Hi Hackers, Excited to share a macOS app I've been working on: https://recurse.chat/ for chatting with local AI. While it's amazing that you can run AI models locally quite easily these days (through llama.cpp / llamafile / ollama / llm CLI etc.), I missed feature complete chat interfaces. Tools like LMStudio are super powerful, but there's a learning curve to it. I'd like to hit a middleground of simplicity and customizability for advanced users. Here's what separates RecurseChat out from similar apps: - UX designed for you to use local AI as a daily driver.…

Hey HN, Henry and Roman here - we've been building a cross-platform framework for deploying LLMs, VLMs, Embedding Models and TTS models locally on smartphones. Ollama enables deploying LLMs models locally on laptops and edge severs, Cactus enables deploying on phones. Deploying directly on phones facilitates building AI apps and agents capable of phone use without breaking privacy, supports real-time inference with no latency, we have seen personalised RAG pipelines for users and more. Apple and Google actively went into local AI models recently with the launch of Apple Foundation Frameworks…

Hey everyone, We have been building SecureAI Tools -- an open-source application layer for ChatGPT and ChatPDF-like AI tools. It works with locally running LLMs as well as with OpenAI-compatible APIs. For local LLMs, it supports Ollama which supports all the gguf/ggml models. Currently, it has two features: Chat-with-LLM, and Chat-with-PDFs. It is optimized for self-hosting use cases and comes with basic user management features. Here are some quick demos: * Chat with documents using OpenAI's GPT3.5 model: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br2D3G9O47s * Chat with documents…

Hi HN, I'm excited to introduce OllaMan, a desktop application designed to streamline your workflow with Ollama local AI models. If you're already using Ollama, you've likely experienced its power in running large language models (LLMs) locally. However, managing models, switching between them, and engaging in conversations often requires frequent command-line interaction, which can be inefficient and less intuitive for many users. OllaMan aims to solve these pain points by providing an intuitive and elegant graphical user interface (GUI), especially tailored for macOS users, adhering to…

ChatOSS is built on Ollama. If you use Ollama, ChatOSS local works out of the box. ChatOSS is a GUI desktop app that has multiple agentic coding apps and a kanban board integrated into coding sessions. There's also a simple way to create your own AI powered apps that can run inside of ChatOSS.

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…
