setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
> I would only use this (or any ai) self-hosted if it works 100% offline.

Well this is absolutely possible with ollama app running on your device and self-host package running on localhost.

> Which makes me ask a question: what rights would I have to modify this software, per your license?

Permission to deploy and use compiled code only, no modification, redistribution, sharing or reselling.

Thanks for the feedback!

Open sourcing documentation is an interesting idea.

> Something along the line Set the environment variable OLLAMA_ORIGINS

I'll test it out and update the docs.

> Ask -> answer, no more steps, that is the core value of ChatGPT or AI.

This is the absolutely ideal state of the product, i agree.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Thank you for the feedback!

I'm planning to release more videos, stay tuned.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Thank you!

I would love if we had some kind of 'open-build' methodology so those projects not willing to open the source but are willing to perform any kind of necessary audit against the build, just a thought.

Thank you!

> Will the Self-host package include source (i.e. source available) or is it just the transpiler output?

No sources, just a folder with compiled assets that you can run on a static server. This is already available.

> Also, is there (or plan to be) support for postgres or other database for persistence?

Yes there are plans for local pg

Thanks!

> Are there keyboard shortcuts for all the operations shown?

For now yes, what would you like to be added?

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Not far off, some days i would say.

Yes it's a wrapper with opted-out sentry and vercel analitycs, just like self-host package.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Desktop app is coming soon and self-host option is already available as a part of Extended License.

I have no plans to open source it at the moment, but it would be great to come up with something like 'open build' for cases like that.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Thank you!

Like I mentioned earlier for me the app is canvas-based first, node-based second. So connections are a tool, a visual tool to craft or manage prompt to then feed it to LLM. Canvas is a visual tool to organize and keep large amounts of chats.

I try use LLM not for the sake of chatting, but to get results and those tools seem to help me with that.

Hope that makes sense.

Thank you!

> What does "premium support" mean?

Premium option includes prioritized support and access to new features that might be unavailable for other types of licenses.

I will update the website for more clarity.

> How would I go about if I want to self-host it for a small team of like 14 people

> Should I buy licenses for 14 (3x extended) instances

Yes that should work. Each license comes with 5 seat/activations. Each seat has its own copy of the data.

Great stuff! That deterministic "next step" is the last line of defense for us humans :)
setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
Great questions!

> In your case, do you hold N contexts (N being the number of leaves in the tree)?

It depends, contexts are just a form of grouping

> Are the chats disconnected from each other? > How do you propose to transition from an endless/unstructured canvas to some sort of a finished, organized deliverable?

RAG with in-app commands, i'm working on a local RAG solution, it's early but promising. Basically chat with all your data and applying a wide range of command on it.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
No but I'm a frequent visitor, i love the mountains there!
setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
> I'd be more interested in a tool where I can "add data" to it by drag and drop or folder import, then I can just type whatever prompt and the app's RAG system pulls relevant data/previous

This is something very similar to what i'm planning to add next, so stick around.

setnone··on Show HN: I built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT
For me this interface is canvas-based first, node-based second, meaning sometimes I might not even use connections to get my desired result from LLM but i have the place and form for the result and i know how to find it. Connections here are not set in stone like in mind mapping software for example, it's a tool.

Thanks! Self-host package comes with Extended license

> I would get tired of dragging nodes around

Me personally i find value in taking my time to organize and drag around, probably because i'm a visual thinker

Those must be Sentry

Yes, search is one of my favorite features here, try '/' shortcut

This is my daily GPT driver, so for almost anything from research to keeping my snippets tidy and well organized. I use voice input a lot to take my time and form my thoughts and requests, text-to-speech to listen for answers too.
setnone··on Show HN: I made a privacy friendly visual notebook for conversational AI
Hey HN,

I built this out of frustration of the evergrowing list of AI models and features to try and to fit my workflow.

It's local-first and works right in the browser, no sign up needed and it's absolutely free to try.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, any feedback is appreciated!

setnone··on Ask HN: Not a personal assistant, but a manager to get things done?
Sounds like a give-a-shit-as-a-service. I would try.
setnone··on Ask HN: How are you using GenAI/LLMs?
> code snippets, basic research, summarization and image generation

This matches my use cases, I use OpenAI via API Key (mostly GPT-4 and whisper-1) and Llama 3 via Ollama which is decent for text tasks and free.

> What does your workflow look like?

> but more often than not I find myself either double checking sources or tweaking the end results

To ease up tweaking the results and scratch my own itch i'm building grafychat[1].
