AI coding at your pace — powered by open models, with zero setup.
Ourcelium is a plug-and-play AI coding assistant. Sign in once and start coding: no API keys to manage, no provider accounts, no configuration files. You get a capable open model in your editor at a fraction of the cost of closed-source assistants.
Why Ourcelium?
Most ways of coding with open models are bring-your-own-API: sign up with a provider, generate a key, paste it into a config, pick a model, tune the settings. Ourcelium removes all of that. Click Sign in, authenticate in your browser, and you're coding — the free tier doesn't even ask for a credit card.
- Zero setup — sign in with GitHub, Google, or email and everything is configured automatically
- Open models — currently MiniMax M3, a frontier open-weight coding and agentic model
- Honest pricing — a generous free tier, and a flat $10/month when you need more
- A great fallback — out of usage on your primary assistant mid-task? Ourcelium is a cheap, capable second lane that's always ready
Features
- Agent — hand over a task and let the model work across your codebase with tools: reading files, editing code, and running terminal commands with your permission
- Chat — ask questions about your code in a sidebar chat, with
@-mentions to bring files and context into the conversation - Edit — select code, describe the change, and review the diff inline without leaving your file
- CLI — prefer the terminal? The same assistant is available as the
ourceliumcommand-line tool, sharing one sign-in with the extension

Our vision
Today, AI coding runs almost entirely on closed models in hyperscale data centers. We think there should be a serious alternative: open models, transparent pricing, and — over time — an open network of independent compute providers rather than a single centralized operator. Ourcelium starts simple, with one excellent open model that anyone can use in seconds, and grows from there: more models, smarter routing, and a progressively more open infrastructure underneath.
Using Ourcelium today is the most direct way to support that direction.
Getting started
- Install the extension

That's the whole setup.
