About IntelliBar
IntelliBar is a macOS AI assistant that provides no-subscription access to the latest AI models from OpenAI (GPT-4o, o1, o3 mini), Anthropic (Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Claude 3.5 Haiku), Google (Gemini 2.0 Pro, Flash, Flash Thinking), xAI (Grok 2, Grok 3 soon), Meta (Llama 3.2/3.3), DeepSeek (R1, V3), Perplexity (sonar models), and local models via Ollama — all from a single interface. It can be summoned instantly with a keyboard shortcut (⇧⌘Space) and features smart completions that auto-fill prompts, a command menu (⌘K), instant search across conversations (⌘O), and the ability to compare responses from multiple models side by side. Custom slash commands allow quick reuse of common prompts. Privacy is a core focus: chat history stays on your device, IntelliBar communicates directly with AI providers without any middleman, and API data is not used for training. The app is 100% user funded with no subscription, no usage limits, and no ads.
