What is this?
Linkly AI is a free AI knowledge base, a standalone AI context layer running locally. With Linkly AI, you can:- Build AI-native knowledge bases from any documents and directories on your computer
- Quickly retrieve accurate context to use with any AI chatbot
- Use it as a tool that can be directly accessed by AI chatbots and agents supporting protocols like MCP
- Trace knowledge sources and find the origin of references
- Not another AI chatbot
- Not another note-taking app, you continue writing notes in your favorite note-taking software
- Not a knowledge base that requires frequent importing and switching
Who is it for?
Linkly AI is built for all knowledge workers, creators, students, researchers, and small teams who struggle with managing large amounts of knowledge fragments. Have you ever faced these challenges?Information Overload
PDFs, DOCXs, web pages, notes and other documents scattered everywhere,
making them hard to find and overwhelming to read
Time-Consuming Organization
Manually classifying, tagging, and creating folders takes far more time than
it’s worth
Inefficient Search
Finding documents relies on memory and filenames, while the content you need
is hidden somewhere in a file you only vaguely remember
Knowledge Hoarding Without Utilization
Content collected and organized with great effort remains unused, creating
vast “knowledge inventory” that provides little value
Inaccurate Answers and Hallucinations
Inaccurate Answers and Hallucinations
Most AI knowledge bases use only simple RAG to search document fragments,
with poor results.
Concerning Data Privacy
Concerning Data Privacy
Most AI knowledge bases run in the cloud, forcing us to upload our data to
their servers. If security issues arise or service providers misuse data,
our private information could be compromised.Some providers have even used user data to train their models.
Limited Capacity and High Costs
Limited Capacity and High Costs
Most AI knowledge bases offer only a few GB of free capacity, and require
paid subscriptions for more features and the best models.
Creating New Problems
Creating New Problems
AI knowledge bases were meant to solve the problem of scattered knowledge
management, but users end up having to move knowledge between multiple AI
applications, defeating the purpose.Unable to manage conveniently in one place, unable to use in your most
frequently used AI applications, always requiring extra effort for
migration.
