Eidolon Chat Free

A Free Local AI Assistant by Blacknode LTD

Eidolon Chat Free is a lightweight but fully functional local AI assistant designed for privacy-focused offline usage.

Built on top of Gemma 4 E4B, this edition provides a practical and accessible local AI experience with multimodal capabilities, voice interaction, persistent local memory, document reading, and optional internet search.

Released under the Apache 2.0 License.

No subscriptions.
No forced cloud dependency.
No telemetry-focused architecture.

Because software should work for the user. Radical concept in 2026.

Model Details

Model Description

Eidolon Chat Free is a local AI assistant application built around the Gemma 4 E4B model family and designed as part of the broader Eidolon ecosystem developed by Blacknode LTD.

The project focuses on delivering accessible local AI functionality with multimodal support while remaining lightweight enough for consumer hardware.

Developed by: Blacknode LTD
Shared by: Blacknode LTD
Model type: Multimodal Local AI Assistant
Base Model: Gemma 4 E4B
Language(s): Multilingual
License: Apache 2.0
Architecture: Local multimodal assistant application

Intended Uses

Direct Use

Eidolon Chat Free is intended for:

local AI conversations
document analysis
image understanding
voice interaction
offline AI experimentation
educational usage
privacy-focused workflows

Out-of-Scope Use

This project is NOT intended for:

medical diagnosis
legal advice
autonomous critical decision-making
high-risk industrial usage
fully autonomous agent execution without supervision

Users remain responsible for verifying outputs generated by the system.

Bias, Risks and Limitations

Like all large language models, Gemma-based systems may:

hallucinate information
generate inaccurate answers
reflect biases present in training data
misunderstand context
produce incomplete or misleading outputs

Multimodal interpretation may also produce inaccurate analysis of visual or textual inputs.

Internet search functionality may retrieve inaccurate or outdated information from external sources.

Human supervision is recommended for important decisions.

Machines are still extremely confident pattern predictors pretending not to be probability engines. Sometimes they are correct. Sometimes they are very creative.

Hardware Requirements
