Giato is a powerful AI coding assistant for VSCode that gives you the freedom to choose your intelligence. Whether you prefer local privacy with Ollama or cloud power with OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, or Groq, Giato integrates them seamlessly into your workflow.
We take your privacy seriously. Giato is designed with a "Local-First" philosophy:
Zero Data Retention: We do not store your code or chat history on our servers.
Local AI Support: Use Ollama to run models like Llama 3 or Gemma entirely offline. Your code never leaves your machine.
Secure Key Storage: API keys for cloud providers (OpenAI, Gemini, etc.) are stored securely using VSCode's native Secret Storage API. They are never exposed in plain text.
Vendor Direct: When using cloud models, data is sent directly from your VSCode to the provider (e.g., OpenAI) without passing through any middleman server.
