Whiskers AI is source-visible commercial software built for local-first AI workflows.
Overview
Whiskers AI is designed around transparency, local ownership, inspectability, and user control.
Unlike traditional cloud AI platforms, Whiskers operates locally on systems controlled by the user and does not require hosted AI infrastructure.
The software is distributed as source-visible commercial software. Users may inspect and locally modify the software for personal or internal business use, while official releases, branding, and redistribution rights remain controlled by Chippie Bear Industries, LLC.
