Meet Colloqio, the revolutionary AI companion that runs 100% on your device. No cloud servers, no data collection, complete privacy. Your personal AI that remembers you, works offline, and keeps your conversations truly private. Coming soon to iOS.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built Colloqio as a bit of an experiment—I wanted to see just how far I could push on-device AI. Could I create a genuinely useful AI chat experience that runs entirely on your phone, with no internet connection needed?
Turns out, you can get pretty far. The app runs lightweight language models locally, which means:
Complete privacy — your conversations never leave your device
Works anywhere — no WiFi, no mobile data, no problem
No ongoing costs — no API calls, no subscriptions eating into your wallet
It's not trying to replace ChatGPT for complex tasks, but for quick questions, brainstorming, or just having a capable AI assistant when you're offline (flights, remote areas, or just saving data), it does the job surprisingly well.
I'd love to hear what you think, and I'm curious—what would you use an offline AI assistant for? Any features you'd want to see added?
Happy to answer any questions about the tech or the build process!
great concept , I was curious how you were able to get the bundle size so small , do you download the model after i nstall or is the model part of the bundle ?
How about for android? I like the on device idea, great job.
I think on-device AI is the future. Great idea. What are the minimum requirements for a device to run this?
Congrats on the launch. Have you created this AI companion for general purpose or targeting any vertical.
The whole privacy first, no internet angle is exactly what we need more of. Excited to see where you take this! Quick question: which models are you running in the background?
running LLMs locally is usually a massive power drain, so getting this to work smoothly on a phone is impressive. How gentle is the app on battery life during long conversational sessions compared to standard cloud-based apps?
Better if it will use voice commands only and talk to you like a support person.
Congrats on the launch on-device AI is a strong angle. I noticed one spot where first-time users might pause around setup/expectations. Happy to share a concrete example if useful.
Really cool! What’s the biggest limitation users should expect from offline models?
