Paste your own Ollama API key — or use local mode with the Ollama on your computer, which needs no key at all.\n\nOnly in your browser. Our server never stores your messages or your key — and in local mode, requests never reach our servers at all. See the [privacy policy](/privacy).\n\nYes — choose “Use local Ollama” above and your browser connects straight to your local instance.
