15+ providersChange models as the work changes.
Keep the main thread. Follow the interesting part.
Linear chat makes you choose between derailing a useful conversation and opening a blank chat with no context. CocoCroco keeps both the detour and the path that led to it.
Drag it onto the canvas
A linked chat appears as a new branch, while the original stays untouched.
Continue with context
The branch inherits the conversation up to that moment, ready for a new direction.

Private by architecture, not by promise.
CocoCroco stores your saved boards, conversations, provider keys, and settings locally—not in a CocoCroco cloud database. On the web, that means this browser’s private storage; on desktop, a local SQLite file. When you send a message, the relevant context and attachments go directly to the provider you choose, under that provider’s terms.

Questions before you make the switch
The important details about branching, provider costs, privacy, and Pro.
Why not just open a new ChatGPT or Claude chat when I get a tangent?
A new chat makes you rebuild the context and lose the connection to the original idea. CocoCroco lets you fork from the exact message or passage, continue with the relevant history, and keep every route visible on your board.
What exactly happens when I branch a conversation?
Select a message or passage and drag it onto the canvas. CocoCroco creates a linked child conversation with the parent history up to that point, while the original route stays untouched and ready to revisit.
Do I need my own AI provider keys?
Yes. CocoCroco is BYOK: bring an API key from one of 15+ supported providers, choose the model that fits the work, and pay that provider directly for usage. CocoCroco is the interface; it does not bundle model usage into the product price.
Can I use my ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro subscription with CocoCroco?
Not directly. ChatGPT Plus and Claude Pro cover the providers’ consumer apps, not API usage in CocoCroco, so you need a separate provider API key and separate usage billing. On desktop, supported local AI CLIs are another option.
Where is my data stored—and what leaves my device?
Boards, conversations, provider keys, and settings are stored locally in SQLite—private browser storage on the web or a local database file on desktop. CocoCroco does not receive or proxy your chat content: when you send a message, the relevant context and attachments go directly to the provider you select, under that provider’s terms. There is no automatic cloud sync; clearing browser data removes the local copy, so use export/import to back it up or move it.
What’s included in Free versus Pro?
Free gives you the core branching experience in your browser, with unlimited chats and small limits of 4 boards, 2 personas, and 2 prompts. Pro is $97 once: it removes those limits and adds unlimited blueprints, skills, and plugins, plus the focused Windows/Linux desktop app and no ads.
Is Pro a subscription, and can I move it to another computer?
No subscription: Pro is a $97 one-time purchase for lifetime access and future updates. Your license works on every machine you personally own; move your board data with explicit export and import instead of automatic cloud sync.
Can I try CocoCroco before I pay?
Yes. Open the browser app for free—no account or credit card required—and decide after using the core experience. If you buy Pro and it is not a fit, you can request a full refund within 14 days.
