Our verdict
Chatbox is a lightweight client for chatting with many AI models: plug in your own API keys for OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, DeepSeek and others, or buy a Chatbox AI plan for hosted models. It runs almost everywhere, from Windows to iPhone to the browser, and keeps chat history on your device. Advanced models and some features are reserved for paid plans.

FAQ
Does Chatbox use my chats for training?
Chatbox says conversation history and settings stay on your device, and that when you use its hosted models your messages are sent only to generate responses, not for advertising or model training.
