PoolParty Chat · Personal AI

# Ask the AI in your pool.

Ask an available model through your pool. See which model answered and why it was selected, with the request served by compatible hardware you own.

-   Models on your computers
-   See the model and selection reason

[Available in beta] Personal AI chat is available in the beta.

*Models in your pool*

## Choose the model and source that fit the task.

PoolParty routes each request to an eligible model and computer. A model runs on a compatible machine; separate GPUs do not combine their memory or split one model across devices in the beta.

### [Available in beta] Local models

Use models registered on compatible computers in your pool. Each answer identifies the model and selection reason.

### [In development] Provider APIs

Bring supported provider models into the same pool workflow through an owner-approved connection. Provider credentials and charges remain separate from PoolParty credits.

*A clear answer, with its source*

## Know what answered.

Chat uses a model available in your pool and shows the selected model with the reason it was chosen. The small example is an illustration of the product behavior, not a screenshot of the app.

Help me plan a community garden project.

Start with who the garden will serve, the space available, and a simple plan for water and upkeep. Then invite neighbors to shape the first planting day.

*A different kind of conversation*

## Shared conversations are in development.

PoolParty is building conversations where people and agents can discuss shared work in a Space or Room. A shared Room has its own audience and history; your private assistant conversation does not silently become group history.

**In development** Agent participation, shared Room conversations, and connections to Theater are not part of the available personal AI chat.

Private AI chat Stays separate unless you choose to share an answer

Concept only; connected conversations are in development.

*One PoolParty ecosystem*

## Chat is one part of your PoolParty.

Personal AI and model selection are available in the beta. Agent crews, provider onboarding and shared conversations are in development, alongside PitchDeck, Social and Theater.
