Local Knowledge System

Your documents.
Your AI. On your hardware.

Arclade brings document capture, search, private AI, notifications, backups, signed updates, and optional remote access into one guided local system.

One system

From documents to searchable knowledge.

The pieces that normally take hours of setup are brought together behind one Control Center.

01

Document capture

Bring in PDFs and scanned documents, organize them, and make their contents searchable.

02

Private local AI

Ask questions across your local knowledge system using an AI model running on your own machine.

03

Control Center

See service health, versions, performance, backups, updates, and status in one place.

04

Signed updates

Update packages are validated before installation, with rollback support built into the updater.

05

Private notifications

Receive document and system notifications without turning your library into a cloud document service.

06

Remote access

Optionally connect with Tailscale, or keep the entire system local.

Built around ownership

Your files stay under your control.

Arclade is designed around local storage and local services. The download is hosted online; your document library and AI environment run on your machine.
