Nomad AI: Intelligent Assist

About this app

<p>Nomad AI: Intelligent Assistance Anywhere—Even Offline</p>
<p>Nomad AI is a private, on-device AI assistant powered by Meta Llama 3.2. Every conversation stays on your device — no servers, no data collection, no internet required after the initial model download. When you're on your home network, Nomad AI automatically connects to your local Ollama server to leverage your desktop's more powerful models.</p>
<p>Why Choose Nomad AI?</p>
<p>Complete privacy. Zero compromise.</p>
<p>Fully private — Your conversations, documents, and notes never leave your device or local network<br />
Works offline — Perfect for travel, remote work, or when you want to disconnect<br />
Document Library — Import PDFs, scan documents with your camera, paste text, or add photos to a searchable knowledge base organized into collections<br />
Document Q&A mode — Ask questions grounded strictly in your own documents, eliminating hallucinations for research and reference use<br />
Smart Notes — A built-in scratchpad with full Markdown rendering to capture and format ideas on the go<br />
iCloud Sync — Keep your conversation history in sync across all your Apple devices<br />
Ollama integration — Automatically discovers and connects to your locally running Ollama server over WiFi<br />
Model auto-detection — Seamlessly switches between your local on-device model and powerful Ollama models as you move between WiFi and offline<br />
OpenAI support — Optionally add your own OpenAI API key for access to cloud models when connected<br />
Web search — Optional live search integration to ground answers in current information<br />
Custom AI personality — Tailor the assistant's behavior and tone with custom system prompts<br />
Markdown support — Beautifully rendered responses with code blocks, lists, and formatting<br />
One-tap copy — Copy any response in a single tap<br />
Document Library</p>
<p>Import and organize your knowledge base into named collections — work contracts, research notes, product docs, travel guides, anything. Import from PDF, camera scan (OCR), photos, plain text, or files (.txt, .md, .csv, .docx). Enable Document Q&A mode to restrict the AI to answering only from your imported content, ideal for accurate, source-grounded responses.</p>
<p>Perfect For:</p>
<p>Writing and brainstorming on the go<br />
Coding assistance while traveling or at your desk<br />
Researching without internet — ask questions against your own document library<br />
Private note-taking with Markdown formatting<br />
Reliable AI support in remote areas with zero connectivity<br />
Leveraging your desktop's powerful Ollama models on mobile<br />

Your Data, Your Control</p>
<p>Unlike cloud-based AI assistants, Nomad AI processes everything locally — on your device or through your own Ollama server. Your conversations, documents, and notes are never transmitted to any external service unless you explicitly enable an optional integration like OpenAI.</p>
<p>Experience intelligent assistance that's private, portable, and powerful — online or off.</p>
