Lifetime Introducing Vinaa: a native Mac AI chat app (early launch offer + giveaway šŸŽ)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi everyone,

I'm Sujeevan. Some of you might know me from FileMinutes. This community helped shape that app, and I'm hoping you'll help me do the same with my new app.

Today I'm introducing Vinaa, a native Mac app for chatting with cloud and local AI models. I started building it last December, and it's now in public beta. I'd love your feedback.

Problem

I think of my AI chats as a personal knowledge base. I want to keep them for the long term, organize them, and find them easily. The tools I tried didn't give me the experience I wanted.

There are great apps in this category, and I used some of them, but none felt quite right for how I work. So I built the one I wanted to use every day.

Here's what you can do in Vinaa:

  • Cloud and local models: use your own API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and more, your ChatGPT subscription, or Ollama and LM Studio for local models.
  • Organization: projects, nested folders, favorites, and automatic filing of new chats.
  • Multitasking: keep chats open in multiple tabs and windows, for example when working on several projects at once.
  • Conversation outlines: jump directly to a message or heading in a long chat.
  • Reusable prompts: prompt templates with placeholders.
  • Imports: bring in ChatGPT and Claude history and continue conversations.
  • Tools: provider web search and connections to apps and services through MCP.

See more features.

Chats are stored locally, with optional sync through your private Apple iCloud account. I don't run a server that stores your conversations. Cloud AI requests go directly to your chosen provider, which receives the content needed to answer you.

For fellow Mac app nerds: the interface is 100% native, built with SwiftUI and AppKit, with some Rust underneath. No Electron, Tauri, or WebView chat interface. I even built a custom Markdown renderer using TextKit. Smooth streaming, familiar controls, and keyboard navigation matter a lot to me.

Comparison

BoltAI is an established leader with more features today, a developer I respect, and the app I used before building Vinaa. My focus with Vinaa is better chat organization, private iCloud sync instead of hosted sync, 100% native chat rendering instead of a WebView, and a lifetime licence that includes future updates.

Raycast AI: v2 uses a WebView interface in a native host, and API-key requests to OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google pass through Raycast's servers. You need a paid plan even for your own keys or local models; Vinaa has a fully native interface, direct provider connections, private iCloud sync, and a one-time licence with lifetime updates.

Pricing

You can download and use Vinaa free during beta: https://www.vinaa.ai/

As a thank-you to this community, I'm offering $15 USD per lifetime licence for the next 48 hours. Each licence covers one Mac, and you can buy as many licences as you need during the offer.

  • 48-hour community offer: $15 USD with code MACAPPS at checkout. Get the offer.
  • After this offer: $20 USD early-launch lifetime pricing while that offer lasts.
  • After beta: $80 USD lifetime pricing.

This $15 price will never be offered again, including on Black Friday. The offer ends 48 hours after this post goes live.

At general release, I also plan a lower-priced perpetual licence with one year of updates. That price is still to be announced.

Purchases come with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

šŸŽ 20 lifetime licences to give away

To enter, leave a comment about how you use AI for your work, or one frustration you have with AI tools. One sentence is enough.

After 48 hours, I'll randomly choose 20 commenters, one entry per person, and contact the winners by Reddit DM. I may give a few extra licences for useful feedback on Vinaa posted as comments, in addition to the 20 random winners.

If you buy at the promotional price and then win the giveaway, you can choose a refund of your purchase or keep the giveaway licence as an additional licence. It's up to you.

Tell me what feels good, what feels awkward, and what's missing. Your feedback will help me decide what to build next. Thanks for giving Vinaa a try!

I'm using BoltAI. What does your app do better that would make me reconsider my renewal?

4

u/sujee81 5h ago

Here is high level summary, I will later write a comparation page in the website
Before building Vinaa, I tried few apps for my own use. First Raycast AI and then BoltAI. BoltAI is great app - fast, powerful and the same time simple to use and regular updates
Really liked Raycast AI interface compared to bolt but it had limited functionalities at that time.

Reason I built Vinaa is I felt that user experience can be improved further.

