What Offmodel is

Offmodel Personal is a local-first macOS control layer for supported AI-assisted project work.

AI can propose work; the person decides what becomes current project state. Imported AI work remains a candidate until it is reviewed and accepted through a supported Offmodel workflow.

The local project remains the durable source of reviewed project state. Offmodel does not automatically upload that project to an AI or govern arbitrary writes made by external AI tools. Text manually pasted into an external AI service leaves the computer and is governed by that service.

Why this is more than folder access

Markdown keeps content readable and portable. A folder alone does not distinguish current content from an AI proposal, check whether the proposal was based on current content, or record review and acceptance.

For supported project documents, Offmodel adds project identity, revision and base-content checks, current-versus-proposed review, explicit acceptance, stale-state blocking, atomic application and a project receipt.

Supported Workbench document workflow

  1. Select an existing project-relative UTF-8 Markdown document within the supported 2 MiB limit.
  2. Copy or export selected content to an external AI.
  3. Import the returned work as a candidate.
  4. Compare current and proposed content, then accept or reject the proposal.
  5. Before writing an accepted proposal, Offmodel checks the base content and project revision again.
  6. A supported accepted change is written atomically, advances project state and leaves a receipt.
Document boundary. Protected project authority files cannot be edited through this Workbench flow. Stale-state checks establish freshness, not factual or semantic correctness.

Separate Window Switch handoff

Window Switch prepares a bounded handoff for another AI session. The project-side read-only verifier exposes and checks the project identity, revision, checkpoint, current objective and exact next action. “Verification received” opens a separate acknowledgement plan. A person must still review and select “Confirm Changes” before project state changes.

Authority boundary. Verification is not permission. Producing, delivering or checking a handoff does not prove that an AI understood it. Model switching is a consequence of keeping reviewed state with the project, not a claim of universal provider integration.

Who it is for

Offmodel is intended for researchers, writers, students, consultants, developers, professionals, analysts, investigators, and small-business owners who want reviewed project state to remain separate from any one AI conversation.

Free access and Personal offer

Licence boundary. One-time licence with no subscription expiry. Internet is required for activation and periodic validation. Offmodel continues working offline for up to 30 days after a successful validation.

Existing users can choose “Check for Updates…” in Offmodel, or install Offmodel 27.1 over the existing app. If an existing user already purchased Offmodel, the same licence remains valid on that Mac, so a repeat purchase is not required.

Current release boundary

Build status. Offmodel 27.1 (version 1.1.2, build 29) is Developer ID signed, Apple notarized and stapled for Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 13 or later.
