Trulan

Give AI context without giving it your data

What it does

Trulana is a local-first private context server for AI tools. Apps query your data over REST or MCP, but only redacted answers leave your device. Your raw data never leaves your machine. Includes: • Encrypted local vault (AES-256) • 3-stage redaction engine (regex + NER + generalization) • REST API on localhost • MCP support for Claude & Cursor • Token-based auth + audit logging • 117 tests passing Build AI apps that know the user - without storing their data.

    I built the desktop app that detects and redacts personal data (or PII) locally without sending any text to server. It supports rule-based filtering and AI model-based redaction (eg openai privacy filter). It's open source and free. Please check out the repo and https://pii-gui.vercel.app/

    I built a local data lake for AI powered data engineering and analyticsApr 2026 · stream-sock-3f5.notion.site · ▲14

    I got tired of the overhead required to run even a simple data analysis - cloud setup, ETL pipelines, orchestration, cost monitoring - so I built a fully local data-stack/IDE where I can write SQL/Py, run it, see results, and iterate quickly and interactively. You get data lake like catalog, zero-ETL, lineage, versioning, and analytics running entirely on your machine. You can import from a database, webpage, CSV, etc. and query in natural language or do your own work in SQL/Pyspark. Connect to local models like Gemma or cloud LLMs like Claude for querying and analysis. You…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
