No corporate content policies. No server-side moderation. No accounts. Frankly AI runs open-weight models chosen for directness rather than compliance, so you can ask the questions other AI apps dodge and get honest, thoughtful answers on the topics that matter to you.
Tap a persona and start — from The Straight Talker and Creative Writing Partner to Relationship Realist and The Historian.
Zero data collection, no sign-ups, no tracking. Everything runs on your device and works fully offline after setup.
Speech-to-text plus optional Kokoro voice replies, with streaming responses in real time as the model writes.
Each persona is tuned for a different kind of directness. The Straight Talker cuts the fluff. The Creative Writing Partner brings mature, uncensored fiction to your stories and roleplay. Devil's Advocate steelmans unpopular positions, Frank Doctor gives medical context without liability hedging, and the Relationship Realist is honest rather than merely validating.
Round it out with the Philosophy Sparring Partner, a brutally honest Code Reviewer, and The Historian for unvarnished history. Frankly AI can be genuinely useful, but it isn't a substitute for professional advice.
Import any compatible GGUF model directly from Hugging Face, alongside curated models like Dolphin-Mistral, Dolphin-Llama 3, and Lexi-Llama 3.
A unified prompt library with custom prompts and starters, plus AI Memory for facts that persist across conversations.
Siri Shortcut suggestions let you jump straight into a chat without opening the app first.
Pro adds chat export to Markdown and plain text from both the chat and history views.
The free tier gives you all 8 personas, full conversation history, and 10 messages per day using Apple Foundation Models on iOS 26+ or Mistral 7B with minimal guardrails.
Pro unlocks unlimited messages, all four curated models, custom system prompts per conversation, chat export, and removes ads — all while keeping every conversation on your device.
The best conversations are the ones you can have honestly, without worrying about who's reading over your shoulder. Frankly AI keeps everything on your device: there are no accounts to create, no analytics quietly collecting your prompts, and no servers relaying your words. After the initial setup, it runs fully offline — on a flight, off the grid, or simply with the network switched off, your companion is still right there.
That privacy is what makes the candour useful. Talk through a tough relationship decision with the Relationship Realist, pressure-test an argument with Devil's Advocate, get straight technical feedback from the Code Reviewer, or spin up mature, uncensored fiction and roleplay with the Creative Writing Partner. Because the model runs locally and isn't wrapped in server-side moderation, you get direct, thoughtful answers instead of deflections — useful, honest, and yours alone.
You stay in control of the experience, too. Import your own GGUF models from Hugging Face, save prompts and starters in the unified library, let AI Memory carry key facts between chats, and jump straight into a conversation with a Siri Shortcut. Frankly AI can be genuinely helpful across a huge range of topics — but it's a candid companion, not a replacement for professional medical, legal, or financial advice.
It runs open-weight models directly on your iPhone — models chosen for directness rather than compliance. No corporate content policies and no server-side moderation, so you get candid answers on topics other AI apps tend to dodge.
