Models

The right model. For the task at hand.

Start with a lightweight model for everyday use. Switch when you need to work with images, code or a longer conversation.

Apple Intelligence

For writing, summaries and conversation. Use the model provided by your system when available, without downloading it through Lapis.

Open models with MLX

Download a compatible model and use it offline. Compare size and capabilities before choosing. PRO lets you import compatible models from Hugging Face.

Uncensored models

With PRO, import compatible uncensored variants from Hugging Face. Choose your model and its instructions. Capabilities and restrictions depend on the model and available memory.

Availability depends on your device, system and memory. Apple Intelligence is not available on every device.

More room.
More possibilities.

Your conversations and projects, in a native Mac app. More memory to work with more powerful models.

You can tell when an app is made with care.

A picture can be a question, too.

Understand a photo, extract text from a document or ask about what you see. With PRO and a compatible vision model.

Your work isn’t locked in.

Take the conversation with you as PDF, Markdown or text. Share text from another app to start a chat.

A place for each project.

With PRO, group chats into projects and create agents with their own tone and instructions.

A shortcut for everyday tasks.

Summarise, translate or ask with Siri and Shortcuts. No need to open the app when the system model is available; other workflows open Lapis.
