## What it is
NativeMind is an open-source browser extension that provides a fully private, on-device AI assistant by connecting to local LLMs via Ollama (with trial WebLLM support). It works in Chrome and Firefox and includes AI agent capabilities for autonomous, multi-step task execution without sending data to the cloud.

## Use cases
- chat with local llms in my browser without cloud
- private chatgpt alternative that runs offline
- browser extension that uses ollama
- on-device ai assistant for chrome and firefox
- summarize or ask questions about web pages privately
- run ai agent tasks locally without tracking

## When to choose
- you want an AI assistant in the browser with zero data leaving your machine
- you already run Ollama and want browser integration
- you need an open-source, auditable alternative to cloud chatbots
- you want offline AI usage with no subscription or rate limits

## When to avoid
- you need the most powerful frontier models only available via cloud APIs
- your machine cannot run local LLMs comfortably
- you need Edge or other browsers beyond Chrome and Firefox
- you want managed hosting with no local setup
