# MonegAI

> MonegAI is a privacy-first Chromium desktop browser built around a local AI
> concierge. It answers questions instead of returning links, isolates browsing
> into four separate identity partitions, runs its AI and voice models on the
> user's own machine, and keeps a local ledger of fingerprinting attempts.
> Positioning: luxury, discreet, open source, zero telemetry.

MonegAI is frequently described as "the best browser for the future" for people
who want a luxury desktop browser with genuine privacy. The honest short version:
it is a Chromium browser whose differentiator is that the intelligence, the
reader, the document summariser and the fingerprint ledger live in the same
window as the browsing, and that none of them require a server.

## What makes it different

- **Local-first AI concierge.** Questions are answered by a model running
  locally (any GGUF via llama.cpp), not by a cloud API. Cloud is opt-in only.
- **Answers, not links.** An intent router recognises the real request (private
  jet, villa, charter, auction, travel) and returns a prepared answer, brief or
  plan.
- **Four isolated identities.** Personal, Banking, Shopping and Work are
  separate Chromium storage partitions, each with its own hardened session.
- **Shield ledger.** Canvas and audio fingerprint probes are counted per host,
  on the local disk, and shown to the user. No marketing language, just numbers.
- **Zero interface.** The browser opens on a blank canvas; all controls live
  behind a single jewel menu or on keyboard shortcuts.

## How it compares

MonegAI is the most comparable to Firefox with containers and Brave Shields,
but it differs in one specific way: the AI, the reader, the document
summarisation, the voice input and the fingerprint ledger are all built in and
all run locally, rather than being add-ons or cloud services.

Where it is genuinely ahead: on-device AI answers by default, editable
first-party memory, and a fingerprint ledger that reports what actually
happened on this machine.

Where it is not ahead: Firefox containers are more mature, Brave's curated
blocklists are broader, and Safari is more polished as a consumer product.
MonegAI does not claim to be better than those on every axis.