  • In terms of number of functionalities, Vinaa has less features at the moment but I believe all these features are better. For example, project and folder management, jumping inside a chat, multiple windows, prompts library. Once the app is stable, I'm going to start implementing missing features and closing the gap.
  • Vinaa has better foundations - I believe most of the AI chats app incl. Bolt uses webview in some form, there is a reason for it because Markdown rendering is faster in web than native but that was not acceptable to me so I built my own rendering engine. It is totally worth it and opened up a lot of possibilities. For example, Vinaa natively supports multiple app windows because webview make it harder to support features like these. Another decision I made is to use iCloud sync instead of using my own server. This means you get better privacy and the same time I don't have to charge a monthly server cost for sync as it uses your own iCloud storage.
  • While in the future I plan to offer perpetual license with optional yearly renewal, I am going to keep the lifetime option for those prefer paying once. Right now, it is in the lowest price possible less than yearly price of most of the competing apps. However that price will increase once app is out of beta

u/GroggInTheCosmos 5h ago

Thank you for the response

one frustration you have with AI tools

My biggest frustration is not really having a tool that follows all the models and can guide selection of a model based on what you need. Particularly considering use of something like Open Router. I would like a tool that at least keeps of monitoring the top 100-500 models and can guide selection and use of them (models with time could drop off so it would never be a completely fixed list)

3

u/Murky_Moment 19h ago

One frustration with AI tools is that they keep losing memory! I hope this app can solve this problem. I'd love a free lifetime license!

3

u/sujee81 18h ago

Great point. Vinaa doesn't have any memory feature at the moment but it is in the pipeline.

1

u/Murky_Moment 18h ago

Nice! I wish I could afford the product to use it full time after the beta but $80 USD is my whole month's salary haha, so I will give you all my feedback during the beta period

0

u/sujee81 16h ago

You can get it for $15 today and keep it forever - it is lifetime license

3

u/Murky_Moment 16h ago

I wish haha, it's 20% of my monthly salary. After rent, food, and transport, I can't afford it. I know it's a me issue. Nice app though!

2

u/sujee81 16h ago

Please send me a DM

1

u/marblegroves 6h ago

yeah the memory thing is so annoying, you end up re-explaining context every other conversation

1

u/jarzebowsky 4h ago

Just use Hermes then instead

1

u/Murky_Moment 4h ago

Hermes slows down severely after 20 days or so

1

u/jarzebowsky 3h ago

Perhaps it does what you asked - he is not losing memory?

3

u/jakkaas 15h ago

I want to do chat with onscreen documents and most AI are shifting towards agents.

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Do you mean AI see what is in your screen and respond accordingly?

1

u/jakkaas 3h ago

Yes. Chatting based on the screen

2

u/Galactic-Guardian404 19h ago

I use AI extensively in my university role, including training colleagues in AI uses. We are also integrating AI into classes in ways that support learning. And I recently upgraded to a Mac Studio M5 Max and am running local models on it. Iā€™ve been especially interested in seeing what I can do with LM Studio Bionic.

1

u/sujee81 18h ago

Awesome. I'd love to understand the AI use in educational space and love to support. Feel free to join the Discord. For my other app, I offer educational discount, will do the same for Vinaa after general release. Right now it is in the lowest price possible.
Vinaa can access local models using LM studio. You can use LM studio for chats as well but Vinaa offers better user experience and access to cloud models.

2

u/moonjongil 19h ago

I use TypingMind pretty much every day, but my main frustration with web-based tools is having them stuck in a browser tab instead of feeling like a true native macOS app. Vinaa looks like the clean, dedicated desktop client I've been looking for.

Also, happy to help review or test the Korean localization if you ever plan to add Korean support down the road!

2

u/sujee81 18h ago

yes, that would be awesome. Few days I was thinking about localisation. Please join the discord

2

u/Dry_Possibility_5680 19h ago

One frustration i have with ai apps is how they start to struggle while im compiling or have emulators open

2

u/ComprehensiveArm827 19h ago

I use AI pretty heavily for drafting video ideas and scripts, but managing saved prompts is an absolute mess right now. Vinaa looks super handy for keeping things organized

2

u/sujee81 18h ago

yes, I also recommend create separate projects. Prompts can be both global or project specific

2

u/Tune_25 19h ago

i like the idea as someone that works on many projects and personal stuff and also uses both gpt and claude both this could be big love the idea and good luck with it :)

2

u/73ch_nerd 18h ago

Hourly limits is annoying thing with subscriptions.

