Why offline

AI that doesn't depend on a connection

No cloud, no outage

Cloud AI dies the moment the signal does. PortableMind runs on the machine in front of you — on a plane, off-grid, or in the middle of an outage.

Private by default

Your conversations, documents, and voice never leave your hardware. No telemetry, no uploads, no account to create.

Pay once, own it

One USB, one payment. No subscription to cancel, no model quietly nerfed. It keeps working whether or not you ever update again.

Built forTravelersPrivacy-focused professionalsOutage & emergency prepField & remote workWriters & researchers
On every drive

Voice, vision, and a real desktop app

Firmware 1.5 ships with Voice, SCOUT Vision, Phone Access, a polished desktop-app launcher, Chat History, Import/Export, and hardened offline stability—all local, all private.

Chat, voice, and SCOUT accessible from one clean window.

FAQ

Common questions

Does it really work offline?+
Yes. The AI runs locally on your Windows 10/11 or macOS machine — no account, no cloud API key, no connection. Internet is only needed if you choose to download an optional update later.
What do I need to run it?+
A reasonably modern Windows 10/11 PC or Mac with at least 8 GB of RAM and a USB port. USB-C works fine with an adapter.
Is there a subscription or API key?+
No. You pay once for the PortableMind USB. The models run on your hardware with no recurring fees and no cloud keys.
What can it actually do?+
Chat, voice conversations, image and document recognition (SCOUT Vision), and phone access — all running locally on your machine with no internet required.
What's the difference between the tiers?+
CORE is the $49 Windows entry point: 4 models, chat, AES-256. v1.5 ($79) adds voice, SCOUT Vision, phone access, and macOS. MAX-SPEED ($129) is v1.5 on a 400 MB/s drive for faster boots and model switching.
