Why PortableRAG exists

I built PortableRAG because the documents people most want AI help with are often the ones they cannot safely upload to cloud tools. Lawyers with client files. Doctors with patient records. Founders with cap tables and board notes. The more sensitive the document, the more useful AI would be — and the less anyone can risk sending it to someone else's server.

PortableRAG is my attempt to close that gap: a private AI workspace that runs on your own computer, so you get the benefit of AI-assisted document search without the trade-off.

Mission

Make private AI accessible to everyone.

Vision

A local AI workspace for every professional.

PortableRAG is being built in the open. It's early software and improving quickly — you'll see it evolve based on real feedback from early testers.

Code & repositories

The PortableRAG desktop app is currently closed-source and in active private development — there is no public build yet. What's implemented versus planned is tracked on the roadmap. Release artifacts will be published on the Download page once a build exists.
