Erudi Desktop runs powerful language models entirely on your machine and grounds them in your own documents. Drop in your files, ask questions, and get answers backed by your private knowledge base. On a plane, in a bunker, completely offline. Your data never leaves your device.
Summarise these 4 PDFs I just dropped in.
ERUDI AIRead all four on-device. Pulled the key dates, owners and open risks into one brief. Nothing left your laptop.
macOS (Apple Silicon, M1 or later), Windows and Linux. No account. No telemetry.
Most AI tools quietly ship your prompts, your documents and your data off to someone else's servers. Erudi Desktop does the opposite. Everything runs locally, on hardware you own. Pull the network cable and it keeps working, exactly the same.
Drag in PDFs, notes, transcripts or spreadsheets. Erudi cleans and structures them automatically, on-device, with nothing uploaded.
Erudi reads and indexes everything into a private, on-device knowledge base. No CLI, no Python, no cloud credits. It all happens on your computer while you watch.
Ask questions and get answers grounded in your sources, with citations. Online or offline, on your terms, your knowledge base is yours to keep.
Your data never leaves your machine. Ask questions and get answers with total confidence.
Drag, drop, ask. Your files become a private knowledge base the model draws on to answer.
Compare answers from different local models side by side, then keep the one you trust.
Automatic cleaning, chunking and indexing. From raw files to a searchable knowledge base.
Download Erudi Desktop, drop in your data, and keep everything on your side of the screen.
