HopPT offers a complete chatbot experience for any LLM API provider. It is also great to access your local models. The web search functionality uses serper.dev for searching, but the whole pipeline runs on your device. Your conversations are just between you and your LLM. We are very proud of the web search performance. Instructions: -Add an endpoint in settings (with API Key if required). -Press Manage Models, select the models from that endpoint that you want to be able to see in the model selector. -If you want to use web search, add your serper.dev API Key. -For a very slight improvement in web search answer quality (but a slight hit on context window and speed) you can add a jina.ai API Key to outsource the url scraping to Jina Reader. We recommend using the local WebKit solution. For an optimal web search experience we advise not to use thinking models when you enable the web search functionality. We also advise to use web search with models that are faster than 20 tokens per second in token generation and 200 token per second in prompt processing speed (web search context is on average 8k tokens, but it can reach 30/40k for complex searches). The app also has a fully local whisper-v3-large-turbo model that the user has to download and compile in settings. It will stay compiled throughout sessions without occupying RAM space. The transcription functionality is a super cool thing by itself. It's 15x faster than real life speed and is fully local. You can try a voice-only bonus functionality (for better voice quality download premium voices on your iPhone's settings)

Memora — Your Memory, in Your Voice Talk to it like a friend. It remembers everything — privately. Memora is a voice-first memory app that turns your thoughts, conversations, and moments into a searchable personal archive. Just tap Record, speak naturally, and move on. Memora transcribes, organizes, and remembers everything for you — entirely on your device. Now on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. TALK, DON'T TYPE Capture an idea, meeting, journal entry, or fleeting thought with one tap. A live transcript appears as you speak, powered by on-device speech recognition — with speaker labels added in real time as different people talk. EVERYWHERE YOU ARE Start a recording from your wrist, the Lock Screen, a widget, or the menu bar on Mac. A Live Activity keeps the session a tap away, and everything syncs to one archive. YOUR LIFE, ORGANIZED AUTOMATICALLY Every recording becomes a beautifully structured entry with: • Titles and summaries • Key moments and highlights • Action items and follow-ups • Mood and tags All generated by AI running directly on your device. ASK YOUR MEMORIES ANYTHING Forgot when you made a decision? Need to find something you said months ago? Ask questions in plain English and get answers grounded in your own recordings, complete with citations that jump back to the original moment. Search by keyword — or by meaning. KNOW WHO SAID WHAT Optional on-device speaker recognition identifies different voices in a conversation. Name someone once, and Memora can recognize them in future recordings. BRING YOUR OWN AI COPILOT On Mac, connect Memora to Claude (Claude Desktop or Claude Code) with built in Memora's MCP Server and let it follow a recording as it happens. Ask for your next question in an interview, get a draft answer to something you were just asked, or explore your saved entries — grounded in what's actually being said. Fully optional and off until you turn it on. BRING IN WHAT YOU'VE WRITTEN Paste or import text — notes, articles, documents — and Memora turns it into a narrated entry, summarized and organized alongside everything you've spoken. LISTEN BACK Have any entry read aloud with built-in on-device voices for a hands-free experience.
