A closer look at BoltAI
BoltAI is a native AI app for Mac that puts ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and local LLMs in one fast desktop workspace, with 300 or more models to switch between instantly. It offers projects, multi-chat threads, forking, reusable agents, multimodal analysis of PDFs, screenshots and code, and fine-grained controls over temperature, tokens and system instructions, plus code execution, MCP tools and attached documents. Chats are stored locally and never used for training, API keys can be encrypted with a passphrase, and the homepage says pay once with no subscription, with a free trial that needs no account.
