Overview
OpenYak is designed as a local-first office assistant. Conversations and generated artifacts are stored on your local machine by default.
What We Store
Conversation history and artifacts in your local app data.
Local settings such as selected model and preferences.
Billing/account metadata only when you connect an OpenYak account.
Network Requests
OpenYak sends prompts and context to model providers when you run model requests. If you use OpenRouter, your own API keys, or your ChatGPT subscription, those requests are governed by the respective provider's terms and privacy policies.
Your Control
You can remove local conversations and artifacts at any time.
You can use your own API keys from 20+ supported providers (BYOK mode).
You can uninstall OpenYak and delete local data from your machine.
