Why VxNewton
VxNewton is built for people who want a capable assistant on their Mac — not a subscription, an account, or another company holding their conversations.
The model runs directly on Apple Silicon using Apple's MLX framework. Your conversations happen on your machine, powered by your Mac's own chip — not a data center.
Download it, open it, start chatting. There is nothing to register for and no login standing between you and an answer.
Saved conversations and app data live in your Mac's application support folder, under your control. Delete them whenever you like — they're your files.
For current events and live facts, VxNewton can search the web and show you exactly which sources it used. Search is optional — when it's off, nothing leaves your machine during a chat.
A calm, dark, native-feeling interface with saved chats, streaming answers, and comfortable long-form reading. No terminal, no model files to manage, no setup rabbit holes.
VxNewton is powered by Google's Gemma open model family, packaged into a consumer Mac app — the model quality of a major lab, running privately on your own hardware.
Get VxNewton
VxNewton is free. Drag the app to Applications, then a guided one-time setup prepares the private assistant on your Mac.
