Credentials. Your API keys are stored in the app; use keys with spending limits and revoke them if a device is lost.
Who it is forSomeone paying for several AI tools who is tired of juggling browser tabs and logins.
The problemEach model lives in its own website with its own history, so comparing answers is clumsy.
The outcomeOne desktop app with all your models, chat history stored locally on your device.
What you need first
- Windows 10 x64, macOS 11 or later, or Ubuntu 20.04+ / AppImage distros
- An API key for a cloud provider, or Ollama for local models
- To build from source: Node.js and pnpm
Steps
- Download the installer for your platform from the releases page
- Install and launch Chatbox
- Configure your AI provider, such as OpenAI or Claude, in settings
- Start chatting and switch providers per conversation
- Save prompts you reuse in the Prompt Library
Prompt for your agent
Help me set up chatboxai/chatbox on <OS> with my OpenAI and Claude API keys. Then show me how to save <prompt> in the Prompt Library and run it on both models.
Caveat. You pay each provider for API usage separately; Chatbox itself does not include model credits.
