Show HN: I built a cheaper ChatGPT alternative that runs on your desktop
We are also open source! I'm looking for feedback and feature ideas. We have some OS-level features ideas and are implementing those soon.
- bananapub 2y agoyou mean "I made a web app that invokes a local LLM someone else wrote"?
- ak8900 2y agosure, you can put it that way
- josefresco 2y agoThis is cool! I recommend every hacker play around with their own local LLM. For 90% of my "chatbot" needs, a local LLM is adequate. I use Ollama + Chatbox: https://chatboxai.app/ https://chatboxai.app/

- ak8900 2y agothanks!
- unsnap_biceps 2y agoGiven your (default) backend is ChatGPT, how is it a ChatGTP alternative?
- ak8900 2y agoGood point. Nyro uses ChatGPT's API but provides a cheaper, desktop-integrated interface. We're working on additional OS-level features and supporting other AI models too!
- Aristo1995 2y agoHello, this looks very interesting, however there is something that I don't understand, how do you manage to offer unlimited gpt4o for only 5 euros per month?
- ak8900 2y agoHi, we want to make it affordable for everyone and we plan to operate at breakeven at $5/month.
