Dot is a standalone Electron desktop application for chatting with your documents using fully local LLMs and Retrieval Augmented Generation. It bundles llama.cpp, FAISS vector stores, LangChain, Whisper speech recognition, and text-to-speech so everything runs offline with no data leaving the device.

Use cases

• chat with pdf documents locally
• ask questions about my files without uploading them
• offline private chatgpt alternative
• run a local llm rag app on windows or mac
• query spreadsheets and docs with ai privately
• talk to documents with voice using whisper and tts

When to choose

• you need document Q&A with strict privacy or offline operation
• you want a no-code, install-and-run local RAG app
• you're on Apple Silicon or Windows and want bundled TTS/STT

When to avoid

• you need Linux support (not yet available)
• you want a server-side or multi-user hosted deployment
• you need cutting-edge model performance beyond small local LLMs