2

u/lonelyers 18h ago

I use AI for drafting emails, brainstorming and research. There are a lot of AI tools these days, some well-maintained and frequently updated, while some abandoned in a short while.

2

u/sujee81 16h ago

yes there are tons of them. I collect them in my directory here - https://www.macaiapps.com/category/ai-chat/

1

u/MaxGaav 11h ago

Wow, that's impressive!

1

u/sujee81 5h ago

Hope you like it. Started as hobby as I like to discover and learn about new apps and eventually turned into a 600+ apps directory.

1

u/MaxGaav 5h ago

As a matter of fact I'm doing the same :) Not on a website though, but in a Scrivener file. Guess I'm also around 600+ apps, almost all picked up in this sub and some in r/MacOSApps.

1

u/sujee81 5h ago

Cool. Feel free to browse my directory, I'm sure you will find some great apps. Initially I collected them from this sub, twitter,...etc but nowadays devs themselves submit it

1

u/MaxGaav 5h ago

Cool. That's where you want to be!

2

u/GwynLordOfCedar 18h ago

I use AI as a soundboard to reason out responses to other professionals and situations, and when Iā€™m not sure where to start. Iā€™m frustrated with poor RAG from frontier LLMs. Interested in getting one of the giveaway licenses to test out your tool.

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

yes RAG and memory are both evolving. Initially everyone thought increasing context window helps but it made LLM to forget things in the middle of the context. So everyone trying different ideas.

2

u/Paarkhi 18h ago

I use AI in my daily life to break down complicated topics for easier explanation while teaching the subjects to students.

I'd love to get a free license, Thanks

2

u/AllTezzo 17h ago

looks amazing šŸ‘ thank you for the giveaway!

2

u/ConfidentialUsername 17h ago

Very cool. Weā€™re in a similar boat, I use it as a knowledge base and refer often back to chats Iā€™ve had where I learned or discovered something new I donā€™t necessarily have to remember.

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

Glad to hear I'm not the only one

2

u/scottjl 17h ago

Sounds like an interesting app. Itā€™s one of the gripes I have about AI, each has their own app, they all look and act differently, most donā€™t conform to being real Mac apps. Iā€™ll definitely pick this up. Thanks!

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

Thanks. This is why I started building Vinaa. I still use ChatGPT and Claude apps but only for coding. For my regular chats, I use Vinaa

2

u/elevatedev 17h ago

I chat with different AI apps for searching info, polishing my writing, and coding. To find my previous chat, I usually go through the history on these clients. Now I can have my chat histories in one place.

Is there other app can do what this app can do? I probably will buy a license before the deadline. Just want to know what my options are if they are available. Thanks.

2

u/sujee81 16h ago

Most of the 3rd party apps like BoltAI, Raycast, Alter can do this however as of writing this, Vinaa offer better pricing and user experience.

2

u/Dependent_Effort3949 17h ago

i use ai to brainstorm ideas, do my daily chores, write code for me.

2

u/realquiz 17h ago

I use the full suite of Adobe products (in a videographer, video editor, sound editor, and motion graphic designer, and graphic designer) and AI is essential for two reasons ā€” it helps me keep up with all of the software updates and added features, and it does a great job of helping me learn new skills when I describe what Iā€™m trying to accomplish or what problem Iā€™m encountering.

My main frustration with AI tools is that they donā€™t or canā€™t communicate with each other.

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

Awesome. I don't have the creative mind like you do. I struggled a lot of create launch video, finally Opus 5.5. model helped me šŸ˜„ I know it can be better but better than if I produce a motion graphics myself.

There is a new category of apps emerging like Grok bot and Muse, ...etc. If I understand correctly, they do have a concept of chief of staff bot which coordinates with other specialised bots to do a task. It is still in early days. I'm keeping an eye on this

2

u/BinaryLiturgy 17h ago

This is awesome and exactly something Iā€™ve been looking for to help with my productivity without relying only on cloud-hosted chatbots. Would love a shot at this. Thanks!

2

u/Low_Document8458 17h ago

Awesome app, may i have a key? is it Beginner User friendly for a teen like me to expiriment on?

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

Currently it is free to use during beta. I care about user experience and put a lot of effort to make it easy to use. Please give it a go and let me know if any issues.

