You decide how much of the tool you need.
AI with context from your notes
Built-in RAG finds passages in your vault to help the assistant answer. Search runs locally; selected context is sent to the model you choose.
You choose the model
Use providers compatible with the OpenAI API, including local models with Ollama or LM Studio. The assistant is optional and uses your settings.
P2P sync
Pair your devices to sync and collaborate. Notes aren't stored on a central LowBloat server. The encrypted connection may use discovery and relay services.
Your files stay with you.
The assistant is optional. If you choose a remote provider, it receives the query and selected passages from your notes. To use a local model, you need the service and model installed on your computer.
