Rubra is an open-source web application designed for developers looking to create AI assistants locally using a large language model (LLM). This platform offers a cost-effective solution by eliminating the need for API tokens, allowing developers to work privately on their projects. Rubra includes built-in, fully configured open-source LLMs and a user-friendly chat interface, making it easy for developers to interact with their AI models. Additionally, it supports multi-channel data processing, enhancing the capabilities of the AI assistants being developed.

With a focus on privacy, Rubra executes all operations on the user's local machine, ensuring that chat histories and data remain secure. It features an OpenAI compatible Assistants API, enabling seamless integration with other models such as those from OpenAI and Anthropic. Community contributions are encouraged, providing a platform for discussions, bug reporting, and code submissions on GitHub, making Rubra not only a powerful tool for AI development but also a collaborative project for developers.