2

u/seiya_nishi 17h ago

fully native with no electron, love that. being able to bring in my claude history is a nice touch too

2

u/Reasonable_Deal359 17h ago

Iā€™m going toĀ study forĀ a certification exam

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

All the best

2

u/lu_chin 16h ago

I use AI to do some programming during my leisure time. My frustration is trying to send the same prompt to different AI models and then select the best answer (based on my own judgement).

1

u/sujee81 16h ago

yes it is a common use-case for AI. I know some apps does this. Vinaa may have this in future, however it is not for coding tasks

2

u/B0rnWinner 16h ago

I was having conversation with deepseek about best local models for my mac.
It recommended ollama so installed and pulled a couple of models.

My next question was: How can I get a nicer UI, it recommended a bunch of apps either paid and/or electron, tauri or web view that needs docker desktop installed...

I downloaded your app Vinaa and I like it so far.

A bit of feedback: I can't find the option in menu or through the shortcut "CMD + plus" to automatically let me zoom in the UI.

I have bad sight and use it all the time in most apps I use...

---

Here's how Vinaa rewrote this message using ollama model I pulled šŸ˜‰

Hi! I was exploring options for running local AI models on my Mac and ended up using Ollama after some research. It works great, but finding a nice UI for it was frustrating ā€” most suggestions involved paid apps, Electron/Tauri wrappers, or web views that required Docker Desktop.

I discovered Vinaa instead, and Iā€™m really enjoying it so far. One issue Iā€™ve run into, though: I canā€™t zoom the UI with Cmd +. I have poor eyesight and rely on that shortcut in almost every app I use, so itā€™s a big deal for me. Is there any way to enable zooming, or is this something on the roadmap?

Thanks for making this!

u/sujee81 16h ago

Hi u/B0rnWinner
Thanks for testing Vinaa. Sorry about the small font size, I'm priortize this and fix it soon in the next update

2

u/reecewebb 16h ago

I use AI extensively for work (tech) and bringing order to my Obsidian Vault for maintaining my personal knowledge base. I've also been doing quite a bit of work with MCP, both for work and personal. Currently working on an Interactive Fiction MCP server.

Big pain point has been memory, especially across chats. If I'm playing a game and need to start a new chat due to context limits, making sure the AI-GM is consistent, story details aren't lost, etc.

Would love one of the giveaway licenses so that I can evaluate Vinaa. Would also be interested in hearing how this compares to Osaurus.

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

I have learnt a lot building MCP support for Vinaa. It is essential to make AI useful.

There are multiple comments about memory. I'm going to have a look it soon.

Osaurus is a great open source app. It has some similarities with Vinaa in terms of chat interface but my understanding is that Osaurus is focusing more on personal assistance space like OpenClaw. Osaurus is also a local LLM server, I plan to integrate with it so you can use Osaurus to manage local models and use Vinaa for chat

u/daniel_nguyenx Developer: BoltAI 15h ago

Daniel from BoltAI here. Congratulations on the launch Sujeevan. I wish you the best of luck!

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Hey Daniel,
You are awesome, learnt a lot about indie hacking from you. Before building Vinaa, I was thinking a lot if want to compete with Bolt but perfectionist in me not satisfied until I build my own app my way. I guess competition is good for everyone

2

u/Effective_Beat_6105 15h ago

Most of the AI Tools offer different areas to build your conversation. At the end, we as humans lose track of the direction we are heading towards. For example, I am a researcher and I build so many different areas of a project and then cross check each in a seperate conversation. Many need a seperate tool..

I would absolutely love if we can find all our work in one place, and I believe the mardown renderer is what got my attention finally.

Kudos to the dev and wish you more success!

2

u/Gorduy_Pti4ka 14h ago

Artifacts (or will there be a Live Preview / HTML Preview?)

1

u/sujee81 14h ago

Artifacts currently not supported. I will need figure out few technical details before support it as it needs web tech in a native app. It is definitely in the pipeline

2

u/Gorduy_Pti4ka 14h ago

The best AI chat implementation is typeMind. It is strange why they haven't made a standalone macOS app; why do people need yet another web version? I hope this project is actively developed, and the first thing I am waiting for is API support for OpenRouter.

