Privacy-first Streamlit companion keeps DeepSeek chats local

AI Partner is a lightweight Streamlit app for private roleplay chats with DeepSeek, designed to keep conversation history local as JSON files instead of relying on a hosted web chat. It includes persona customization, session management, streaming responses, and can be adapted to other models if you want to swap away from DeepSeek.

// ANALYSIS

Strong niche open-source utility: this is more of a practical privacy-first starter app than a polished consumer product, but that is also the point.

–Local JSON session storage is the main differentiator and directly supports the privacy angle.
–Persona controls and session switching make it immediately useful for roleplay workflows.
–The app uses an OpenAI-compatible API path, so it should be easy to adapt to other models.
–Best fit is hobbyists and tinkerers who want a self-hosted chat UI, not a mainstream SaaS audience.
