About

CereVault

Features
Read full description

CereVault is a private AI chat app for your Mac. It talks to large language models running on your own machine or local network — Ollama, LM Studio, and CereVault Serve — so your conversations never leave your control. No cloud account, no telemetry, no data sent to anyone else's servers. WHY CEREVAULT • Truly private — models run locally, so your prompts, files, and chats stay on your hardware. • Works with the tools you already use — auto-discovers Ollama, LM Studio, and CereVault Serve on your machine or LAN. • Universal app — one download runs natively on Mac, iPad, and iPhone. NEW: AGENT MODE Turn on Agent mode and your local model can do more than chat. In a request → act → respond loop, it can: • Search the web (via your own Brave Search key) • Remember durable facts about you, stored locally • Read files from folders you explicitly grant • Write, move, and delete files — off by default, and every change asks first Every tool action is shown inline so you always see what the agent did, and an info button in the chat header summarizes exactly which model, tools, folders, and memory are in play. NEW: WORKSPACES Create separate workspaces, each with its own enabled tools, memory, granted folders, permissions, model, and chat history. Keep a locked-down read-only research space and a separate one that can edit a project folder — switching is instant. NEW: MCP SERVERS Connect external Model Context Protocol tool servers to a workspace and their tools join the agent right alongside web search and files. Every third-party tool call asks for your confirmation first. NEW: AUTOMATIONS Schedule a saved prompt to run on its own — every few minutes, hourly, or daily — and CereVault runs the agent and saves the result as a new chat. Runs are read-only by default. MORE • Vision — attach images for vision-capable models (Gemma 3, Llava, Qwen-VL, and more) • Voice dictation — on-device speech, so audio doesn't leave your Mac • Markdown rendering — headings, code blocks, tables, and lists render cleanly • Drag-and-drop image attach, tap-to-zoom thumbnails, adjustable text size • Native text selection and one-tap Copy / Copy as Markdown on any message CereVault puts a capable AI assistant on your Mac without giving up your privacy. Bring your own local models and keep every conversation yours.
