Multiple minds. One answer.
AI Council is a local web app that sends your question to multiple LLMs simultaneously, has them review each other's responses, and synthesizes a final answer through a designated Chairman. Instead of asking one AI, ask a council.
-
Stage 1: Independent Responses — Your query goes to all selected LLMs. Each responds without seeing the others.
-
Stage 2: Peer Review — Each LLM receives anonymized responses from the others and ranks them by quality.
-
Stage 3: Synthesis — The Chairman LLM integrates all perspectives into a single, comprehensive answer.
- Python 3.10+

This project was vibe-coded as an exploration tool for evaluating multiple LLMs side by side. Built to see how different models approach the same question and what emerges when they review each other's work.
