Khoj: An AI Assistant for Knowledge Management
Khoj is an innovative AI personal assistant designed to enhance knowledge management by enabling efficient search and interaction with personal notes, documents, and images. This open-source tool is compatible with various platforms, including Emacs and Obsidian, and supports multiple file formats such as jpeg, markdown, and PDF. Its semantic search capabilities allow for quick and relevant results based on natural language queries, making it a powerful tool for users seeking to streamline their information retrieval process.
The application operates offline, ensuring data privacy and independence from internet connectivity when self-hosted. Khoj aims to function as an extension of the user’s brain by learning from their notes and documents, thereby assisting in faster decision-making. The chat capabilities facilitate natural, multi-turn conversations, while plugin integrations enhance its functionality. A cloud-hosted version is currently in development, promising to offer users an always-available assistant without the complexities of self-hosting.
