Intelligence that survives the grid going dark
DarkGrid AI is a desktop app that runs a language model on your own machine and answers from an offline copy of Wikipedia and your own reference folders. Every answer cites its sources. No account, no cloud, no connection.

Capabilities
Zero-knowledge by design
No server ever sees your data. There's no account and no telemetry, and nothing you type or store leaves your machine — so there is simply nothing for us, or anyone else, to read.
Works with no internet
After a one-time model and knowledge download, everything runs offline. Disconnect entirely and DarkGrid AI keeps answering.
Local inference
Runs language models entirely on your own device. No cloud, no API keys, and no background daemon phoning home.
Offline knowledge base
A full offline copy of Wikipedia (Kiwix ZIM full-text search) alongside your own reference folders — PDFs, notes, and documents you add.
Answers cite their sources
Retrieval-augmented answers merge Wikipedia and your references, with inline [S#] citations and a sources panel you can open.
Pick a model in the app
Choose a model from the catalog and it downloads automatically. Resumable, one-time, and fully managed — no terminal required.
Field Deployment
Download and install
Get the free app for macOS, Windows, or Linux and open it. No account or setup required.
Pick a model and knowledge
Choose a model from the catalog and download an offline copy of Wikipedia, then add folders of your own documents as references.
Ask offline
Disconnect and ask anything. Every answer is grounded in your knowledge base with inline citations.
Keep your knowledge close.
