Ask anything, privately. CanopyChat is an AI assistant that runs right on your iPhone. Your conversations stay on your device instead of going to someone else's servers, and after a one-time model download, everyday chat works even without a connection. WHAT IT'S GOOD FOR • Writing help: texts, emails and tricky messages • Quick answers to everyday questions • Thinking things through, planning and reflecting • Current information: when a question needs something recent, it searches the web and shows its sources BUILT AROUND YOUR PRIVACY • No account or sign-in • Conversations stay on your iPhone by default • Web search and location are optional and only used when you ask • Optional help on harder questions: with your permission, Canopy can ask Apple's Private Cloud Compute for brief notes. Only your question and a few recent messages are sent, never attachments or memory. CALM BY DESIGN • Workspaces keep personal, work, creative and research chats apart • Several assistants, each with its own style • A warm light theme, plus a dark mode for late nights CANOPYCHAT PLUS Subscribe monthly or yearly for unlimited chats. CanopyChat Plus is an auto-renewable subscription available monthly or yearly. Prices, renewal details, and cancellation information are shown before purchase in the app. Terms of Use (Apple Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://canopychat.app/privacy.html
