Need AI

Need AI is an AI chat assistant app for iPhone and iPad from GITU Limited, built on ChatGPT with the GPT-3.5 and GPT-4.0 models. It answers questions in conversation and covers a range of everyday tasks, including translation, text summaries, recipes, job listings, writing help and programming questions. It is aimed at individuals who want a single chat app for language learning, content drafting and general help on their device.

A user types a request into the chat and Need AI replies using the underlying ChatGPT models, so the exchange runs as an ongoing conversation. The same chat handles different kinds of work: translating and interpreting foreign languages, pulling the key points out of long reading, improving a piece of writing, or giving code solutions for Python debugging, JavaScript questions and SQL queries.

Beyond the general chat, Need AI includes a culinary section with AI-curated food recipes for browsing and creating dishes, and a job opportunity hub with listings that range from tech roles to freelance work. GITU Limited advises users to take care when sharing personal details and to watch for generated content that may be sensitive, and states that user safety is a priority while user discretion is still advised.

Need AI is free to download, with premium access sold as a Weekly Plan at $4.99 and a Yearly Plan at $14.99; weekly plans start with a 3-day trial, and charges go through the user's Apple ID with auto-renewal under the user's control. The app runs on iOS 15.0 and iPadOS 15.0 or later, on Apple silicon Macs with macOS 12.0, and on visionOS 1.0, in English and 26 more languages.
