FreeGPT

A real AI, running entirely in your browser.
Free. Private. Zero data.

First time, FreeGPT downloads a ~1.2 GB model (best on Wi-Fi) — then it's instant and fully offline. It runs on your device; your conversations are never uploaded or saved.

What is FreeGPT?

FreeGPT is a real AI chat assistant that runs entirely in your browser, on your own hardware. There's no server doing the thinking and no company reading your chats — the model downloads to your device once, then everything happens locally. It chats, rewrites, translates, summarizes, explains, and looks up facts on Wikipedia when a question needs them.

Questions, answered

Is FreeGPT really free?

Completely. No account, no trial, no pro tier, no ads. The AI runs on your device, so there's no server bill — nothing to charge you for.

How is it private?

Your conversation never leaves your device and is never saved — close the tab and it's gone. The one exception: when a question needs a real fact, a short search query (just the query, never your chat) goes to Wikipedia.

How does an AI run inside a browser?

Modern browsers can tap your graphics chip through WebGPU. FreeGPT uses WebLLM to run Qwen3 (1.7B), an open-source language model, directly on it. The first visit downloads about 1.2 GB; after that it starts instantly.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Once the model is downloaded, FreeGPT runs with no internet at all. Only Wikipedia lookups need a connection.

Is it as good as ChatGPT?

No — and it doesn't pretend to be. It's a small model: great at everyday tasks like rewriting, translating, summarizing, explaining, and quick facts; weaker on long reasoning. What you get in exchange is total privacy and zero cost.

What do I need to run it?

A browser with WebGPU: Chrome or Edge on a computer, Chrome on Android, or Safari on iOS 18 and newer. A few GB of free storage for the model download.
