Khoj: Open-Source Local Personal AI
Aiden_Tech_Ai · x · 2026-07-10
Khoj is an open-source personal AI that runs locally on your own machine. It can connect to local models and use PDFs, Markdown files, Word documents, Notion pages, and even entire Obsidian knowledge bases as data sources. You can ask questions in natural language to help retrieve, summarize, and locate content within your personal notes and documents. The post emphasizes that its core selling point is "keeping data local": users can choose to connect to local models like Llama, Qwen, Gemma, and Mistral, or use online models as needed. The author believes this better protects private thoughts, unfinished ideas, and client data compared to handing one's "second brain" over to cloud companies.
