Vyact, an open-source desktop app for making local LLMs useful at work, seeks feature ideas
vyact · reddit · 2026-09-07
A developer is building Vyact, an open-source desktop app aimed at making local LLMs genuinely useful for everyday work. It works with local files, notes, and projects, and ships a Chrome extension that taps your local model for rewriting, grammar correction, summarization, and style changes.
The author is asking Reddit which features or workflows would actually matter for daily use given current local model capabilities and limits — a useful signal for what real users want from local-first AI tools.
