ChatWise is a fast, privacy-friendly desktop AI chatbot client that connects to multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Ollama) using your own API keys or existing subscriptions. It supports multi-modal chat with files, images, audio, and PDFs, plus web search, artifacts rendering, and MCP tool integrations, with all data stored locally.

Use cases

  • chat with gpt-4 claude and gemini in one desktop app
  • use my own api keys with an ai chat client
  • chat with pdfs images and audio files using llms
  • run a local ai chatbot that works offline with ollama
  • connect ai to tools like notion and google sheets via mcp
  • search the web from an ai chat interface
  • use claude pro or github copilot subscription in a better chat ui
  • text to speech for ai chat responses

When to choose

  • you want a single desktop client for multiple LLM providers with your own keys
  • you need multi-modal chat with PDFs, images, and audio
  • privacy matters and you want chat history stored locally
  • you want MCP tool integration and web search in a chat app

When to avoid

  • you need a mobile app (not yet released)
  • you want a fully free open-source solution without a pro license for advanced features
  • you need team collaboration or cloud sync of chat history
