I understand totally. Kind of same here.
I'm trying a lot of AI services :
- Venice.ai : nice one, they run some models on their own servers, for others it acts as proxy to them (and when it does : it costs some token, it goes too quickly imo)
- Claude "anonymous", using an anonymous email and anonymous virtual card, toping with Monero. Works well, but still proprietary,
- Gemma 4 from Google : nice one, runs on pretty "low" RAM (like 16GB RAM or little less), local model.
It evens runs on GrapheneOS ! - NanoGPT : nice, pay per prompt, using Monero.
- payperq : same concept, nice. But depending on usage, like NanoGPT : tokens can be consumed too quickly. But... Still anonymous.
I really hope prices will go down for machines to run LLM models fully locally. For now I rely mainly on online models, anon way.
My main usage is Claude "anonymous". And secondly : payperq.

My daily-driver isn’t very interesting in my case: I’m neither choosing it nor paying for it myself.
What I’m waiting for is the moment I can just go buy a machine and run something locally that doesn’t make me feel like a caveman (well, cavewoman, but that’s not the point xD) so I can do more cool things for my Monero parallel life :)
Also very interested in full-anon setups. If anyone as paranoid as I am has actually managed to use a decent LLM fully anonymously, I’d love to hear how: not the theory, the “I live like this” version.
