Varför Early Access?

“Offloom is a local AI application, which means performance and compatibility depend heavily on the user’s hardware and operating system. As a solo developer, I do not have access to the full range of machines needed to validate every configuration before launch. Early Access allows Offloom to reach more users sooner while gathering real world feedback, identifying hardware specific issues, and improving stability and usability across as many systems as possible.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här programmet att vara i Early Access?

“I hope to have Offloom out of Early Access in under six months. However, because Offloom is built and maintained by a single developer, this is not a promise. The timeline will ultimately depend on the volume and complexity of issues discovered during Early Access and the time needed to address them properly.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“The core functionality is already present, but the full version is planned to focus heavily on polish and refinement. This includes improving stability, reducing bugs, expanding customization for how the assistant responds, and delivering a more refined user experience overall. I also plan to improve feedback in the interface so that long running operations provide clearer progress updates and feel more responsive.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The Early Access version includes the primary features of Offloom, including local AI chat, Workspaces for organizing conversations, document upload with local Q&A, local image generation, and an optional web search toggle. The application is usable and feature complete enough for real workflows, but it may still contain bugs, edge case issues on certain hardware, and areas where the UI and responsiveness can be improved.”

Kommer det här programmet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Offloom’s base application will be free during Early Access, and the base features described on this page will always remain free.

In the future, I plan to offer optional paid DLC that adds additional functionality, primarily focused on creative and self entertainment features such as generating longer form stories, assisting with book style writing workflows, and expanded media creation tools such as video related workflows. These DLC additions are optional upgrades, and the free base application will remain fully usable on its own.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Community feedback will be a core part of Early Access. I plan to set up a Discord server where users can share bug reports, performance results, and feature requests. I will also use community input to prioritize fixes and improvements, especially around hardware compatibility, stability, and user experience polish.”
