Every package PrivateGPT depends on, ranked by repo health score.
PrivateGPT is an open-source API layer that sits between your applications and locally running LLMs, providing the higher-level building blocks needed to build real AI products without cloud dependencies. Rather than running models itself, PrivateGPT connects to any OpenAI-compatible inference server and wraps it with production-grade capabilities: document ingestion and retrieval, built-in tools for web search and code execution, MCP connector support, database querying, and a skills system for reusable AI behaviors.
Version 1.0 represents a complete rebuild from its viral 2023 origins as a document chat script. The project now follows the Claude API specification as its reference model, making it a drop-in local backend for tools like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Microsoft 365 Office add-ins. Developers point their existing Claude API clients at PrivateGPT and get private, offline-capable inference with the same messages format, streaming, tool use, and retrieval-with-citations they expect from the hosted API.
PrivateGPT is maintained by Zylon, a company building enterprise AI infrastructure for regulated organizations. The open-source project powers Zylon's commercial platform, which adds Kubernetes orchestration, LDAP integration, SIEM audit logs, and managed deployment on top of the same API layer.
