Lizard Chat: an offline AI chat for Windows that draws its own charts
Lizard Chat is a full chat workspace that runs on the model you activated, on your own PC. Ask a question with numbers in it and the answer comes back with the chart already drawn. There is no chart button and no special syntax: Lizard works out that the question wants a picture, and the model chooses the shape.
Charts the model decides to draw
Lizard supports bar, line, area, pie and scatter charts, plus node-link diagrams for processes and architectures. The wording of your question only decides which example the model is shown; the model emits the chart type itself and can overrule that suggestion. Asked to “make a diagram of revenue by quarter”, it returned a line chart, because four quarters of revenue are a trend rather than a flowchart.
It also declines to draw something misleading. A single data point, a figure it cannot read, or a diagram with nothing connected produces the written answer and no chart, instead of a picture implying data that was never there.
Ask questions about your own files
Drop text, Markdown, CSV, log or source files into a workspace and ask about them. Answers cite the document and the passage they came from. The index is built on your machine and no second model is loaded to do it.
Workspaces, conversations and tools
General, Code and Research workspaces each keep their own instructions, documents and settings. Conversations are saved, searchable and grouped by day; you can pin, rename, export as Markdown or delete any of them. Lizard speaks the Model Context Protocol, so a workspace can read a folder, fetch a web page, query a SQLite file or read a Git history through free, open-source plugins.
What leaves your computer
Nothing in the chat does. Your messages, documents, answers, charts and conversation history are processed and stored on your own machine, and the chart library ships inside the application so charts render with the network switched off. Sign-in and payment are the only parts of Lizard that use the network.
