Kynora AI is a private AI workspace that runs entirely on your device. Chat with local AI models and get cited, page-accurate answers from your own documents. No cloud servers, no accounts, no telemetry: your conversations, documents and models stay on your own hardware.
TWO WAYS TO WORK
Chat: natural, multi-turn conversations with a local language model. Pick a domain persona (finance, legal, medical, technical and more) and a reasoning style, from quick lookups to deep analysis. Attach images to vision-capable models, or use reasoning models like Qwen3 and DeepSeek-R1.
Ask Docs: import PDFs, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, web pages, text and Markdown into a private knowledge base. Get grounded answers with citations to the exact page and section, powered by on-device hybrid search (semantic + keyword) and re-ranking. Optional OCR makes text inside embedded images searchable too.
BRING YOUR OWN MODEL
Choose from a curated catalog of open-source models, in GGUF or Apple's native MLX format, or import your own GGUF/MLX files. Kynora checks your device's memory and chip to recommend models that will run well. Already use Ollama? Connect your own Ollama server.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No analytics, tracking or telemetry
• No account, sign-in or email
• Documents and models stay in the app's sandboxed storage, never uploaded
• Network is used only to download models you choose, or reach an Ollama server you set up
• App Lock with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode
DESIGNED FOR REAL WORK
• Projects: group conversations with AI-generated summaries
• Full history with fast search; edit and resend messages; archive
• On-device dictation, read-aloud answers and hands-free voice mode
• Export chats as Markdown, text or JSON; back up and restore your chats

• Designed for iPhone and iPad, and also available on Mac
Your device. Your models. Your data. Nowhere else.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Import a single .gguf file directly with the + button. You no longer need to put it in a folder first.
Imported models now show their full name, instead of the folder name.
If an imported model uses an architecture Kynora AI doesn't support yet, you'll now see exactly which one, instead of a generic "try re-downloading" error.
A new Contact Support button lets you request support for that model in one tap.
Fixed an issue where some reasoning models showed their internal thinking in replies even with "Show thinking" turned off.
Better search quality when using imported embedding models in Ask Docs.
Bug fixes and stability improvements.
