Parley Live, the AI workspace at parley.live
Parley Live is one place to chat with AI, generate images and video, build games and sites, and run models privately on your own machine. The local side is free. You only pay for what the cloud renders.
Free to try · pay-as-you-go credits · no subscription · nothing to install
A conversation that never left the device
Local chat is free and answers on your own hardware. The cloud is there when you choose it.

What Parley Live actually is
Free local AI
A real language model runs on your own device, in the browser through WebGPU or natively in the desktop app. Local chat costs nothing and never leaves the machine.
A desktop app
The Windows app runs models sized to your hardware, from a light 3B up to a 70B if your GPU can hold it. Installing takes about two minutes.
Frontier cloud models
Claude, Gemini, GPT and more in the same prompt box, for the questions your own hardware should not have to carry.
Images and video
Generate images, edit your own photos, and render HD video. These run on premium cloud engines and use pay-as-you-go credits.
Builds what you describe
Games, websites, apps and 3D scenes come out of the same conversation, built and self-checked before they reach you.
Nothing to install to start
parley.live opens in any browser on desktop or phone. The desktop app is there when you want models a browser cannot hold.
Three steps, start to finish
Open parley.live
The chat is on the homepage. No account, no install, no card. The free local model answers on your own device.
Add the desktop app if you want more
The Windows app lifts the browser size limit and runs the largest model your hardware can hold, still free.
Reach for the cloud when it earns it
Frontier models, images and video are one tap away and use credits. There is no subscription and no monthly fee.
Which Parley is this one?
Parley is a common word, and several unrelated projects use it. This one is Parley Live at parley.live, also written Parley AI or ParleyAI: an AI workspace that runs models on your own hardware for free and reaches premium cloud engines when you ask it to. It is not the ocean conservation organisation, not the phone translation app of a similar name, and not the legal or academic tools that share the word.
The idea behind it is simple. Most AI products meter every message because every message costs them money. Parley Live moves the work you can run yourself onto your own machine, where it is free, private and works with the network off, and charges only for the generations that genuinely run on rented hardware. Your GPU sets your ceiling instead of a pricing tier.
Questions, answered
What is Parley Live?
Parley Live is the AI workspace at parley.live. It runs a language model on your own device for free, in the browser through WebGPU or natively through the Windows desktop app, and connects to frontier cloud models plus image and video engines when you want them. It is also written Parley AI or ParleyAI.
Is Parley Live free?
Everything that runs on your hardware is free, with no card and no trial period. That includes unlimited local chat in the browser and in the desktop app. Cloud work, meaning frontier models, image generation and video, uses pay-as-you-go credits. There is no subscription.
Is Parley Live the same as Parley for the Oceans?
No. They share a word and nothing else. Parley for the Oceans is an environmental organisation. Parley Live at parley.live is an AI workspace for chat, images, video and building software.
Is there a Parley desktop app?
Yes, for Windows, and it is free. It installs through the Scoop package manager in about two minutes, which also verifies the download checksum. macOS and Linux builds are in progress. The install steps are in the Parley docs.
Which AI models does Parley Live run?
Locally: Llama, Qwen and Gemma models sized to your hardware, from a compact 3B up to a 70B on a large GPU. In the cloud: frontier chat models plus image and video engines. Parley picks the right one for what you asked, and you can override it.
Is Parley Live private?
In local mode your words never leave your device, so yes, completely. Cloud generations go to the model provider that answers them. Parley never trains on your conversations either way.
