Council 1.0 — first public release. 🎉

A native macOS app that asks several AI models the same question — they answer in parallel, critique each other blind, and you decide.

Download

Grab Council-1.0-macOS.zip below, unzip, and drag Council.app to Applications. Requires macOS 14 or later (Apple Silicon or Intel).

⚠️ First launch

Council isn't signed with a paid Apple certificate (free, solo, open-source project), so macOS will warn the first time. To open it once:

  • Right-click Council.appOpenOpen, or
  • System Settings → Privacy & Security → scroll down → "Open Anyway".

After that it opens normally. Prefer to build it yourself? Everything's in the repo — see the README.

Bring your own keys

Council works with your API keys — Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Mistral, Perplexity, OpenRouter, or Ollama (local, no key). Keys live only in the macOS Keychain, are sent only to the provider you pick, and never touch any server (there isn't one).
