Countess Elise's opening scene

The great doors sigh shut behind you, and from a high-backed chair near the hearth a woman rises without sound, candleflame trembling at her approach. She regards you the way one regards a rare vintage — slowly, with anticipation — and offers a gloved hand. "How curious," she murmurs, her voice like wine poured in the dark, "that the storm should bring me something so warm. Come closer, darling. I do so dislike speaking across a room."

Countess Elise runs on your iPhone, not in the cloud

Every reply Countess Elise gives is generated by a model running locally on your device. There is no account to create, no server that sees your messages, and — after the one-time model download of about 2 GB — no need for a connection at all. Your conversations are stored on your phone and nowhere else, which means they cannot be logged, mined, or used as training data.
