What it does
Everything you learn stays trapped in the source it came from, so you forget it. Cosminds organizes what you read and watch by idea, not by source: books, PDFs, YouTube, articles and notes become one library. It pulls out the claims, drills you until you can write them back from memory, and its AI Wiki answers only from what you put in, with citations, never from the web. Runs on Claude inside the EU. Never sold, never used to train anything. Free to start, no card.
Turn every book, video, article, and note into ideas you keep. Cosminds organizes what you learn by concept, not by source.

LoreMar 2026 · github.com · ▲130I built Lore because I kept losing knowledge — curl commands, quick notes from standups, and that one thing I told myself I'd remember. It lives in the system tray, a global shortcut pops it up, you type naturally, and it stores or retrieves automatically. Everything runs locally via Ollama + LanceDB — no cloud, no API keys. It classifies your input (thought, question, todo, instruction) and uses a RAG pipeline to answer recall queries from your own stored context. It's free and open source under MIT license, and even though its in very early version me and my friends have been using it for…
An AI zettelkasten that extracts ideas from articles, videos, and PDFsDec 2025 · github.com · ▲38Hey HN! Over the weekend (leaning heavily on Opus 4.5) I wrote Jargon - an AI-managed zettelkasten that reads articles, papers, and YouTube videos, extracts the key ideas, and automatically links related concepts together. Demo video: https://youtu.be/W7ejMqZ6EUQ Repo: https://github.com/schoblaska/jargon You can paste an article, PDF link, or YouTube video to parse, or ask questions directly and it'll find its own content. Sources get summarized, broken into insight cards, and embedded for semantic search. Similar ideas automatically cluster together. Each…

- APAI-Powered Encyclopedia – Beautiful TLDR Articles2023 · explore.eightify.app · ▲11
While summarizing videos (I'm the Eightify founder), I've been secretly working on an AI-generated encyclopedia, and here's why. I found myself thinking a lot about AI and content. Now we have knowledge (think Wikipedia) and intelligence (LLMs). They will both significantly improve soon. What we lack is *a knowledge interface for humans*. What I don't like about current interfaces: - ChatGPT: to get an answer how I want it, I need to craft a perfect prompt - Google: need to spend time avoiding affiliates and unreliable sources - Wiki: great, but boring to read, too much information What I…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
