webAI applications allow anyone to build teams composed of AI experts, who can collaborate across platforms such as Slack, DocuSign, Hugging Face, and Apple apps. At the same time, users' files remain on their own Mac.
Austin, Texas, November 5, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- Today, for the first time, we are releasing the Mac version of the webAI application to the public. This application runs a new type of small-scale inference model webAI on the user's own computer, allowing people to use AI for private work without having to send files to the cloud or pay token.
Most AI applications run in the cloud, and their usage is either billed according to token or is limited by package quotas. In addition, each document has to be sent to someone else's server. webAI, on the other hand, runs the model directly on the local machine of Mac. Users can work on sensitive client proposals or unfinished business plans, making repeated modifications as needed, without encountering any token restrictions.
webAI CEO and Co-founder David Stout stated: "With the webAI application, we make cloud AI an option. Why do you have to send a private document to an online service just to get some help? Your Mac can handle all that work. You can continue to control what you share and can ask follow-up questions as needed, without having to constantly monitor the token meter."
In this application, users can create “Personas (Role)”: that is, AI experts whose role positioning, knowledge, and tools are chosen by the users themselves. Multiple roles can work together on the same task. For example, a consultant can have one role extract customer requirements from project notes, another role draft a proposal, and a third role check if there are any omissions in the draft.
The connector can work in conjunction with applications that users are already using, including Slack, DocuSign, Hugging Face, and Apple applications. Users can control which content each role has access to and what actions they can perform. A role can extract the latest customer decisions from Slack, check which contracts in DocuSign have not yet been signed, and draft follow-up content for user approval. In this way, users can save time spent searching for context and copying details between different applications.
