Run and build with open AI models locally or in the cloud
Install once and pull open-weight models by name; Ollama handles weights, quantization and versioning for you.
A built-in server exposes a straightforward REST API, so scripts, editors and agents can talk to local models with minimal setup.
Route requests to hosted open models when your laptop cannot hold the checkpoint you need, with per-token pricing and concurrency tiers.
Access families such as Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Gemma, Mistral and gpt-oss from a single interface.
The best frontend for AI.
Plug in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other LLM APIs and switch between them in a single interface, comparing responses side by side.
Bring your own keys and pay only for actual usage — Typing Mind is sold as a license rather than a recurring subscription.
Chat history and settings are stored locally in your browser, with no data collection or use for model training by the app.
Build custom AI agents, chain prompts, add training files, connect live APIs and extend functionality through a plugin library.
