About

kuku is a local-first Markdown knowledge base for macOS built with Tauri, offering wikilinks, backlinks, and graph view on plain files. It integrates AI that can search, edit, and link your vault with reviewable, Cursor-style diffs while keeping everything offline and in your control. The project is open source and targets users who want a fast, native note-taking experience without cloud dependency or vendor lock-in.

Problem

Knowledge workers lose context and struggle to connect ideas across their notes without a fast, local, AI-enhanced workspace that respects their privacy.

For

macOS users who want a fast, offline-first markdown knowledge base with AI capabilities

How it works

kuku runs natively on macOS using Tauri, stores notes as plain Markdown files locally, and uses AI to search, suggest links, and apply reviewable edits to your vault without sending data to the cloud.
