Turn scattered notes into a connected knowledge graph
Atomic is a self-hosted, AI-native knowledge base. Write notes, get a semantic graph. Ask questions, get cited answers from your own content. Auto-generates wiki articles as your knowledge grows. MCP server built-in for Claude/Cursor. Local-first. Open source. Everything you know, connected.
Agentic Chat lets users converse with their notes using RAG. The system cites source atoms and does not invent information. Integration with Claude and Cursor via MCP allows AI assistants to access the user's notes directly.
Atomic turns freeform markdown notes into a semantically-connected knowledge graph. Auto-tagging assigns hierarchical tags automatically, semantic search finds ideas by meaning rather than keywords, and a spatial canvas visualizes relationships as a force-directed graph where related ideas drift toward each other.
Wiki Synthesis picks any tag and generates a full wiki article from every note, clip, and saved page underneath, with inline citations linking back to source atoms. Articles regenerate incrementally as new content is added, supporting proposal flows for review before publishing.
Atomic runs as a local-first desktop app, self-hosted server, or iOS app. Users control their own hardware and model choices. One server acts as the source of truth; every client (desktop, iOS, browser, MCP) syncs to it, enabling multi-device access while maintaining full data ownership.
RSS and URL ingestion allow users to save web pages and subscribe to feeds. The browser extension clips content directly. Saved pages become atoms tagged and embedded automatically, making web research discoverable through semantic search without manual organization.
