What you get
All the convenience of a ChatGPT-style interface, but the data, the prompts, and the conversation history all live on hardware you control.
Self-hosted
Runs on a Linux VM under Proxmox. Conversations, files, and prompts stay on the server — not on someone else's cloud.
Access to top models
Talk to Claude Opus, GPT-5, Llama 3, and others through one chat UI. Switch between models mid-conversation.
Private by default
No tracking, no shared accounts. Cloudflare Tunnel + login required — no inbound ports open on your network.
API pricing, not subscription
Pay per token via Anthropic and OpenAI APIs — usually cheaper than monthly ChatGPT/Claude.ai subscriptions for moderate use.
What's under the hood
An open-source stack that anyone can audit, fork, or replicate.
- Open WebUISelf-hosted ChatGPT-style chat interface. Open source.
- Anthropic APIClaude Opus, Sonnet, Haiku — for reasoning and writing.
- OpenAI APIGPT-5 and family — for coding and tool use.
- OllamaLocal model runner — for fully air-gapped queries.
- Proxmox + LinuxVM host on bare-metal hardware, hosted locally.
- Cloudflare TunnelSecure inbound access without exposing the server publicly.
About the data. Conversation history, uploaded files, and your prompt library live on the server — not on a third-party cloud. When you query a cloud model (Claude or GPT), that single request transits Anthropic's or OpenAI's API; both companies' commercial API terms say they don't train on API traffic and delete it within 30 days. For truly air-gapped queries, use a local model via Ollama — those never leave the box.
