What to know before choosing

Good fit

People who want to ask questions of their own documents without uploading them to a cloud service.

Limits and trade-offs

Desktop only — there is no web or hosted version; you download and run an executable for macOS, Windows or Linux. It runs a local Mistral-7B model through Ollama, so answers are limited to that local model and your own machine's resources; GPU support and a custom model need extra setup. The Windows app is not signed, so Windows shows a warning when you run it, and the macOS app needs a developer certificate to be signed for other machines.

Plans and free allowances

No price is stated; the tool is MIT-licensed open source on GitHub and a free download from chatd.ai or the releases page.
