On device private AI agents that live entirely on your iPhone. No accounts. No cloud. No tracking. Every conversation, every image, every document stays on your device β€” even with airplane mode on. Built for people who want a private ChatGPT or Claude alternative that works offline β€” without the account, the cloud round-trips, or the data harvesting. Pick an agent and start. Or build your own in five guided steps. β€” THE FIVE BUILT-IN AGENTS β€” Scout β€” your research agent. Searches the web with citations, summarizes findings, and remembers context across questions. Lens β€” your vision agent. Drop in a photo, screenshot, or whiteboard shot and ask anything about it. Ghost β€” your writing agent. Drafts, rewrites, edits, and shifts tone. The output reads like you, not like a chatbot. Vault β€” your document agent. Load PDFs, text files, or Markdown notes and ask questions. Answers cite the page they came from. Spark β€” your brainstorming agent. Pressure-tests ideas, runs lateral riffs, and breaks creative blocks. β€” BUILD YOUR OWN AGENT β€” A five-step guided wizard turns an idea into a working agent in under a minute. Choose its purpose, give it tools, pick a model, set its look. The on-device model writes its name, picks an emoji, and drafts the system prompt for you to approve. Unlimited custom agents. Each one keeps its own personality, its own toolset, and its own accent color. β€” TRUE ON-DEVICE AI β€” Powered by Apple's MLX framework with 4-bit quantized models that download once and then run forever, offline. Supported models include Qwen 3.5 in 0.8B, 2B, and 4B sizes β€” all multimodal with vision β€” plus Ministral 3B for fast text-only chat. More models are being added regularly, and we encourage you to contact us for requests. Pick the model that fits your iPhone. Switch any time. β€” FEATURES β€” Β· Streaming token output, native SwiftUI, dark-mode first Β· Per-agent accent colors and emoji Β· Extended thinking mode you can toggle per message Β· Web search via DuckDuckGo with proper citations Β· Native image understanding for screenshots, photos, and scans Β· Local document Q&A across PDF, TXT, and Markdown Β· VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion all fully supported β€” PRIVACY, FOR REAL β€” Β· 100% on-device inference. No model call ever leaves the iPhone. Β· No account. No sign-in. No email. Β· No analytics. No telemetry. No third-party SDKs reading anything. Β· Conversations, attached images, and uploaded documents stay on your device. Β· The only network call the app ever makes is your explicit web search, and only when you tap Scout. The privacy posture is a feature, not a marketing line. Your iPhone is the entire system. β€” REQUIREMENTS β€” iPhone running iOS 18 or later. Models download on first use; sizes range roughly from 600 MB to 3 GB depending on which model you pick. β€” SUPPORT β€” Questions, suggestions, bug reports: see the in-app Help screen.
