About

Chat with AI models that run on your own computer. Download open models such as Llama, Gemma or Qwen from HuggingFace, create assistants for specific tasks, and keep everything local when you want privacy.

If you prefer, you can also connect cloud services such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral or Groq from the same app. Jan runs a local server at localhost:1337 with an OpenAI-compatible API, so other programs can use your models, and it supports the Model Context Protocol. Versions are available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

Highlights

  • Runs open models like Llama, Gemma and Qwen locally
  • Optional connection to cloud AI services
  • Local OpenAI-compatible server on localhost:1337

Who it's for

Good for people who want a ChatGPT-style assistant that can work offline and keep conversations on their machine.
