OVO

OVO is a local AI workspace for Apple Silicon Macs, built to keep code and conversations on-device instead of sending them to the cloud. Its Code view combines an editor, a file explorer, a git panel and a terminal with an agent chat that has file read, write, search and execution tools and Model Context Protocol integration, so it can act on a project rather than only describe changes.

Also included are a chat interface compatible with the Ollama and OpenAI APIs with streaming, personas and file attachments; local text-to-image generation through a diffusion pipeline; a wiki that combines curated notes with automatically captured session logs, searchable by keyword and by meaning; document parsing and retrieval-augmented generation for formats such as PPTX, HWP and scanned PDFs; and a local option for fine-tuning models with LoRA, including dataset creation, training and adapter merging.

It auto-detects models already downloaded through Hugging Face's cache or LM Studio, is model-agnostic across model families such as Llama, Gemma, Mistral, Qwen and DeepSeek, and scores each model against the Mac's memory, GPU and context headroom before running it.
