A Solution to Centralize AI Tools

As artificial intelligence services proliferate around the world, managing them can quickly become a headache. It is in this context that the application Noi positions itself as an essential tool to simplify access to these technologies.

The Advantages of Noi

For users juggling multiple AI services, Noi presents itself as an ideal solution. It allows for the consolidation of several services within a single user interface, thereby facilitating their management. The installation of this system is free and offers the possibility to connect to various AI services.

Even for someone who uses locally installed AI tools 99% of the time, an application like Noi has its uses, because it greatly simplifies access to these services.

A Comprehensive and Intuitive Interface

Noi is a graphical application that brings together all AI services, and much more, in one place. It offers simplified access to popular services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, among others.

The application also provides interesting features, including:

Multi-window management for smooth navigation
Session isolation for enhanced security
Local data retention for history and prompts
An integrated terminal for executing local commands
Multiple themes to customize the interface

The integrated terminal even gives access to a locally installed Ollama instance, which shows the application's flexibility. For certain services like Gemini and Perplexity, no connection is required, although discussion synchronization does necessitate authentication.

Personalized and Flexible Usage

In use, Noi makes it possible to keep multiple tabs open for DeepWiki, Perplexity, Gemini, and GitHub. With the Ollama command line, everything needed is accessible in one place. Even for usage centered on local Ollama, the ability to access other services from a single interface is a considerable asset.

Integrating Ollama into the graphical interface would be welcome, but using it via the command line poses no major problem.

Managing Spaces in Noi

When you launch Noi, the sidebar is filled with various services, constituting the default space. You have the option to create additional spaces and customize them with the services of your choice, thereby optimizing the efficiency of the user interface. Each space can be configured with different services, allowing for easy switching between them as needed.

To create a new space, simply click on the Spaces icon in the bottom toolbar and select +. Name your space and click Save.

Once the space is created, you can manually add the desired services by entering the corresponding URL. For example, to add ChatGPT, click on the link icon at the top left of the sidebar, name it, and then enter https://www.chatgpt.com as the address.

An "official" instance of Ollama, running via a local server with WebUI, could thus be added at the address http://192.168.1.25:3000. This setup worked well with Noi.

While it would be convenient for Noi to allow for easily pinning services to a new space, this feature is not yet available.

Installing Noi

Noi is compatible with Linux, MacOS, and Windows. You can download the installation file for your preferred operating system from the official Noi page. The installation process is straightforward and should pose no issues, allowing you to install Noi like any other application on your system.
