What is kuku?

kuku is a native, local-first Markdown knowledge base for macOS, built with Tauri instead of Electron. It provides a fast, offline-first workspace where users can write, link, and search their notes using plain files, with AI assistance for searching, editing, and linking content. The app emphasizes no cloud lock-in and full data ownership.

How to use kuku?

  • Download the macOS app from the website, no sign-up required. Once installed, create or open a vault of Markdown files. Use the editor to write notes with wikilinks and backlinks, and leverage the AI chat to search, edit, or link notes with reviewable diffs. Optionally, bring your own Gemini API key for AI features, or use the managed Pro plan for sync and AI infrastructure.
