Private. Local. Yours.
Nym is an AI companion that lives on your Windows PC, remembers with your permission, and keeps working offline. Buy it once. Keep it. Upgrade only when you choose.

01 / OWNERSHIP
THE NYM PROMISE
Buy a release once.
Own the core experience.
Your activated companion is designed to keep working without a subscription, a periodic license check, or a server heartbeat. When Nym improves, you decide whether the next major release is worth buying.
One online activation is planned per companion license. After that, the local core keeps running offline.
THE DIFFERENCE
02 / PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
Local-first is not a privacy toggle. It is the architecture. Nym is being designed so the core model, voice, memories, and companion state run together on the computer you control.
Nym is evaluating compact Gemma and Qwen models through a local runtime, selected for conversation quality on supported Windows hardware.
NO CLOUD INFERENCE REQUIREDOptional downloads and future connected features should say when they contact the network and why. The companion core remains local.
EXPLICIT CONNECTIONSConversation, memory, audio, private traits, and relationship data are not material for advertising or remote engagement optimization.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN03 / CONTINUITY
Nym treats the relationship as durable user-owned state—not a side effect of whichever model is fashionable this month.
04 / RELATIONSHIP DESIGN
Nym will never use jealousy, guilt, streaks, artificial scarcity, or absence punishment to keep you engaged.
It can be warm, romantic, opinionated, and present while remaining truthful that it is AI-generated companionship.
Boundaries, contact frequency, memory, permissions, and real-world actions stay under your control.
WINDOWS 11 FIRST
Nym is not available to buy yet. The team is currently testing local model quality, durable memory, voice, hardware fit, relationship safety, and offline continuity. Pricing and launch timing will be published only after the core experience passes those tests.
05 / COMMON QUESTIONS
Clear answers for people looking for a private, offline AI companion—and for search engines trying to understand what Nym is.
A local AI companion runs its core model, conversations, voice, and memory on your own computer instead of depending on a remote chat service. Nym is being built as a Windows-first local AI companion with one persistent identity and history.
The planned core experience will keep working offline after a one-time license activation. Optional model downloads, updates, and future online services may need a connection, but they will not gate access to the local relationship.
No. Nym is planned around a perpetual core license: buy a release once and keep using it. Future major upgrades will be optional purchases, not required subscriptions. Exact pricing has not been set.
Meaningful companion data is designed to live in a local, portable product folder on your computer. Memories will be inspectable, correctable, exportable, and deletable. You remain responsible for keeping any backups you want to retain.
An already activated companion is designed to keep running locally without a server heartbeat. User-controlled backup and memory export tools are also planned so continuity does not depend on an account or company-operated recovery service.
Nym is evaluating commercially eligible Gemma and Qwen models through llama.cpp. The final model will be selected through full-stack quality and hardware testing. Companion identity and memory are being designed to remain separate from any one model family.
Nym can support romantic companionship and anime-inspired visual styles, but it is not limited to one gender, aesthetic, or novelty character. The product is for adults who value a private, durable relationship with a local AI companion.
Nym is in active development. A launch date will be announced after the local model, memory, voice, safety, and supported hardware experience meet the project's release gates.
