PRIMARY: On-Device Processing.
All processing stays local on your device: no tracking, no analytics, no data collection. Works offline once the model is downloaded.

OPTIONAL: OpenAI Fallback.
If on-device AI isn't available, you can optionally use your own OpenAI API key. You control your data, and API keys are encrypted locally.
