Zeltro
Build apps with the AI you already pay for
Zeltro is a desktop app for building and running apps on your own computer. It doesn't sell AI. You plug in the key or plan you already have (Claude, ChatGPT, OpenRouter) or a free local model, and pay the provider's own price with no markup or credits. Describe an app or pick from 214 ready made ones, and your AI builds it right next to your other projects. Free for personal use.
Hey everyone! I run a little computer repair shop and build web apps on the side. I tried the hosted AI app builders and kept hitting the same thing: they resell the same Claude and GPT models as credits, and the bill climbs fast once you have a few apps going.
So I built Zeltro. It runs on your own computer and sells no AI at all. You use the API key or AI plan you already pay for, or run a free local model with Ollama, and you pay the provider's own price. All your projects sit in one list, they share one database, and your AI works in a terminal right next to each one.
For a freelancer with three live apps it comes out around $30 a month, against $66 to $379 on the hosted builders.
The desktop app is free for personal use, and businesses pay once for a license. The command line tool underneath is open source. It's in beta, so I'd love honest feedback.
