## What is ChatOnMac.com?

Your bots, your rules. Includes local, private AI models like Llama, Mistral, StableLM and cutting-edge APIs.

Chat by typing or talking with bots using the same technology as the current leading apps, or try Open Source AI models that run on your own device. Share bots with the community on GitHub. No tracking, no ads, 100% free.

Subscriptions and fees got you down?
Chat is 100% free. Chat bots are fully reusable outside the app.
If you use this app commercially, we won't take rent from you and we won't require custody of your data. Everything of yours is yours.

Real-time Voice Transcription
Powered by OpenAI Whisper, running on your own device instead of in the cloud.\n\nThat means you may speak freely and decide what to do with your message as you go; move the cursor and keep on talking, if you like. This capability built into the message field deserves its own app someday.

Open Source
Feel free to look under the hood, copy for your own bot business or personal use, or discover and run bots made by other users via GitHub. All for free, with no in-app tracking or ads. Stay tuned for AI automation features coming soon for non-developers and developers alike.

In-App Programming
Bots run inside the iOS/macOS sandbox using web technologies like JavaScript and WASM, as well as having support for dozens of other languages. Fork and extend bots for personal or business use. Stay tuned for getting GPT to create and modify chat bots for you.

iCloud Sync
Automatically backs-up and synchronizes your chats across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices via iCloud. Your data is kept secure and private in the custody of your own iCloud account.

Stay tuned for ongoing updates.
