## What is Tohru AI?

Tohru is a conversational assistant that works with Apple Intelligence right after you install it, and that you can connect to your own tools and your own AI model.

READY RIGHT AWAY
• No account, no key: Tohru answers with Apple Intelligence (Private Cloud Compute model).
• Streaming replies, in English or French, in the language of your question.
• Attach images and PDFs: Tohru reads them and answers (text recognition for scanned pages).
• On-device dictation, and replies read aloud.

YOUR TOOLS, THROUGH MCP
• Add an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server by its address alone: Tohru discovers its tools and uses them to answer.
• Protected servers: their login page opens on its own (MCP's OAuth authorization standard); Tohru never sees your password and renews access by itself.
• Add links: a provider can publish a link that opens its server's sheet, already filled in.
• Private servers with self-signed certificates are supported.
• Nothing happens behind your back: any tool that writes, sends or deletes shows a confirmation card with all its parameters, and nothing runs without your approval.

YOUR OWN MODEL, IF YOU WISH
• Enter the URL of any model compatible with the OpenAI API: a local model on your network, or an online service with its key.
• Adjust the temperature, the system prompt and the reasoning level.

MAC, IPHONE, IPAD AND IPHONE DUO
• A clean interface: your conversations, search across your whole history, swipe to delete, settings within thumb's reach.
• On iPhone Duo: conversations on one side and the chat on the other in book posture; the chat on top and the input at the bottom in laptop posture.

PRIVACY
• Your conversations stay on your device. The developer collects no data: no account, no analytics, no ads.
• Requests only go to Apple Intelligence, and to the model and servers you chose.

Apple Intelligence requires a compatible device with Apple Intelligence turned on, and an Internet connection; its requests count against your iCloud account's quota. Full guide (MCP servers, model by URL): r0o.wtf/tohru
