PersonalOS
Your cognitive extension, running entirely on-device.
Overview
PersonalOS is a privacy-first personal assistant for macOS that combines knowledge management, task automation, and intelligent capture—with 100% local processing. No cloud, no data leaving your device, no privacy compromise.
The Problem
Knowledge workers are torn between powerful cloud assistants that harvest their data, local tools that lack AI capabilities, fragmented capture across apps, and no system that learns their context over time.
The Solution
- Smart Capture — AI-powered tagging and categorization, entirely local
- Menu Bar Access — Global hotkey (⌘K) for instant capture from anywhere
- Voice Input — Whisper transcription running on-device
- Knowledge Graph — Connections between captured items surface automatically
- Chat Interface — Natural language queries against your personal knowledge base
- System Integration — Calendar, Reminders, and Focus mode awareness
