ChatBastion

A private AI assistant that runs local models on your own PC.

What it is

ChatBastion in a paragraph

ChatBastion runs open language models on your own hardware and keeps every conversation on your disk. Ask it about your documents, draft and rewrite text, summarise long files, and switch models depending on the job and the PC. Nothing is sent to a server, and there is no monthly fee.

Planned for the first release

  • Runs open models locally on CPU or GPU; picks a size that fits the PC
  • Chat with your own documents and folders without uploading them
  • Drafting, rewriting, summarising and translating
  • Conversation history stored locally and searchable
  • Model manager: download, verify, update and remove models
  • No account, no usage limits, no telemetry

This page describes what we intend to build. There is nothing to download yet, and we do not take pre-orders. When ChatBastion is ready it will be listed as available on the products page. Have a job in mind for it? Tell us through the feedback form.
