Eclaire

Eclaire is an open source, local first AI assistant for personal and organizational data. It brings tasks, notes, documents, photos and bookmarks into one place and uses AI to organize, answer questions about and automate work across them, with processing and storage kept on the user's own device or infrastructure. It suits privacy conscious individuals and organizations that want an assistant over their information without sending it to a third party cloud. The assistant runs on open source models such as Qwen, Gemma, DeepSeek and Kimi, and has tools to search, organize and create content. Documents in formats including PDF, Word, Excel, HTML and PowerPoint get summaries, extraction, question answering and full text search. Photos are tagged, categorized, analyzed for objects and run through OCR, with support for JPEG, PNG, HEIC, WEBP and other formats. Bookmarks are fetched for offline reading and converted to readable text or PDF, notes support rich text and Markdown, and tasks can be scheduled, recurring or assigned to the AI to complete. Content arrives through the web app, mobile share sheets, Apple Shortcuts, Android intents and API connectors, and developers can build on its APIs. The software is free to self host from its GitHub repository. No paid plans are published; the business offering, which covers custom trained models, private cloud deployment, deeper integrations and dedicated support, is arranged by contacting the team, so it is quote based. Because Eclaire is self hosted, the quality and speed of its AI features depend on the hardware and the local models a user chooses to run.
