Complex Conversation

True exploration grows like a mind map, not a flat list.

NaïveChat treats your conversation as a dynamic mind map. Regenerations, alternate follow-ups, and detours remain connected, so exploration does not turn into duplicated chat clutter.

Active Path Keep your history focused while jumping between alternatives.
Regeneration ⌘R
Try another model or preset, compare replies without a full fork.
Branching Exploration Forge new paths from any repllies in the history.
Branch Map ⌘J
Visualize your thought process. When discussions branch out, pull up the map to traverse your nodes and switch between active paths instantly.

Hotkey Driven

Speed of thought, commanded by keys.

Built from the ground up for those who think faster than they click. Summon, command, and switch contexts in milliseconds. NaïveChat feels less like a separate window and more like a native layer of your workflow.

Global Activation Summon NaïveChat over any app to chat instantly, then dismiss it with ESC. Keeping your focus exactly where it belongs.
Preset-Specific Launchers Give distinct assistants their own entry points when one shortcut is not enough.
Fully customizable Remap built-in actions in Settings so shortcuts follow your habits, not the other way around.

Start chatting, naïvely.
