@SsxChaos Of course - that’s a good question! Every project has a beginning, and this is the beginning of this one

Been working on it since November last year after I made a PR for OpenWebUI, as I realised that there wasn’t really a lightweight, cross-platform, open “client” for AI (and if there was I hadn’t been able to find it, since I really wanted one!)
So I started working on Compass for fun and kept going.

Now it’s pretty stable and polished and I’m ready to start letting people know about it - while I keep working on it and adding features

Feel free to try out the demo at compass-ai.chat where you can also read a bit more

@hayk Already there - models can be pulled inside the “Providers” section if you have Ollama added

But I’d like to make it more apparent and easier (perhaps accessible straight from the front page)

@semperverus Really appreciate the feedback - and I definitely agree that we need some competition

Yeah, overall I’m putting user experience high - it should be snappy, intuitive and robust

Thanks for the encouragement, and definitely keep an eye out for progress as I’m working on it every day

Hopefully I get Windows build working this week

@semperverus Damn, that’s crazy! Different technology but very similar aesthetic. I’m a bit jealous that they already have Windows and MacOS builds working - I’m struggling a bit with that but I know I’ll get there sooner or later ;)
