Tool Information

PyGPT is a free, open-source desktop AI assistant for Windows, Linux and macOS, written in Python. It connects to cloud models from OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, DeepSeek, Perplexity, Hugging Face and other OpenAI-compatible APIs, or runs local models such as Llama, Qwen and Mistral through Ollama. Beyond chat, it offers multi-agent workflows with portable skills, LlamaIndex-based retrieval over files, websites and past conversations, Python and system command execution with sandbox or Docker support, MCP connectors, scheduled tasks, realtime voice, image analysis and image or video generation, plus built-in tools such as a notepad, painter and calendar.

PyGPT suits developers, researchers and power users who want one configurable desktop app for many models and tools. Because it can run code and system commands, users should enable those features carefully. AI answers can be wrong and should be verified. Nothing was tested for this listing.

The homepage describes PyGPT as free and open source, with source code on GitHub, and lists version 2.9.1 as the latest release. Users supply their own API keys, so usage costs are billed by the chosen providers, while local models can run without external keys. The terms say the app is provided as is and is intended for users aged 13 and over.
