Reins just got powerful. Web search, tools, server and model management, cloud models, file attachments, and more.
Take the Reins of your AI.
Reins connects to your Ollama server and puts powerful local models in your pocket — with tools, web search, and full control over every conversation. No login. No data collection.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No login. No account. No data collection. Everything you chat stays yours.
TOOLS & WEB SEARCH
Go beyond chat. Reins gives models the ability to search the web, fetch pages, calculate and reason across multiple steps — no API key required for web search.
FULL MODEL CONTROL
Download, switch and manage your Ollama models directly from the app. Connect multiple servers, configure API keys and custom headers and switch between them instantly. Access Ollama Cloud when you need it.
POWERFUL CHAT
Attach images, PDFs, CSVs and text files to any conversation. Enable thinking mode for deeper reasoning when you need it. Branch chats to explore different paths without losing your original thread. Never lose a cut-off response, pick up exactly where it stopped. Export or back up your conversations anytime.
FINE-GRAINED CONTROL
Set a different system prompt for every conversation. Dial in temperature, context size, max tokens and more for precise control over model behavior.
Reins requires an Ollama server. Self-hosted or Ollama Cloud both work.

We have been utilizing this as both the front end and back in operations in AI and VI operations analytics within our infrastructure we have found that this has been a very exciting platform and tool that allows us to use existing infrastructure resources that are not to the general public, but at the same time balancing out public access in our processes operations in our research. I do recommend that if you’re going to utilize this in an environment that is in a corporate structure or research center that you allow this to run in your infrastructure that has the suitable configuration, including TPU and GPU included in the configuration inside the servers itself and have high speed storage interaction and connection connections that allow the process to collect the information necessary and then provide the most non-biased laboratory information and also will allow your team to create your own models as well. Done our initial research and development. Did this information allowed to be used and collect an invoice information other models within the system, but for security reasons and other aspects of this, we decided to disable dysfunction in our production side of our house however, in the research side on how it’s the best we still have it available but a production and more sensitive stuff because of security and the lack of guardrails and business ethics of those are outside the world of our development in ethics disabled this before it could be also used against us as well, but we get strong. Kudos to this platform and so thankful that it’s available.
It’s bonafide!

As a recent convert the localized models and Ollama I must say I’m a believer. Frankly, I’m probably lucky to have started now because the selection of models that can run in my Mac mini is impressive—already finding quality that matches or surpasses my personal Gemini 2.5 pro and pro research — which has been the best so far. Now I’m running local for free and with Reins I can extend this newfound freedom and security to have a pretty seamless experience from clouds to home. Thank you. You are honored for making this and giving it away
Exceptional

I’m not sure if i’ve ever written a review but I want to here. It’s a very professional looking app that gives me a solution i’ve been looking for for awhile - using my locally hosted AI in a package similar to the chatgpt app. My only complaint is that when it’s writing the response, the screen sort of jitters up and down if you try and scroll up to read while it’s still going. That is the only issue I’ve had. Bravo!
Really good so far

It’s really good so far, fast once you have a good Ollama setup and love having an app finally. Needs a more work with features like being able to delete chats once done, if you have multiple models being able to make one a default and possibly even adding your own cloud name like what OpenWebui allows. Hopefully it gets there but for now it’s a solid app.
Reins V2 is here.
