localStorage on your device. Optional ZDR for stricter model policies.

Browser-Only Storage, Multi-Model Access

“Browser-only” describes where PLAI.chat keeps the conversation record:

The product UI runs entirely in the browser
Conversation state is persisted with browser storage APIs
There is no PLAI.chat chat-history sync service to browse later on another device
Prompts still transit to model providers when you send a message
Pair with private AI chat guidance and ZDR when policies require it

Browser-Only vs Account-Synced AI Chat

Account-synced assistants are convenient across phones and laptops — and they create a durable cloud copy. Browser-only AI chat flips that default:

🌐 One browser, one history

What you typed lives with the profile/device that typed it. Great for privacy; less great if you expect automatic phone↔desktop sync.

🧱 Smaller blast radius

A compromised PLAI.chat account (when you do sign in for premium) is not sitting on top of a full searchable transcript warehouse of every free-tier chat.

⚙️ Same multi-model surface

You still get the multi-provider catalog, Mermaid rendering, vision/PDF on supported tiers, and pay-per-use premium — without forcing chat archival as the product core.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does browser-only AI chat mean?

It means PLAI.chat keeps the conversation record in your browser instead of maintaining a server-side chat archive you browse later. The UI is a web app; history is client-side.

Is browser-only the same as fully local AI?

No. Local AI usually means the model weights run on your machine. Browser-only here is about storage location for chat history while models still run via providers.

Can I use browser-only AI chat anonymously?

Free-tier models work without signup. Premium features need sign-in for billing.

What happens if I clear cookies/site data?

Local chat history for that origin is removed. That is the privacy feature working as designed.

How is this related to private and offline AI chat pages?

They describe the same architecture from different search intents: privacy posture, offline-readable history, and browser-only storage. See /private-ai-chat/ and /offline-ai-chat/.
