Witsy is a cross-platform desktop AI assistant built with Electron and Vue 3 that lets users chat with many LLM providers using their own API keys or local Ollama models. It doubles as a universal MCP client, allowing MCP servers to be used with virtually any LLM, and includes image/video generation, speech features, and prompt-anywhere commands.

Use cases

  • chat with multiple llm providers from one desktop app
  • run mcp servers with any llm
  • use ollama models locally in a chat gui
  • generate images and videos from text prompts
  • dictate speech to text and read answers aloud
  • run ai commands on highlighted text in any application
  • bring your own api keys byok assistant
  • search the web with llm augmented answers

When to choose

  • you want one desktop app for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Groq and more
  • you need MCP tool support with models that lack native MCP
  • you prefer local models via Ollama or LM Studio
  • you want speech-to-text, TTS, and image generation alongside chat

When to avoid

  • you need a headless or server-side API rather than a GUI app
  • you want a fully managed service without supplying your own API keys
  • you only need a lightweight terminal or CLI chat client
