Privane Browser Intelligence

Private on-device browser AI. Chat, research, and page Q&A — or connect Ollama. Your prompts stay on your machine.

Your private AI workspace — in the browser. Privane is a side-panel assistant that runs on your machine. Summarize pages, research topics, chat with the current tab, and keep a personal knowledge vault. Prompts, pages, and conversations are not sent to a cloud AI API. You choose how it runs: Download the Brain — install Gemma once (~1.9 GB). It stays on this device and runs on your GPU with WebGPU. Connect Ollama — point Privane at Ollama you already run and pick a compatible model such as Gemma 4 E2B. Faster on many desktops. No 1.9 GB browser download. No API keys. No per-token bills. After the model is local, chat works without a cloud LLM. Why people install Privane Private by default. The model runs on your hardware. Ideal for confidential work, drafts, and anything you would not paste into a public chatbot. The page is the context. Ask about the tab you are on. Highlight text to summarize, explain, rewrite, or follow up — without leaving the page. A second brain, not just a chat box. Save memories, pin what matters, and find it later with keyword or semantic search. Organize longer work in projects and a daily journal. Works the way you browse. Open the panel from any site. Capture an idea, start a research run, or talk to the current page without breaking flow. Features 100% local inference WebGPU in the browser, or Ollama on your machine. Once the model is ready, you can chat without sending prompts to a hosted LLM. Browser-aware AI Ask about the current page. Search bookmarks. Work with open tabs and history in natural language (Agent, Pro). Personal memory (Knowledge Vault) Store preferences, research notes, ideas, tasks, people, and sites in IndexedDB. Pin important items. Search by keyword or meaning. Deep research (Pro) Turn the web into a briefing. Privane plans searches, fetches sources, and opens a report you can cancel mid-run. In-line actions (Pro) Highlight text on any page to summarize, explain, rewrite, or ask a follow-up — plus quick-add to memory or a project. Workspace & journal (Pro) Projects and clarifying questions for long-running topics. A daily timeline you can compile and export. Quick access One click from the toolbar. Side panel stays with you as you move between tabs.
