KnowNote
A local-first AI knowledge base & NotebookLM alternative
KnowNote is a local-first, open-source AI knowledge base and notebook application created as an Electron-based alternative to Google NotebookLM that emphasizes privacy, control, and simplicity. It lets users build an intelligent, searchable knowledge base from uploaded documents such as PDFs, Word files, PowerPoints, and web pages, and then interact with that content using LLM-powered chat, summarization, and reasoning tools.
