LocalIntelligence - Your Private AI Assistant
LocalIntelligence is a powerful application that brings the power of large language models directly to your desktop through Ollama. Chat with AI models privately and securely—everything runs locally on your device, with no cloud dependency or data sharing.
Core Features
Ollama Integration
Connect seamlessly to your local Ollama instance. Browse and select from all your installed models, with automatic detection of model capabilities including vision, tools, thinking, and embedding support. Each model displays detailed runtime information including quantization level, context window size, and default generation parameters.
Vision Support
Vision-capable models can analyze images. Simply drag and drop an image onto the photo icon or use the file picker to attach photos, screenshots, or graphics. Ask questions about what you see, extract text, analyze diagrams, or get creative descriptions—all processed locally on your device.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) Integration
Extend your AI's capabilities with MCP tools. Connect to TCP/IP MCP servers. Tools are automatically discovered and made available to compatible models, enabling your AI to fetch real-time data, perform calculations, access APIs, and interact with external services. The app handles tool execution, result processing, and multi-turn conversations seamlessly.
Fine-Tuned Control
Adjust generation parameters on the fly with an intuitive interface:
• Temperature: Control randomness and creativity (0.0 - 2.0)
• Top P: Nucleus sampling for vocabulary focus
• Top K: Limit token choices for consistency
• Seed: Set fixed seeds for reproducible outputs
Performance Monitoring
Track model performance with detailed metrics (optional verbose mode):
• Prompt evaluation speed (tokens/second)
• Generation speed (tokens/second)
• Context window usage with visual indicator
• Load times and total duration
Conversation Management
• Export conversations in plain text or Markdown format
• Copy to clipboard or save as files
• Clear conversations with confirmation dialogs
• Context window tracking prevents truncation issues
• Model switching automatically clears conversations to prevent confusion

• Keyboard shortcuts and native controls
• Smooth animations and transitions
• Efficient memory usage
Privacy & Security
• 100% local processing - no data leaves your Mac
• No telemetry or tracking
• Your conversations stay private

Added a slider in the General pane of the Settings window to define the default context window size that applies to all models. Previously, this value could only be set on a per model basis.
