## What is Local AI Notes?

local-ai-notes turns your notes into a structured knowledge system 
that organizes itself.

Type anything — your notes are automatically clustered by meaning 
using machine learning that runs entirely on your iPhone. No cloud, 
no API calls, no tracking.

KEY FEATURES

- Automatic Semantic Clustering
Notes group themselves by topic using on-device embeddings. No 
manual folders, no manual tagging.

- Slash Commands
/remind for reminders, /ask to query your notes, /calendar for 
events, /tag for tags, /lock for biometric protection.

- Voice Input
Speak naturally — local speech recognition transcribes and routes 
your input to the right action.

- Knowledge Graph
See how your notes connect. Force-directed visualization of 
semantic relationships.

- Smart Mode (Optional)
Download an on-device AI model (Gemma 3 or LFM2.5) for natural 
language answers grounded in your notes.

PRIVACY-FIRST

Everything runs on your device. We don't have servers. We don't 
track. We don't analyze. We can't see your notes — even if we 
wanted to. Your data is encrypted at rest, biometrically locked, 
and never leaves your iPhone.

REQUIREMENTS

- iOS 17 or later
- iPhone XS or newer recommended
- Smart Mode requires additional 1-3 GB free storage
