Get started
Install and prerequisites
Dola app download for Windows, macOS, and Linux: account access, where the installer actually comes from, and the Unreal Engine 5.7 plugin builds.
Last updated 10 October 2026
Access first
Downloads sit behind a signed-in Dola account. Create an account first; it is free, and access is immediate unless launch spots are full. We do not publish a public direct download URL that skips that gate.
Download the Dola desktop app
The desktop app ships installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The signed-in Releases page lists the latest installer for each platform (exe / dmg / AppImage and related artifacts). Copyright on the installer is “Dola AI”.
Downloading the app is free, and so is using it with your own model provider API key: in the app, open Settings → Model and turn on Override provider (step by step). Dola-hosted models need a paid plan instead.
Sign-in from the app uses a short-lived browser code, not a pasted API key. The full walkthrough, from account to plugin, is the Dola app download guide.
Unreal Engine version
Published plugin builds are currently for Unreal Engine 5.7 on Windows and Linux (release zips named like Dola-5.7-Win64.zip and Dola-5.7-Linux.zip). macOS is not supported yet. The desktop app installs against the engine series of the project you open. We do not claim every Unreal 5.x release is packaged today.
The plugin needs Epic's own Unreal Engine build: the Epic Games Launcher install on Windows, or Epic's Linux download on Linux. A self-built (source) engine is not supported.
Plugin install is in-app
After you attach a project, use Install Dola plugin in the desktop app. That installs the plugin into Dola’s local plugin folder and enables it for your project. There is no separate command-line install.
