This is a Flask web application that provides a chat UI for interacting with the GPT4All chatbot.
GPT4All is a language model built by Nomic-AI, a company specializing in natural language processing. The app uses Nomic-AI's library to communicate with the GPT4All model, which runs locally on the user's PC. For more details about this project, head on to their github repository. You can also reald their Technical report for more information about the training process, the database etc.
The app allows users to send messages to the chatbot and view its responses in real-time. Additionally, users can export the entire chat history in text or JSON format.
The model has just been released and it may evolve over time, this webui is meant for community to get easy and fully local access to a chatbot that may become better with time.
To install the app, follow these steps:
- Clone the GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all-ui
- Navigate to the project directory:
cd GPT4All-ui
- Run the appropriate installation script for your platform:
On Windows :
install.bat
- On linux/ Mac os
./install.sh
On Linux/MacOS, if you have issues, refer more details are presented here These scripts will create a Python virtual environment and install the required dependencies. It will also download the models and install them.
Now you're ready to work!
For simple newbies on Windows:
run.batFor simple newbies on Linux/MacOsX:
run.shif you want more control on your launch, you can activate your environment:
On Windows:
env/Scripts/activate.batOn Linux/MacOs:
source venv/bin/activateNow you are ready to customize your Bot.
To run the Flask server, execute the following command:
python app.py [--port PORT] [--host HOST] [--temp TEMP] [--n-predict N_PREDICT] [--top-k TOP_K] [--top-p TOP_P] [--repeat-penalty REPEAT_PENALTY] [--repeat-last-n REPEAT_LAST_N] [--ctx-size CTX_SIZE]On Linux/MacOS more details are here
--port: the port on which to run the server (default: 9600)--host: the host address on which to run the server (default: localhost)--temp: the sampling temperature for the model (default: 0.1)--n-predict: the number of tokens to predict at a time (default: 128)--top-k: the number of top-k candidates to consider for sampling (default: 40)--top-p: the cumulative probability threshold for top-p sampling (default: 0.90)--repeat-penalty: the penalty to apply for repeated n-grams (default: 1.3)--repeat-last-n: the number of tokens to use for detecting repeated n-grams (default: 64)--ctx-size: the maximum context size to use for generating responses (default: 2048)
Note: All options are optional, and have default values.
Once the server is running, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:9600 (or http://your host name:your port number if you have selected different values for those) to access the chatbot UI. To use the app, open a web browser and navigate to this URL.
Make sure to adjust the default values and descriptions of the options to match your specific application.
This is an open-source project by the community for the community. Our chatbot is a UI wrapper for Nomic AI's model, which enables natural language processing and machine learning capabilities.

Here are some of the future plans for this project:
Enhanced control of chatbot parameters: We plan to improve the user interface (UI) of the chatbot to allow users to control the parameters of the chatbot such as temperature and other variables. This will give users more control over the chatbot's responses, and allow for a more customized experience.
Extension system for plugins: We are also working on an extension system that will allow developers to create plugins for the chatbot. These plugins will be able to add new features and capabilities to the chatbot, and allow for greater customization of the chatbot's behavior.
Enhanced UI with themes and skins: Additionally, we plan to enhance the user interface of the chatbot to allow for themes and skins. This will allow users to personalize the appearance of the chatbot, and make it more visually appealing.
We are excited about these future plans for the project and look forward to implementing them in the near future. Stay tuned for updates!
