Orb: Local AI Assistant

Falaq.ai

About this app

Orb is a local AI app for Android. No cloud, no account, no subscriptions. Your conversations stay on your device.

Most AI apps send every message to a remote server. Orb is different. It runs offline AI models directly on your phone, so your data does not need to leave your device. Use it on a plane, underground, in airplane mode, or anywhere with no signal. No Wi-Fi required after setup.

WHAT YOU GET

• Offline AI: Works without internet after a model is downloaded
• Private by design: Chats stay on your device, not synced to a cloud account
• No Account Required: No sign-up, email, API key, or login
• No Subscriptions: Free to use
• No Ads
• Works in airplane mode after setup

FEATURES

Orb runs local vision-language models that handle text and images fully on-device.

• Offline AI chat: Natural conversations without an internet connection
• Image analysis: Describe photos, read text from images, and answer visual questions locally
• Voice input via Whisper: Speak to Orb and transcribe speech on-device
• Private AI assistant: No server receives your messages
• Multiple local models: Choose from Qwen3-VL, MiniCPM-V, and Gemma models
• Automatic hardware detection: Orb uses supported NPU, GPU, or CPU paths for best available performance

Whether you need offline AI chat, a private assistant, or on-device AI that works without internet, Orb has you covered. No cloud AI subscription, no data harvesting, no hidden costs.

BUILT FOR PRIVACY

No cloud chat connection means your prompts and responses stay local. Privacy is not an add-on; it is how Orb works.

Most AI apps require an account, send your messages to remote servers, and retain conversation history. Orb does none of this. There is no account to hack and no cloud chat history to expose.

• Conversations stay on your phone
• No telemetry, analytics, or third-party crash reporting
• No network required after models are downloaded
• Useful for private writing, sensitive work, research, and journaling
• Data Safety: No data collected, no data shared
