What is Jan?

Jan is an open-source, privacy-first AI chat application and autonomous agent that runs 100% offline on desktop and mobile. Designed as a user-controlled alternative to ChatGPT, Jan lets you download and run local models (Llama3, Gemma3, Mistral, GGUF), or connect to cloud providers via API keys. With a VSCode-like extension system, an OpenAI-compatible local API server, and in-house models like Jan‑v2 (multimodal) and Jan‑v1 (with web search), Jan delivers long-horizon task automation, multimodal reasoning, and complete data ownership.
