| 26 | ## What is Witsy? |
| 27 | |
| 28 | Witsy is a BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys) AI application: it means you need to have API keys for the LLM providers you want to use. Alternatively, |
| 29 | you can use [Ollama](https://ollama.com) to run models locally on your machine for free and use them in Witsy. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | It is the first of very few (only?) universal MCP clients:<br/>***Witsy allows you to run MCP servers with virtually any LLM!*** |
