Vinaa is now available in beta.
This first release is the beginning of a native, private, and user friendly AI workspace for your Mac. Keep conversations, projects, files, and models together in one place, with support for your own API keys and local models.
As this is an early beta, you may run into rough edges. Your feedback will help shape what Vinaa becomes next.
