Ekorbia is a native Integrated Productivity Environment (IPE) for local models — your conversations, prompts, and indexed files live entirely on your machine. No cloud. No API keys. No telemetry.
Embeddings run on CPU, in milliseconds, with
nomic-embed-text. Index your notes, your journal, your
~/Documents
— nothing leaves your laptop.
Streams responses with a stop button. SQLite + FTS5 underneath. Sub-millisecond cold-start of the overlay. Cold-warming-loaded model state visible in the status bar.
Prompts are
.md
files with YAML frontmatter on your disk.
Git-friendly. Shareable. Editable in any editor — no
proprietary database to hold them hostage.
Every prompt is a markdown file on your disk. Five colored favorites for personal buckets, flat tag filters, full-text search across name, body, and tags — and over 20 well-tuned built-ins ship with the app.
A spotlight-style panel that pops up over any app and quietly answers — without stealing focus from your editor, your terminal, or your browser. Auto-hides on blur or esc.
Point Ekorbia at a folder, an RSS feed, or any public URL — and let it summarise what changes, on its own cadence, into a notes file you can chat with later.
Attach
.md,
.txt,
.pdf
files or whole directory trees. Small files are inlined
verbatim; large ones are chunked, embedded locally, and
retrieved per-query — with clickable
[N]
citations.
Multi-tab chat with independent histories per tab. Tabs with attached files show a paperclip + count so you can see context coverage at a glance. And every word of every reply is BM25-ranked and full-text searchable.
