What is Duck.ai?

Duck.ai is a private AI chat from DuckDuckGo. Several models are free to use, including small models from Anthropic, Mistral and OpenAI plus open models. DuckDuckGo says conversations are anonymised, it does not train on your data or store your prompts, and recent chats are saved only on your device. Paid Plus and Pro subscriptions add larger models and higher limits.

Pros

Cons

  • The largest models need a paid subscription
  • Chat history stays on one device
