Stop Asking One Chatbot: A Free Desktop App Where AI Experts Debate Your Decision

Ask a chatbot whether your business idea is any good and you'll usually get encouragement, a few polite caveats, and a bulleted plan. It's rarely the pushback a real decision needs. A single assistant tends to follow your framing, and nobody in the conversation has a reason to disagree with you.

So we built something that does disagree. Tajmaat AI is a free Windows desktop app that puts your dilemma in front of a council of AI experts, lets them argue, and ends with a scored verdict.

  • A council of up to six AI experts debates your decision, with a chair delivering a score out of 100, a risk analysis, and a roadmap
  • Each expert can run on a different model, across 50+ models from four providers
  • Bring your own keys: everything stays on your machine, with no LeapDz server in the middle
  • Free for personal and commercial use, no subscription and no paid tier

The idea: a council instead of a chatbot

The name comes from Tajmaât, the traditional Algerian village assembly where a matter was debated openly before it was decided. The app borrows that format:

  • The Amghar is the chair. It keeps the debate balanced, summarizes it, and delivers the verdict: a score out of 100, a risk analysis, and an operational roadmap.
  • The Sages are a panel of six experts. You assign each one a role, such as financial auditor, skeptical challenger, technical architect, corporate lawyer, or marketing lead.

How a session works

  1. Pick a scenario. Validate a new idea, solve a stubborn operational problem, or choose between Option A and Option B. Each scenario has its own structured inputs: project description, hypotheses, constraints, what you've already tried, and your decision criteria.
  2. Build the panel. Give each expert a role and connect it to the AI model you want.
  3. Choose a debate mode. See the next section.
  4. Let them debate. Live web search can be used to check claims against facts.
  5. Read the verdict. The Amghar scores the proposal and lists the risks and next steps.
  6. Export. The decision summary, risk matrix, and full minutes of the debate can be exported to Word.

Four ways to debate

Mode What it does Best for
Round Robin Every expert speaks in turn, so nobody dominates Balanced, broad coverage
Adversarial Thesis against antithesis Stress-testing a plan
Socratic Experts question your underlying assumptions instead of answering right away Exposing blind spots in your own thinking
Consensus The panel works toward a pragmatic compromise Reaching a workable decision

One model per expert

This is the part developers tend to like. Each expert can be assigned its own model or API key, and the app supports more than 50 models across four providers: Google Gemini, Groq, Cloudflare, and OpenRouter.

Different models have different blind spots, so mixing them gives you more genuine disagreement than one model playing several characters.

You bring your own keys. They're stored on your machine, and there is no LeapDz server in the middle. If you'd rather keep everything on your own hardware, Ollama is supported too.

Privacy and architecture

Tajmaat AI is a native 64-bit Windows application with a local core:

  • Session history is saved on your disk in encrypted form
  • Configurations and keys stay on your computer
  • An internet connection is only needed when you use a remote AI provider

An example from the app

One of the scenarios the app ships with: a founder wants to launch an express cold-chain delivery service for neighborhood shops in Oran, using a fleet of electric two-wheelers.

The council tests the revenue model and looks for logistical and regulatory bottlenecks. The Amghar then returns a viability score together with a staged plan for testing the idea before spending serious money.

What "free" means here

Tajmaat AI is free for personal and commercial use, with no subscription and no paid tier.

One practical note: because you use your own keys, usage is governed by each AI provider's free-tier quotas. If you run long sessions with many experts, you may hit those limits. Ollama is the way around that if your hardware can handle it.
