Cursor for your memory. 100% private, open-source & free.
Lore is a lightweight "second brain" that lives in your system tray. Summon it with a keystroke to capture ideas, notes, or tasks instantly. Why Lore? 🛡️ 100% Private: Your data never leaves your machine. No API keys, no tracking. 🧠 Local AI: Powered by Ollama + LanceDB for secure, offline-first RAG. ⚡ Instant Recall: Ask questions in plain language and get answers from your own history. Own your memory. 100% local. Zero cloud.
Lore uses RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) with local LLM and vector embeddings to find relevant context from stored notes when users ask questions in plain language, returning contextual answers without cloud queries
Lore includes built-in todo management features allowing users to add, list, complete, and organize tasks with priorities and categories, all stored locally with no external service dependencies
Lore structures captured data into a vectorized database designed to support future personal agents; as data accumulates, the system can reason over context in ways reflecting the user's actual thinking patterns and workflows
Lore provides a system-tray popup (Ctrl+Shift+Space) for instant thought capture with automatic classification and local vector database storage, enabling private, searchable personal knowledge management entirely on the user's machine
