- Distributed LLM inference
- Combines memory of multiple devices
- Supports Wi-Fi and wired connections
- Tensor and pipeline parallelism
- Local model execution

Infer Ring enables local LLM inference by combining the memory of multiple iOS and macOS devices. Just run the app on each device to pool their RAM and unlock models that wouldn’t fit on a single machine. Infer Ring works over both Wi-Fi and wired connections — simply connecting devices with a USB cable lets you immediately utilise their combined power. Supports both tensor and pipeline parallelism.
Veloterm
Read full descriptionHide full description
Veloterm is a fast, native SSH client for iPhone and iPad with a built-in AI assistant. Connect to your remote servers over SSH and work in a full xterm-256color terminal powered by SwiftTerm — with an AI helper that can suggest, explain, and fix shell commands. SECURE BY DESIGN • Host-key pinning (TOFU): a changed server fingerprint refuses the connection to defend against man-in-the-middle attacks. • Passwords and private keys are stored only in the iOS Keychain — never synced, never logged. • App Transport Security enforced. The app talks only to the SSH hosts you configure and, for AI, to Anthropic's API. AI ASSISTANT — BRING YOUR OWN KEY • Suggest, Explain, and Fix commands right from the terminal. • Uses YOUR OWN Anthropic API key, stored in the Keychain and called directly from your device. No middle-man server, no analytics, no tracking. FAST & NATIVE • SwiftUI interface for iPhone and iPad, with split-view multitasking. • Password or private-key authentication. • Import and export your host profiles. VELOTERM PRO • Free: save up to 20 hosts. • Pro (one-time purchase): unlimited saved hosts plus profile export/import. Veloterm is an SSH client — it connects to servers you control and does not run a shell on the device.
