Desktop AI chat assistants
This cluster consists of desktop applications that provide conversational access to AI models, often supporting multiple assistants, agents, or multimodal inputs. Dated entries trickle in sporadically from April 2023 through May 2026, with no clear accelerating trend. Among members with activity signals, attra leads with 9 stars, followed by deepseek-desktop with 6 and YashvirGaming-AI with 2.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 11 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
