Features

Everything a desktop agent should do

Built for real work, not just chat. Every tool runs on your machine, under your control.

Agentic tools

Read, write and patch files; run commands in a persistent shell; search the web; get compiler diagnostics; open apps.

Git, built in

Branch, stage, diff, commit and review changes without leaving the app — through your own git config.

Per-hunk review

Every edit is shown as a diff. Untick the hunks you don't want and only the rest is written.

Checkpoints

Each turn backs up the files it touches, so “Undo last turn” is one click — no broken projects.

Browser & terminal

A website panel the AI can read and drive, and a terminal docked in the UI, both resizable.

Background jobs

Start a dev server or watcher, tail its log across commands, and stop it when you're done.

Plugins (MCP)

A store of known MCP servers — filesystem, GitHub, databases, Puppeteer — installed in one click.

Vision

Screenshot the screen or load an image and ask about it. “What's wrong with this UI?”

⟨/⟩

Prompt library

Reusable prompts and templates, inserted with / right in the composer.

Agents

Your own AI agent team

Not one chatbot for everything — named roles, parallel work, and a record of what was done.

  • Named agents. Personas with their own prompts, models and temperature.
  • Dispatch. Fan a task out to several sub-agents at once and merge their reports.
  • Living plan. Multi-step work shows a plan with a progress bar until it's finished.
  • Runs panel. Every run recorded — steps, tokens, and the full report.
  • Skills. Reusable procedures the agent loads on demand when a task matches.
Living memory

It remembers, and it explains itself

Memory isn't a searchable chat history. It builds and reorganizes itself from every conversation — and you approve what stays.

  • Builds itself. After each reply it proposes durable facts, preferences, tastes and relationships.
  • You approve. Nothing is remembered until you accept it — or turn on auto-approve.
  • Self-organizing. Consolidate merges near-duplicates; pin a fact so it never merges away.
  • Provenance. Every memory shows the exact chat and snippet it came from.
  • Honest. It's context that improves with use — it doesn't re-train a model, and we won't pretend it does.
Collaborative projects

Bring the project, not your whole account

Work with other people and their own assistants in one shared space. Only what you choose to contribute leaves your machine.

  • Group + private threads. A shared conversation, and your own space inside it.
  • Private work, public summary. What you settle in private posts a short summary to the group.
  • Ship and review. A member ships a change; you see who made it and click Save or Discard.
  • End-to-end encrypted. The relay only ever holds ciphertext — it cannot read your project.
  • Sandbox mode. Try the whole flow on one PC before anyone else joins.
Models

Bring your own models — all of them

21 providers, one click each. OpenAI-compatible everywhere, with automatic transport fallback. No middleman.

FAQ

Good to know

Where do my conversations go?

Into a SQLite database on your PC (%APPDATA%\\com.pocketgpt.desktop). Nothing is uploaded to us — there is no “us”.

Do I need an API key?

For cloud models, yes — your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or OpenCode key, stored in Windows Credential Manager. For local models, no: run Ollama or LM Studio and PocketGPT talks to them.

What is living memory, really?

A small, curated set of durable facts that PocketGPT builds from your conversations and you approve. It improves the context of every reply — it does not fine-tune or retrain any model.

Can it edit my code safely?

Yes. Edits are shown as a per-hunk diff before they run, every turn is checkpointed so you can undo it, and the Git panel lets you review before committing.

How does collaboration work?

Create a project with a passphrase. Work stays on each machine until someone ships it; the other member reviews and accepts. Everything on the relay is encrypted end to end.

Is it free?

The app is. You only pay your model provider for what you use — or nothing at all with a local model.
