About
Vinaa is a native Mac app for chatting with cloud and local AI models in one organized workspace. Connect OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other supported providers with your own API keys, or use Ollama and LM Studio.

From the founder
About me
“I built Vinaa because my AI chats were spread across different apps and browser tabs. I wanted one place to organize them into projects, keep files and prompts together, and switch models without losing my work. I also wanted a native Mac app that could bring cloud providers and local models into the same workspace while keeping conversation history on my Mac. Vinaa is the app I wanted for returning to useful AI conversations and continuing where I left off.”
