Pinokio is a local launcher for people who want to try AI apps on their own computers. It pairs a catalog of community projects with scripts that handle the commands each app needs. Pinokio runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and its code is open source under the MIT license.

The catalog includes local LLM tools, image generators, and audio and video apps. Platform and GPU filters help narrow the choices. Examples include Fooocus, ComfyUI-based projects, and Uncensored Local Studio, which runs GGUF models, Whisper, and Kokoro locally. Model support and hardware needs depend on the app you choose.

Launcher scripts come from public Git repositories, so you can inspect what they will run. Scripts in the Discover selection are manually reviewed, and Pinokio stores app files and installed binaries in its own directory by default. You can write your own scripts. Scripts can also download files and execute commands, which makes their source useful to check when choosing a project.
