ChatALL

ChatALL (Chinese name: 齐叨) is an open-source desktop client from the ai-shifu organization that sends a single prompt to several AI bots at once, so users can compare responses and pick the best. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux and is distributed through GitHub releases, with the latest listed release being v1.85.110 (May 22, 2025).

What It Is

ChatALL is an Electron-based client for chatting with multiple large language model bots concurrently. The README names three typical users: people hunting for the best LLM answers, researchers comparing model strengths across fields, and developers debugging prompts or choosing foundation models. It is a client, not a proxy, so users need their own accounts and/or API tokens for each bot and a reliable network connection to them.

Supported Bots and Access Modes

The README lists bots such as ChatGPT (including Azure OpenAI), Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, Kimi, Baidu ERNIE, Groq Cloud, Cohere models, xAI Grok, HuggingChat, Llama 2, Vicuna and Gradio-hosted models. Each is reached through web access, an API, or both. The project cautions that web-connected bots rely on reverse engineering and can break when providers change their interfaces, and recommends API-based bots where possible.

Workflow and Local Data

• Quick-prompt mode lets the next prompt be sent without waiting for earlier responses.
• Users can highlight good responses, delete bad ones, and enable or disable bots at any time.
• Views switch between one, two or three columns, with multiple chats, prompt management, dark mode and proxy settings.
• Chat history, settings and login data are stored locally. The project states it collects anonymous usage data (which bots are prompted, prompt and response lengths) but not prompt or response content.

Setup Path

Install from the GitHub releases page: a .exe on Windows, .dmg on macOS (or Homebrew cask), and .deb, AUR or AppImage on Linux. Developers can run it with npm and Electron scripts, and a guide exists for contributing new bots.
