AI chat
Claude, embedded in your app, with full context of your company and none of your keys.
Product
Everything your company runs on. In one app.
Four products’ worth of capability, woven together by an AI that respects your secrets, all on one machine.
The living wiki
Knowledge that maintains itself.
Karpathy’s LLM-wiki pattern, built for a company. Seven AI operations keep it alive: ingest a source, query it back with citations, and lint it for rot, all from your own verified pages.
- Index-first answers.
- Full-text search narrows to the right pages; the AI synthesises an answer and cites each one as a [[wikilink]].
- eslint, for knowledge.
- A daily scan flags orphans, dead links, stale claims, gaps and unfiled pages: cheap SQL, no AI cost.
- Every source is immutable.
- Imported sources are write-once and hash-checked, so a claim can always be traced to where it came from.
Knowledge graph
Obsidian-grade, and the AI can walk it.
Every [[link]] is resolved by one shared engine: for rendering, for linting, and for the AI. A local and a global graph view make your whole company browsable.
- Structure-only traversal.
- The AI sees slugs, titles and edges to build multi-hop context: never page bodies, never secrets.
- Bring your own vault.
- Import a real Obsidian folder; lodos becomes the primary editor and exports back to plain markdown anytime.
Skills
Your company as versioned playbooks.
Twenty-four procedures ship in the box: weekly metrics, refunds, ADRs, post-mortems, spec writing, security review, office hours. Write your own, and a fail-closed scanner checks it before it can ever be saved.
- Instruction-only, always.
- A skill orchestrates tools; it can’t run code or hold a secret. The host enforces its allowed-tools list. Escalation is impossible.
- An open standard, extended.
- lodos skills are a wire-compatible superset of the Agent Skills standard, so the ecosystem stays reachable.
Tasks & workflows
Intent in. Finished work out.
Kanban tasks the AI can read, plan and move. Turn a repeating one into a declarative workflow, drafted by the AI, approved by you, with secrets injected only at runtime.
- Human-in-the-loop by default.
- Anything that touches the outside world surfaces an approval first. You stay one tap from every action.
- Dashboard widgets.
- Pin a workflow’s latest result to your home screen: a number, a chart, an overdue flag. Rendered, never executed.
The vault
Encryption you can name.
Every secret is encrypted on your device before it ever hits disk. No custom crypto: just audited, standard primitives, with per-section keys and a tamper-evident audit chain.
- Two stores, one wall.
- Secrets live end-to-end encrypted; your queryable business data lives beside them, and the AI only ever references, never reads.
- Recover without us.
- A 160-bit recovery key is generated on your device and never stored by us. Your keys are yours to keep.
And everything else your company runs on.
One app. Your whole company.
Documents
Drop in a PDF, Word, Excel or CSV. Parsed on-device in a sandbox, added to your knowledge, never uploaded.
Analytics
Query your business data and chart it, read-only and on-device, with vault and billing tables off-limits.
Presentations
Turn a brief into a deck with one prompt. Rendered offline, scanned for secrets, fully yours.
Memory
Long-term recall of your decisions and preferences: distilled, encrypted, and never holding a secret.
Encrypted sync
Optional backup and multi-device sync. The server stores only ciphertext it can never decrypt.
Audit trail
An append-only, HMAC-signed record of every secret access and edit, cryptographically tamper-evident.
How it compares
One app where you used to need six.
Notion, Linear, Jira, Obsidian, 1Password and Cursor each nail one piece. lodos is the only one that does all of it: locally, and without ever showing your AI a secret.
| lodos | Notion | Linear | Jira | Obsidian | 1Password | Cursor | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knowledge wiki | Linear has lightweight Docs; lodos gives you a full AI-maintained wiki that answers with citations and lints itself. | ||||||
| Obsidian-style graph | |||||||
| Tasks & kanban | |||||||
| Workflows & automation | Notion’s automations are template rules; lodos workflows are AI-drafted, call your own APIs and inject secrets at runtime. | Linear has triggers and SLAs; lodos workflows act on your data and tools, not just issue state. | |||||
| Zero-knowledge secret vault | |||||||
| Built-in AI agent | Notion AI writes and summarises text; lodos’s agent reads your data and runs tasks through your own tools. | Linear’s AI triages and drafts; lodos’s agent executes end-to-end work across your whole company. | Atlassian Intelligence assists inside Jira; lodos’s agent works across vault, wiki and tasks together. | Obsidian’s AI depends on plugins; lodos ships a built-in agent with your company’s full context. | |||
| Local-first, fully offline | 1Password caches offline but is tied to a cloud account; lodos is local-first and runs with no account at all. | ||||||
| Your whole company, one app |
