MAGAN.AI is a suite of portable and local AI-assistance tools that plugs directly into a USB 3 port, for Windows 10/11 PC users. Think of MAGAN.AI as your personal "AI-in-a-box."
We’ve developed our own software and made private, local AI easy. All you need is the drive itself and a compatible machine to run it. Nothing gets installed. Nothing is loaded to the “cloud” – you can work entirely offline, with no internet needed, ever. Simply plug the USB or SSD drive into any compatible machine and go.
Every query you type into a cloud AI leaves a footprint. From marketing firms to government agencies, the digital trail is long and often impossible to erase. MAGAN.AI ensures there is no trail. Your AI runs locally, answers instantly and forgets everything the moment you clear a chat.
Anyone who values privacy and security – working professionals, creators, writers, attorneys, doctors and hobbyists – will find value in a private AI. Your AI, your data, your privacy.
