Quick answers
- Does it work without internet?
- Yes. You need a connection to download the app and a model. After that, everything runs offline.
- Which Macs are supported?
- Any Mac with Apple silicon. Local picks a model that fits your memory.
- Is any of my data collected?
- No. Everything lives in a database on your Mac. No account, no telemetry.
- Can I still use GPT or Claude?
- Yes, with your own API key. Those requests go to the provider, so cloud models are off while privacy mode is on.
- What makes it faster than other local apps?
- BaseRT, our inference engine. Most local apps ship one generic build. Local installs the one compiled for your chip.
