Kingy AI Take
note.md launched a local-first Mac research workspace that turns cited notes and documentation into local LLM memory for private search, with a public pricing page and a dated Product Hunt listing (notemd.org). Researchers, Students, and Writers who want semantic search without sending papers to a cloud model are the fit. Local-model performance and export behavior vary by machine, so confirm both and current App Store pricing before importing a large library.
Who it is for
Researchers, students, and academic writers who want local search across papers, citations, and Markdown notes on a Mac.
