AgentChat Hub vs AppRelay Remote

AgentChat Hub — Chat with Any AI Agent, Instantly. Your AI agents deserve a great interface. AgentChat Hub is the universal messenger for the open AI web — connect to any A2A-compatible agent, any cloud LLM provider, or a model running on your own machine, stream responses in real time, and own every conversation. CONNECT TO ANY AI, THREE WAYS No subscriptions. No gatekeeping. No lock-in. • Bring your own agent — any AI agent built on the open A2A protocol. Host it on Railway, Render, Fly.io, or your own server, then connect with a single URL • Bring your own key — connect directly to Claude, OpenAI, xAI Grok, Moonshot Kimi, or DeepSeek. Your key lives in your device's Keychain and is never sent anywhere but that provider • Run it locally — point AgentChat Hub at Ollama or LM Studio on your own network; the app discovers exactly which models you have installed Test Connection validates your key and model together before you save an agent. GIVE YOUR AGENTS REAL TOOLS Connect any agent to MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers — add a server once, attach it to whichever agents need it, and get real function-calling against those tools, OAuth included. HAND OFF WORK, NOT JUST MESSAGES Give an agent a task with a title and a goal, and it runs its own multi-turn conversation until the job is actually done — no babysitting, no re-typing continue. FEATURES • Universal Agent Client — A2A, Cloud AI (BYOK), and Local Server, all in one app • Live Streaming — watch responses appear as your agent thinks • MCP tool support — real function-calling for any attached agent • Tasks — assign a goal, get back a finished result • Groups & Custom Tabs — organise agents into Work, Creative, Research, or anything else • Rich Attachments — photos, images, and files in chat • Files view — every attachment from a conversation collected in one place • Multi-Agent — add and switch between multiple agents seamlessly • Rename Agents & Custom Profile Photos • Copy & Share — long-press any message to copy or share to Gmail, Messages, Notes, and more • Full iPhone/iPad feature parity — Home, Tasks, Groups, and per-agent detail, everywhere • No Account Needed — anonymous sessions, stored securely on-device • Dark Mode — looks great day or night BUILT FOR BUILDERS The missing front-end for the open AI ecosystem — support bots, productivity assistants, creative writing agents, or local models all get a home here. Built for developers testing A2A agents, teams running internal AI assistants, self-hosters, and anyone who wants a private, clean chat UI. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account. No tracking. No cloud sync. Conversations live on your device and nowhere else. API keys and MCP tokens live in the Keychain. Sessions use a secure anonymous ID — never linked to your identity. OPEN PROTOCOL. ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES. A2A is an open standard for AI agent communication, and MCP is the open standard for giving agents tools. AgentChat Hub speaks both natively. RESPONSIBLE USE AgentChat Hub connects to agents and providers you choose and control. The developer does not operate, monitor, or control any agent, provider, or server you connect to. This app must not be used for any unlawful, harmful, or unethical purpose.

Stop walking back to your desk to kick off a build. Ship from the couch. AppRelay Remote is the mobile companion to AppRelay Server for desktop — a remote control that commands your Mac or PC to build, run, test, and ship your app projects. The Mac does the work; your phone drives it. Pair once over your local Wi-Fi and your whole AppRelay workspace comes with you: every project, every lane, every release channel, right on your iPhone or iPad. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Trigger builds, runs, and test suites on your Mac with a tap • Cut a release — ship a lane to its distribution channel without touching your desk • Watch live, streaming log output as each build runs, with a Stop button when you need it • Browse every project as a card: toolchain, lanes, version, and source-control status at a glance • Edit the full project configuration — general settings, lanes, servers, toolchains, test suites — and save it back to your Mac • Bump or set version and build numbers • Edit .env / dotenv files on disk, remotely • Manage your Mac's AppRelay license: activate a key, check status, or move the seat BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD On iPhone you get a fast, single-column flow. On iPad you get the same two-column sidebar-and-detail layout as the Mac app — it even re-skins live when you change the desktop theme. SECURE BY DESIGN • Discovers Macs on your network automatically over Bonjour • Pair with a one-time token shown on your Mac — each device gets its own credential • All traffic runs over TLS, pinned to your Mac on first connection • Your Mac stays in control: block or disconnect any device at any time • Secrets never leave your Mac — the phone sees credential labels only, never their values REQUIRES THE MAC APP AppRelay Remote needs AppRelay for macOS running on the same network. Get it at apprelay.io/download. Free to pair; Pro features are managed on the Mac. AppRelay Remote needs the desktop app, which is **not** on the Mac App Store — it ships directly from the website (Sparkle-updated, notarized DMG). **Download:** https://apprelay.io/download **Requirement:** macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. **Enable the server:** open AppRelay → **Relay Monitor** → **Start**. This starts a local HTTPS server, advertises it over Bonjour (`_apprelay._tcp`), and shows the address + a pairing token. **Pair:** on the same Wi-Fi, open AppRelay Remote, pick the Mac under "Discovered Macs" (or enter host/port manually), and enter the pairing token. **Security:** self-signed TLS pinned trust-on-first-use; each device gets its own token; the Mac can block/disconnect any device from Relay Monitor.
