Tool Information

Your Own AI has evolved into a local-first desktop engine for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

It can run downloaded models without an account, chat with private documents, work inside code folders with permission, maintain customizable personalities and encrypted memory, produce tamper-evident conversation records, and expose an OpenAI-compatible local endpoint to other applications.Local execution limits data exposure but does not make model output correct or code execution harmless.

Verify downloaded models and licenses, encrypt and back up the device, grant project-folder and command access narrowly, inspect document citations and code diffs, protect the local API, and understand exactly what leaves the device before selecting an optional online model or web search.
