A downloadable AI Dev Assistant

Core Demo COMING SOON 


πŸ› οΈ What is The FriedrichAI?


FriedrichAI is a self-contained AI environment that brings large language model power straight to your desktop — no API keys, no accounts, no tracking. It's designed for indie devs, tinkerers, writers, and anyone who wants total creative control with zero dependencies.


Inside the box:

πŸ’¬ Offline Chat Assistant — ask questions, get help, write code, debug

πŸ–ΌοΈ Image Generation — create concept art, icons, backgrounds (Omni 2.5)

🎧 Speech-to-Text (Whisper) — talk to your AI, voice commands, transcription

πŸ’‘ Memory & Graft System — persistent memory, emotional state, personality

πŸ”§ Godot Engine Integration — build & test game projects locally.

πŸ” Runs Locally, Stays Local — privacy-first; no online calls or phone-home

🧠 Friedrich is a trainable AI. He doesn't just run offline — he learns from you. Feed him your project files, documentation, or bootcamp materials, and he adapts. Want help with Godot? Python? Unreal Engine? He learns what you teach him. Over time, he evolves to fit your workflow — not the other way around.

🧷 FAQ

> Will there be any DRM?

No. We have decided that using DRM not only defeats the purpose of what we are trying to do, it's a betrayal to our user base. We hope that trust isn't misplaced. 

> Is this ChatGPT offline?

No. But it's based on a high-end local model with similar capabilities — and in some cases, more flexibility.

> Will you switch models later?

Yes. The current model is Omni 2.5; the final release will upgrade to Omni 3 or equivalent. You’ll be able to choose which model to run.


> Can I use it without internet?

Yes. Once installed, everything runs locally. Internet is only needed to download the initial model.


> Can I run it on Steam Deck?

No. It’s not compatible or supported on Steam Deck due to hardware limits.
