KernelAI - Offline AI Chat

About this app

<p>ON-DEVICE AI</p>
<p>Downloaded compatible models run locally on your device. KernelAI checks model compatibility and memory needs before you download, so you can choose a model that fits your iPhone or iPad.</p>
<p>CHAT WITH DOCUMENTS</p>
<p>Ask questions about PDFs, DOCX, CSV, Markdown, and text files. Summarize, search, and find useful passages with on-device document chat.</p>
<p>UNDERSTAND IMAGES</p>
<p>Attach a photo, screenshot, chart, or diagram and ask what it shows with a compatible vision model. Image analysis runs on-device.</p>
<p>50+ MODEL OPTIONS</p>
<p>Choose from 50+ models, including Llama, Gemma, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, Phi, and more. Import compatible GGUF models from Files, URLs, or your local network.</p>
<p>WRITE, LEARN, AND CODE</p>
<p>Use local models for writing, brainstorming, explanations, and code. Generate, explain, and review code with models selected for programming.</p>
<p>CUSTOMIZE YOUR AI</p>
<p>Set a system prompt and generation parameters for each model. See tokens-per-second, context usage, and generated thinking output from supported reasoning models.</p>
<p>VOICE, SIRI, AND SHORTCUTS</p>
<p>Dictate prompts with voice input. Ask KernelAI from Siri or build it into Shortcuts on supported iOS versions. On supported iOS 26 devices, Apple's built-in on-device model can answer in the background; downloaded models may open KernelAI while they run.</p>
<p>ORGANIZE YOUR WORK</p>
<p>Keep conversations in folders, search your history, branch a chat, edit or regenerate messages, and export your work. Use KernelAI on iPhone and iPad, including from the Share Sheet and Home Screen widget.</p>
<p>OPTIONAL WEB SEARCH</p>
<p>Turn on web search when you need current information. Add your own Tavily or Exa API key; web search is off by default. Provider fees may apply.</p>
<p>Everything currently available is free. There is no Pro tier or subscription.</p>
