The Swiss Army Knife of Offline AI. Chat, Speak, and Generate Images - Privacy First, Zero Internet. Download an LLM and use it on your mobile device. No data ever leaves your phone. Supports text-to-text, vision, text-to-image
A voice, personas, and actions. $69 for life, or $49/year.
Pro is an optional, additive tier. It gives the assistant a voice that talks back, personas you shape, and the tools to draft real actions you approve. One license covers your phone and your Mac. All on-device.
What Pro adds
Voice mode - the free app transcribes your speech; Pro adds on-device Kokoro text-to-speech, so it talks back and you run the whole thing hands-free. The voice runs in your phone's RAM.
Custom personas - give each assistant its own system prompt, voice, and persistent memory, so it stays in character across conversations.
Draft, then approve - connect Calendar, email, and MCP servers like Linear, Notion, and GitHub. It drafts the reply or files the ticket and waits. Nothing sends without your tap.
Sync, landing through July - your phone and your Mac merge into one picture over your own network, never a relay. Your license includes it the day it ships.
→ Get Pro access - $69 once and it is yours forever (the price climbs as more people join, never down), or $49/year.
Most "local LLM" apps give you a text chatbot and call it a day. Off Grid AI is a complete offline AI suite — text generation, image generation, vision AI, voice transcription, tool calling, and document analysis, all running natively on your phone's or Mac's hardware.
What can it do?
Text Generation — Run Qwen 3, Llama 3.2, Gemma 3, Phi-4, and any GGUF model. Streaming responses, thinking mode, markdown rendering, 15-30 tok/s on flagship devices. Bring your own .gguf files too.
Remote LLM Servers — Connect to any OpenAI-compatible server on your local network (Ollama, LM Studio, LocalAI). Discover models automatically, stream responses via SSE, store API keys securely in the system keychain. Switch seamlessly between local and remote models.
Tool Calling — Models that support function calling can use built-in tools: web search, calculator, date/time, device info, and knowledge base search. Automatic tool loop with runaway prevention. Clickable links in search results.
Project Knowledge Base — Upload PDFs and text documents to a project's knowledge base. Documents are chunked, embedded on-device with a bundled MiniLM model, and retrieved via cosine similarity — all stored locally in SQLite. The search_knowledge_base tool is automatically available in project conversations.
Image Generation — On-device Stable Diffusion with real-time preview. NPU-accelerated on Snapdragon (5-10s per image), Core ML on iOS. 20+ models including Absolute Reality, DreamShaper, Anything V5.
Vision AI — Point your camera at anything and ask questions. SmolVLM, Qwen3-VL, Gemma 3n — analyze documents, describe scenes, read receipts. ~7s on flagship devices.
Voice Input — On-device Whisper speech-to-text. Hold to record, auto-transcribe. No audio ever leaves your phone.
Document Analysis — Attach PDFs, code files, CSVs, and more to your conversations. Native PDF text extraction on both platforms.
AI Prompt Enhancement — Simple prompt in, detailed Stable Diffusion prompt out. Your text model automatically enhances image generation prompts.
macOS: The iOS App Store version runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs via Mac Catalyst / iPad compatibility.
