Original: Show HN: Hob - Open-source, on device alternative to Claude Cowork and ChatGPT
A new open-source tool called Hob has been released on GitHub, positioning itself as a fully local, on-device alternative to Claude Cowork and ChatGPT. The project, developed by FrigadeHQ, aims to let users run AI assistant capabilities without sending data to the cloud, appealing to those concerned with privacy, cost, and vendor lock-in. Early discussion has focused on how it compares with established assistants and what it can realistically deliver running locally.
Why now: Growing interest in privacy-focused, local-first AI tools as alternatives to dominant cloud assistants