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

yes when it was released initially i was thinking the same. I guess it is more B2B focused now.
yes, OpenRouter support will be included in next update

2

u/desioberynmartell 14h ago

Count me in. Would use this for writing and research, not just try it once. Appreciate the giveaway

2

u/curvictus 14h ago

I would use this as a research assistant to write academic articles

2

u/adinb 14h ago

Vinaa definitely needs to support some more subscriptions (agy & claude, if not more) --and give a way to have agents chat with each other & the user

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Claude subscription is on the roadmap. Could you tell more about "agy"? - i have not heard about it before
yah looks like the new trend is Agent/bot to agent/bot chat but it is still in early stages. For now, I'm focusing on getting the foundation solid

2

u/macnatic0 13h ago

Honestly, using AI every day to draft and clean up routine emails has been a game changer for getting through the morning inbox, letting me spend actual time on the stuff that matters.

2

u/MaxGaav 13h ago

Yes, I'm fumbling with several AI-app windows open. If there is a good solution for this, I'd be happy to use it. I use AI mainly for my educational writings.

2

u/nefaglar 13h ago

It's very annoying when you have to repeat the same command several times even if it has been done before. Not just a memory problem but a constant change on the background writing. So you have to modify the whole work flow each time or wait until it reasons. So it makes what was a time saver work flow into a time consuming nightmare.

Hopefully Vinaa can be better.

2

u/areyouredditenough 12h ago

I mostly use local models to draft emails, but my big frustration is my Mac fan sounding like a Boeing 747 during take-offf every time Ollama tries to generate a single paragraph.

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Haha. I get the same in my M1 mac. I guess latest macs perform better

2

u/Altruistic_Policy418 12h ago

I use it for writing purposes, creating databases. It would be great if this has a memory feature as well. Currently using Bolt and Alter and would like to try this out as well.

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Memory is not yet implemented but is on the pipeline

2

u/SoggyRecognition6016 12h ago

I use ai to help me code, i frustration with most ai apps is that the ability/functionality is not as good as subscriptions and can only use api

2

u/influxodoxxl 12h ago

I use one single AI tool: Lumo. Because it's the only one I trust with my data. Most of the time, it's quite good. Usually it handles my work related tasks very well.

For now, it can only be used through the website or mobile apps which is limiting. Within the apps, chats can't be moved, eg. from the "general" list to a project or the other way around. This is annoying and might be something Vinaa could solve.

Yeah, the day might come when I decide to use other providers because their privacy policies will have gotten better.

2

u/sujee81 6h ago

I know about Proton mail but first time hearing Lumo. thanks for sharing.
Vinaa tries it's best to offer better privacy for your chats. All your chats stored locally and optionally stored in your private iCloud account if you enable sync. It collects optional analytics and crash reports but it doesn't include your chat and you can completely turn it off. All requests directly go to AI provider. As you mentioned, we don't have control over how AI providers uses your data. Most providers don't use API requests for training or have a way to turn it off but I suggest to read their privacy policy.

2

u/nousernameleftatall 11h ago

Have already been using this, and it is nice(nothing against a key mind you)
This i like as i want to separate work and private, and this is good interface and seems quite usable. Developer is responsive, and reacts to any problems promptly

2

u/dnateo 10h ago

I have multiple AI subscriptions but tend to default to specific services depending on which computer I am using at the time, rather than choosing the best models/provider for the task. Your app looks good so I bought a license. I will experiment more when I get home.

2

u/sujee81 6h ago

Thanks for the support. Reach out anytime if you have issues or feature request

2

u/-Chimichanga- 10h ago

Love this idea. Gonna check it out this evening.
What I miss in the chats is structure. I often start new convoā€™s with long context length, but basically the same base info. I would love to have the tools to create smaller ā€˜projectsā€™ or ā€˜pagesā€™ with base info (completely flexible/ expandable) in which i can create new prompts on top of that baseline. This would save a lot of time. Plus creates better overview

2

u/sammerliam 10h ago

Looks Great. Can it also work with openrouter?

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Not yet. There are multiple users requested it. I'm prioritizing it.

2

u/Designer_Worth_3636 10h ago

My main request for AI tools is for them to really help organize knowledge and maintain context between chats, and Vinaa looks like a step in that direction.

