Docker AI desktop client for containerized models. Chat interface with RAG support, conversation history, multi-provider switching & hub.docker.com/u/ai integration.
Askimo transforms Docker AI from a simple chat interface into a full AI studio — with RAG, code block execution, MCP tool integrations, and multi-provider switching.
Chat with AI models running in Docker containers through a clean, organized desktop interface designed for productivity.
Connect your documents and knowledge base to Docker AI conversations with built-in Retrieval-Augmented Generation powered by Apache Lucene.
Edit chat messages, export chat sessions, include attachments in conversations, and customize your workflow with features not available in standard Docker AI access.
Connect to AI models from Docker Hub's official AI repository at hub.docker.com/u/ai that you've deployed via Docker.
Work with AI models in your existing Docker infrastructure while managing conversations in a dedicated desktop app.
Use Docker AI containers alongside OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, or Ollama in one unified interface.
Index your docs, code, and notes. AI answers grounded in your own knowledge base — not the open internet.
AI agents that read files, run commands, call APIs, and execute git operations — not just chat.
Chain multiple AI prompts into automated workflows. Each step builds on the last — research, analyse, write — all in one run.
A fair, side-by-side look at what Askimo AI Studio adds on top of the standard Docker AI access — acknowledging what each does well.
