Chat

Olace's core is the network: your models, reachable from every device you own and any app you point at them. The Olace apps put a ready-made workspace on top, so a freshly paired device is useful in the first minute instead of raising the question "I have remote access, now what?". They cover most of what people reach for AI every day: conversations, files, research, the web, images, voice. Everything below works with local, paired, and cloud models alike.

Attachments

Attach images and documents from the composer: Photos, Camera (mobile), or Files. Text is extracted from images and PDFs on your device, so documents never leave your machine just to be read. Vision-capable models also see attached images directly.

Web Access

Turn on Web Access to let the model search the live web for a turn. It is off by default, and it is never available in Direct Mode.

Research

Research runs long investigations across the live web, on any of your models, and produces a cited report. It runs on your local or paired models, or on a cloud model. See Plans & credits for what Research costs on each route.

Create Image

Toggle Create Image to generate images. Pick an aspect ratio, describe the image, and send. Image generation runs on cloud credits, or on your own OpenRouter key with BYOK.

Voice

Under Settings › Voice, turn on voice input and spoken replies. On computers, speech recognition (Moonshine) and speech output (Kokoro) run entirely on your device, downloaded on demand. On phones, dictation is handled by your device's system speech service, the same engine behind the keyboard mic; Apple devices transcribe on-device, and on Android the service may be assisted by its servers (typically Google's) for the best accuracy. Dictation in Direct Mode chats always stays on your device, with a small accuracy tradeoff on Android.

Search your chats

The history drawer has Search chats. It searches titles and full conversation text, with results as in-conversation snippets. The search index lives on your device.

Windows on desktop

On desktop you can open a conversation in its own window and keep several chats side by side. Closing a window never cancels a response in progress; the reply finishes, saves, and syncs.

Deleting chats

Deleting a conversation asks what you mean: delete it from the cloud and all synced devices, or only from this device. Clearing your whole history lives under Settings › Privacy & Data.
