KnowNote
A local-first AI knowledge base & NotebookLM alternative
...Unlike many NotebookLM alternatives that rely on Docker or cloud deployments, KnowNote runs natively on desktop platforms without complex setup, meaning all data stays local unless the user opts to integrate with self-managed or private LLM APIs. Its retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) system offers semantic search and traceable source references, and it supports multiple LLM providers through a flexible plugin-style provider architecture.
