BoltAI

BoltAI is a native macOS AI client for writers, marketers, developers, and researchers who want multiple LLM providers in a single desktop workspace.

Key capabilities include:

• Multi-model chat in one app: switch between providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral, Azure, Amazon Bedrock, and local models via Ollama (and LM Studio) without changing tools.
• Fast, native Mac experience: built with SwiftUI and AppKit, optimized for Apple Silicon, with Markdown and code block support, hotkeys, drag and drop, and theming.
• Multimodal and on-screen help: analyze screenshots, PDFs, code, and UI captures with vision-capable models, plus an inline, global shortcut workflow for quick edits and explanations.
• Tools and plugins: web search and web browsing plugins, image generation integrations, dictation and read-aloud, prompt library, and structured workflows (projects, multi-thread chats, chat forking, reusable agents).

Pricing: Paid (license purchase listed; token usage is separate via user-provided API keys). Essential $79/seat, Pro $99 for 2 seats + 1 mobile, Team Perpetual $99 per seat / year. Optional renewal: $79 per seat.

What makes it notable is its provider-agnostic desktop workflow with local-first privacy options (local chat storage, encrypted API keys, offline-capable local models) plus optional cloud sync across Mac, iPhone, and iPad.
