my data to the cloud. Most AI chat apps are either cloud-only (raising privacy concerns) or have clunky interfaces for local models. LocoStudio aims to make local AI chat as easy and powerful as using ChatGPT, but with your data staying on your device. What it does: - Private, local-first: Run open models…

I've been building Focu, a mindful productivity app for macOS, these past months. As someone diagnosed with ADHD and depression, it's been super helpful to journal daily and use an AI to reflect and get feedback. It's not a replacement for therapy, but it sure has been complementary. The app uses Ollama to provide the user with a locally running AI, the downside is that it does require a powerful device, but I've had super good results with Llama3.2:3b which is not too heavy to run at all. I'm using Dexie.js to store the data in IndexedDB although I'm considering moving to "file over app".…
