NGIBS v2.3 is now available

Meet NGIBS. The Next-Gen
Intelligent Browsing System.

"The Software That Thinks, Not Just Displays."

Stop searching. Start reasoning. NGIBS combines local LLMs, live web scraping, deep recursive research, and long-term memory into one powerful, fully localized desktop app.

I have completed the deep research loop. Based on the aggregated data from 12 valid sources, local LLMs drastically reduce latency (0ms network roundtrip) but require significant VRAM overhead compared to API calls 1 2.

Four modes of reasoning.
One uncompromising UI.

Quick Search & Live Search

Quick Search hits your pre-trained LLM instantly with session memory. Need real-time data? Live Search intercepts the query, hits the DuckDuckGo API, Wikipedia, and Beautifulsoup to fetch the feed, then the LLM answers with verified sources.

Deep Research Reports

Trigger a recursive reasoning loop. NGIBS fetches, cross-references, and synthesizes data into a final output file.

Context Aware Memory

Never repeat yourself. NGIBS manages short-term conversational context and long-term vector-based memory.

Absolute Control Over LLMs

Through the built-in settings UI, you can pull new models via Ollama, delete old ones, swap models mid-chat, and adjust the system tone dynamically. It's your AI, you dictate the rules.

Agentic workflows.
Beyond simple prompting.

Standard LLMs guess the answer. NGIBS breaks down complex questions into sub-queries, independently searches for each, verifies facts, and compiles a logically sound report.

  • Attach files directly into the chat context.
  • Multi-step reasoning with self-correction.
  • DuckDuckGo API & Wikipedia Module integration.
  • Create, switch, and manage multiple chat spaces.

Your data is yours.
Air-gapped security.

Working with proprietary code, confidential documents, or patient data? NGIBS guarantees privacy because the engine is installed directly on your machine.

The Offline Guarantee

When Live Search is disabled, NGIBS makes absolutely zero external network requests. Your data cannot be used to train external models.

Built for people who take privacy seriously.

Software Engineers

Debug offline. Upload complex documentation files, switch between various LLM models, and ensure your proprietary code blocks stay out of cloud server logs.

Academic Researchers

Synthesize literature reviews instantly. NGIBS's Deep Search recursively scours the web, generating clean PDFs or Markdown files with mapped citations.

Data Analysts

Compile market research with Live Search. Connect the dots across dozens of web sources using short-term/long-term context-aware memory.

Questions? We've got answers.
And some opinions.

ChatGPT is a oracle you pray to in the cloud. NGIBS is a tool you own. We don't store your data, we can't ban you, and we won't change our model behavior overnight. Plus, we actually cite sources instead of hallucinating them.
"But ChatGPT is free!" — You pay with your data, your privacy, and your dignity when it confidently tells you the wrong answer.
Only for Live Search mode. Quick Search, Context memory, and file analysis work entirely offline. You could run NGIBS in a Faraday cage if you wanted to. (We don't judge your threat model.)
"What if I need to Google something?" — That's what Live Search is for. But yes, you'll need to reconnect to the scary internet for that.
If you can run Ollama, you can run NGIBS. We support everything from 3B parameter models (runs on a potato) to 70B monsters (requires actual hardware). CPU-only mode works fine for Quick Search, though Deep Search might test your patience.
"I have a GTX 750 Ti." — Stick to Quick Search. Please. For your own sanity.
On your hard drive. In a local ChromaDB instance. Vector embeddings, chat histories, and uploaded files never leave your machine. You can delete everything with one click in Settings, or manually nuke the database folder like a true digital survivalist.
"But what if I want cloud sync?" — Then use something else. Seriously. We don't do that here.
Absolutely. NGIBS is Ollama-native. Pull any GGUF model from the Ollama library or import your own finetunes. Switch between a fast 3B model for quick queries and a smart 70B for deep research—mid-conversation if you want.
"I finetuned a model on my company's codebase." — Perfect. That's exactly what this was built for.
MIT licensed. No telemetry. No premium tier. No venture capitalists demanding "user engagement metrics." We built this because we were tired of renting our own tools.
"How do you make money?" — We don't. Shocking, we know. If you feel guilty, star the repo or send a thank-you note.
NGIBS isn't a browser—it's a research operating system. You still need Chrome to doomscroll Twitter. But for actual work? Research, analysis, coding, writing? NGIBS replaces 90% of what you use ChatGPT + Google + Notion for.
"I use 47 browser tabs for research." — We know. That's why we built this. Close the tabs. Breathe.
