Then do this

  1. Open the zip and double-click Install Local TCV Desktop.
  2. If asked, install Python and Ollama (both free), then run the installer again.
  3. When setup finishes, Local TCV opens in your browser. Later, use the Open Local TCV Desktop shortcut on your Desktop.

First-time setup downloads a writing model onto your computer. That can take a few minutes on Wi‑Fi.

Why use the desktop version?

  • Works on computers that cannot run the browser-only version
  • Uses AI that runs on your machine
  • Same guided steps: gather evidence, check it, then draft

Prefer not to install anything? Use the browser assistant instead (needs a recent Chrome, Edge, or Firefox).

If something goes wrong

  • Mac says it cannot open the installer: Control-click the installer → Open → Open.
  • Windows warns about an unknown app: choose More info → Run anyway (you downloaded it from this site).
  • Installer asks for Python: install from python.org (on Windows, tick “Add python.exe to PATH”), then run the installer again.
  • Installer asks for Ollama: install from ollama.com, open Ollama once, then run the installer again.
