ScribeDog is a native desktop Markdown editor (Windows/Linux) with true WYSIWYG editing - no raw # or * characters. Select any text and let AI rewrite, extend, translate, or check grammar - or open the agentic AI chat, which reads your document and proposes edits itself. Dictate by voice, entirely offline.
Switch on the knowledge base and the AI answers from your whole folder of notes, listing its sources - opt-in and searched locally. Or drag any note or text file onto the chat and ask about it.
Run AI fully local via Ollama, Jan.ai, or LM Studio (no data leaves your device), or opt in to a cloud provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral) with your own API key.
AI edits stream in as a live preview - accept, discard, or refine. Version history lets you diff and restore any save. Link notes with backlinks, write distraction-free in Zen mode.
Import Word, PDF, HTML, or OCR images; export to PDF, DOCX, ODT, HTML. 100% open source (MIT), no telemetry, no account.
