Buddhi AI: Initial Launch Release Notes

🚀 Introducing Buddhi AI: The Private, Browser-Based AI Suite

We are thrilled to announce the initial launch of Buddhi AI, a project built to redefine how users interact with artificial intelligence by prioritizing privacy and performance.

The core philosophy of Buddhi AI is simple: client-side processing. Unlike traditional server-side AI, Buddhi AI runs the model directly on your device and within your browser. This innovative approach ensures that your data never leaves your computer, making it inherently more secure and private.

🛡️ Privacy-First Technology

Buddhi AI is built upon the foundation of client-side AI, leveraging advanced capabilities to keep sensitive data local:

• Data Stays Local: All processing occurs on the user’s machine. Your short-term context, sensitive documents, and queries are not logged on remote servers.
• Core Technology: The platform utilizes Chrome’s Built-in AI APIs and supports local models like Gemini Nano for efficient on-device computation.
• Reduced Costs: By shifting the computational heavy-lifting from our servers to the user’s device, we dramatically cut down on inference costs, allowing us to offer powerful tools affordably.

🛠️ Initial Tool Collection (V0.1.0)

For the initial launch, we focused on three essential, high-value use cases that perfectly leverage on-device AI capabilities:

1. The Chat App: For quick queries, instant answers, and brainstorming sessions, ensuring casual questions are kept private.
2. The Summarizer: Efficiently condenses long-form content—such as articles, meeting notes, or research papers—into key bullet points or short paragraphs instantly and privately.
3. The Writer: Acts as a secure drafting assistant, helping users structure reports, draft emails, and improve existing text without compromising the security of their drafts.

💡 Moving Forward

This release marks the beginning of a larger vision. We believe that the best utility AI tools will run client-side, making AI faster, cheaper, and inherently more trustworthy. We plan to expand the Buddhi AI tool collection over the coming months to cover more high-value, client-side tasks, including translation and language detection.

Note: Users may need to enable Chrome Built-in AI to access the full functionality of Buddhi AI.