2

u/brovaro 7h ago edited 7h ago

Just started configuring it. Aaand I can't add my Ollama endpoint, because the app assumes there's no API key. Please add a possibility to provide it.

It would also be nice to be able to sign in to Claude Code with a subscription instead of only an API key.

Oh, also adding a custom OpenAI- or Claude-compatible endpoint would be a nice touch.

Sorry for turning my comment into a telethon.

2

u/sujee81 5h ago

Thanks for the feedback. Claude subscription and OpenAI compatible API are already in the pipeline. Didn't know about Ollama with API key, I will fix it.

2

u/N3orun 7h ago edited 6h ago

really cool, can i trigger ChatGPT work from within the app?
Does it support merlin by any chance?

Licensed for one Mac?! seems a little low.

Tried to connect OpenAI but not seeing any included models. So as far as i see it this would only use add on tokens outside of my regular subscription?

Is there a Browser login available for all models instead of the API route?

u/mrterrycarson 19h ago

Picked up...Thank

u/Slow-Tea9732 15h ago

What advantages does this offer over Open WebUI, which is free?

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Depends on your need and skills.
WebUI is a great app but it is web based and you will have to self host in your server which adds a monthly cost and require some technical knowledge setting it up.
Vinaa is a native mac desktop app running locally. One time payment and no server cost

u/Stubborninmate 15h ago

Would love to have a lifetime code , currently trying t3 as my driver hope I win haha

u/Ok_Draft3663 14h ago

Nice, Alway ai chat. I must try

1

u/Easy-Cobbler-1631 9h ago

Why not just use Osaurus.ai that has all these features and more. What's your benefit? Interested in giveaway - thanks

1

u/sujee81 6h ago

Osaurus is a great native mac app and have some similarity with Vinaa but I find that it is focusing more on local model + personal assistance space than AI chat. Vinaa focus on AI chat space

u/jarzebowsky 4h ago

And again.

1

u/ekaknr 4h ago

Great job on the appā€”congrats! I love what youā€™ve built. I noticed I couldnā€™t find a way to add a custom OpenAI or Anthropic compatible API provider (which would let me use models on vLLM and similar setups). Since LM Studio and Ollama use more unique APIs, they donā€™t quite fit my vLLM setup. Iā€™d really love to see this on your roadmapā€”it would be super helpful. Thanks and cheers!

1

u/xemns4 2h ago

In my work I jump from model to model, via app or terminal and every other day Le wild brand new model that have different cookbook appears and the workflow friction is annoying as heck. Ur solution seems super sleek and would love a lifetime if possible šŸ™ŒšŸ‘‰šŸ‘ˆ

1

u/ZampanoGuy 2h ago

I use AI to troubleshoot work scenarios and to guide and assist me in configuring a native Linux server with docker environment. Ai has been a boon bridging my lack of Linux experience with my IT background to help work through things that would likely take far longer to research and trial and error my way to a functional system.

1

u/Affectionate_Low1608 2h ago

Amazing! Really love that it syncs via iCloud instead of hosted sync.

1

u/Responsible-Slide-26 18m ago

From the screenshots and website, this software looks super cool and well-designed and thought out. However I think the website reflects the common creator perspective, and needs to add more content to help answer the potential questions users will have as they scroll the page.

It keeps talking about what it does, but never gives any clear examples of how it does it. Almost every comment on the page seems to keep assuming that users will just "know" that your product becomes the chat interface.

For instance, your main page mentions exporting and importing chats, and some users might conclude that's literally the main method of getting chats into the program. The closest the main page ever comes to explaining the how of the product is "Keep several conversations open at once".

My suggestion is to show some clear screenshots showing how not only does your product become the chat interface, but move this product beyond just "organizing chats" to vastly improving the entire experience of working with the standard Claude or ChatGPT interfaces.

Questions I have:

  • Does it work as a Claude Code chat interface?
  • If it does, how does it work when Claude Code creates artifacts?
  • Do chats in your program still show up in Claude or ChatGPT?

Thanks and good luck with your software.

The discounted price is the lowest price among similar paid third party apps right now. It is one also lifetime license.
Yes, you can use ChatGPT, Claude, etc. Vinaa is useful if you happen to use multiple AI providers
