Orchestris AI Chat

Orchestris Chat is a free client for Orchestris AI workspaces and deployments. Connect to an Orchestris-hosted, managed, private, or self-hosted server and use the models and tools your organization has configured. You can also connect supported direct or local endpoints when permitted by your deployment. Features include streaming AI conversations, organization-aware conversation sync, image and file attachments, configurable models and providers, secure credential storage, and privacy-conscious deployment options. For supported connected servers, Settings includes an in-app account deletion request. Supported server-synced assistant responses can be reported from the message actions menu. Data handling depends on the deployment and provider you choose. Before the first provider-backed send, the app explains that messages and attachments may be processed by the selected server or AI provider. Orchestris Chat contains no advertising SDK and does not use cross-app tracking. The mobile app does not sell subscriptions or digital features. Access to hosted or organization-managed services is provisioned outside the mobile app.
