Privacy-First Local LLM Inference Router

C6/10May 2, 2026
WhatA desktop application that automatically routes coding tasks to locally-run open models when possible and falls back to cloud APIs only when necessary, keeping sensitive code local.
SignalDevelopers express strong desire to run models locally to avoid data exfiltration, but current local models aren't good enough for all tasks — they want the best of both worlds with minimal data exposure.
Why NowDeepSeek V4 and similar open-weight models are reaching frontier quality, making local inference viable for many tasks for the first time, while privacy concerns about Chinese and US cloud providers intensify.
MarketProfessional developers and enterprises with IP-sensitive code; 30M+ developers using AI coding tools; competes with Continue.dev and Cody but differentiated by intelligent local-first routing.
MoatProprietary routing intelligence that learns which tasks can be handled locally vs. need cloud, improving with usage data while the code itself never leaves the machine.
