## What it is
A cross-platform desktop ChatGPT client built with Tauri, Vue 3, and Arco Design that wraps the OpenAI GPT-3.5-turbo API. It offers a fast global hotkey launcher, multiple conversations with memory, prompt/role preset management, proxy configuration, and local history storage.

## Use cases
- chat with gpt-3.5 from my desktop with a hotkey
- lightweight chatgpt app for mac windows and linux
- manage reusable prompt presets and role personas
- use chatgpt behind a proxy or restricted network
- keep local conversation history for privacy
- run multiple chatgpt conversations with memory

## When to choose
- you want a fast, low-resource native desktop ChatGPT client on macOS, Windows, or Linux
- you need quick hotkey access to an AI assistant while working
- you want prompt/role preset management and multi-conversation support
- you prefer local history storage and configurable proxy settings

## When to avoid
- you need GPT-4 or newer OpenAI models, since it targets GPT-3.5-turbo
- you want a web-based or mobile ChatGPT experience
- you need actively developed features - the last release was mid-2023 and development appears stalled
- you require enterprise features like team accounts or SSO
