Jan (The Default Assistant)

Jan ships with a default assistant "Jan" that lets users chat with any open source model out-of-the-box.

This assistant is defined in /jan. It is a generic assistant to illustrate power of Jan. In the future, it will support additional features e.g. multi-assistant conversations

  • Your Assistant "Jan" lets you pick any model that is in the root /models folder
  • Right panel: pick LLM model and set model parameters
  • Jan’s threads will be at root level
  • model.json will reflect model chosen for that session
  • Be able to “add” other assistants in the future
  • Jan’s files will be at thread level
  • Jan is not a persistent memory assistant
