Vertigo, on your computer.
Vertigo runs on your machine, with our own engine. Free, works offline, and your conversations never leave your computer.

On your phone, nothing to install from a store
Open paradoxalai.vercel.app/chat on your phone, then Share → Add to Home Screen. Vertigo runs on the phone itself, full screen, and works offline once it has loaded.
PARADOXAL Code, in your terminal
The same coding agent as the Code tab, in any folder: it reads, proposes, and changes nothing without your yes. One command to install (it needs Node.js 22 or later). It can also talk to other models you already pay for, or to a local one.

First launch
Paradoxal is not signed by Apple or Microsoft yet, so your system warns you the first time.
- macOS: open Paradoxal once, then in System Settings → Privacy & Security, click Open Anyway.
- Windows: if SmartScreen appears, click More info, then Run anyway.
- Linux: make the AppImage executable (
chmod +x), then open it.
Private by design
Conversations are stored on your computer only. Vertigo speaks French for now, and it looks facts up instead of guessing.
