A one-click Windows installer for Odysseus — the self-hosted local AI workspace.
TheOdysseus-Windows is a one-click Windows installer for Odysseus — a self-hosted, fully offline local AI workspace. This installer handles everything automatically so you don't need any technical knowledge to get started.
The original Odysseus requires manual setup through the command line — installing Python, Git, cloning the repo, setting up virtual environments, and more. This project was created to make that process effortless for everyday Windows users who just want to run a local AI without the hassle.
When you launch the installer, it:
- Detects what's already installed on your PC
- Skips anything already present
- Automatically installs what's missing (Git, Python 3.11, Ollama)
- Clones and sets up Odysseus
- Downloads the AI model
- Launches Odysseus directly — no browser, no terminal
- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit)
- At least 4GB RAM (8GB or more recommended)
- At least 5GB free disk space
- Internet connection for first-time setup only
- Download
