Reor – An AI note-taking app that runs models locally
Reor is an open-source AI note-taking app that runs models locally. The four main things to know are: 1. Notes are connected automatically with vector search. You can do semantic search + related notes are automatically connected. 2. You can do RAG Q&A on your notes using the local LLM of your choice. 3. Embedding model, LLM, vector db and files are all run or stored locally. 4. Point it to a directory of markdown files (like an Obsidian vault) and it works seamlessly alongside Obsidian. Under the hood, Reor uses Llama.cpp (node-llama-cpp integration), Transformers.js and Lancedb to power…

In plain words
Reor is an open-source note-taking app that runs AI models locally on your device. It automatically connects notes using vector search for semantic discovery, allows question-answering on your notes through a local language model, and keeps all embeddings, models, and files stored locally rather than in the cloud. The app works directly with markdown files from Obsidian vaults and other directories. It's available for Mac, Windows, and Linux.

Saner.AI2024 · saner.ai · ▲677Initially, we thought about this feature due to a bug in our chat interface. And surprisingly, I noticed that POE has just released the same feature. But the distinction is: with us the Multi-bot is designed to streamline the notetaking/working experience -> It allows user to search for external knowledge without switching context Though we are still in the beta phase, I would love to hear your thought/feedback on it :)
NotesOllama – I added local LLM support to Apple Notes (through Ollama)2024 · smallest.app · ▲156This lets you talk to local LLMs in Apple Notes. I saw Obsidian Ollama (https://github.com/hinterdupfinger/obsidian-ollama) and thought it was handy, but I'm too lazy to migrate away from the Apple ecosystem, so I quickly hacked this together. I tend to use Notes as a scratchpad for prompts, so it's nice to do some quick inference without leaving the app. Notes doesn't really support plugins so I'm using the macOS accessibility API for reading selections and then stream responses using the clipboard (not ideal but it works).
remio2025 · remio.ai · ▲541remio is designed to free you from being a manual data porter for AI. By syncing your full context, it builds a zero-effort Second Brain that understands your work as well as you do. We call this AI knowledge base "remio", because we want to build a local first app to "remember every input and output". As knowledge workers, we are stuck copy-pasting context just to get a decent answer. We spend more time digging through scattered Slack threads, Google Docs, and local files than actually doing the work. So here is what we made: 1. Connect once: It automatically indexes your full context—web…
Tiptap AI Suggestion2025 · tiptap.dev · ▲263We recently shipped the Tiptap AI Toolkit (https://tiptap.dev/docs/content-ai/capabilities/ai-toolkit/o...), which lets developers embed LLM-powered editing into rich text editors. Now we’re exploring the next step: making agents operate on documents without a browser involved. The idea is a server-side system where agents can read, write, and transform documents in real time — essentially treating your document layer as a programmable data store that agents can interact with directly. Internally we’ve been joking about the name “real-time agentic document…
AI Playground2025 · veed.io · ▲159Finding notes fast is still hard. You can organize with tags, PARA, or backlinks, but searching always feels slow and frustrating. That’s why I built ConniePad - native app on macOS & iOS. It works offline and lets you capture notes quickly anywhere. It has a comprehensive editor and local speech-to-text on iOS, so you can jot down ideas even without internet. But capturing notes is only half the story. What about finding what you need? ConniePad uses AI search. You can type queries like you would in Google or ChatGPT. It understands similar words, wrong typos, and abbreviations, so you get…
