📖 Librarian

Drop in your documents. Get back a clean, classified, searchable library. Processing stays local until you connect an external AI provider.

Download for Apple Silicon Intel Mac: CLI / API

macOS 14 or newer · free & open source · all releases

🗂 Drag & drop anything

PDFs, Word documents, Markdown, plain text, transcripts, and scanned images — drop them anywhere in the window.

✨ Cleaned & classified

Documents are converted and filed under Dewey-style labels, with optional AI cleaning, source-grounded refinement, and live progress.

🔍 Instant full-text search

Search the cleaned library with highlighted snippets, then export results as Markdown, text, or JSON.

🔒 Local first

The whole engine runs inside the app on your Mac. Nothing leaves your machine unless you connect an LLM provider.

Install in three steps

  1. Download the Apple Silicon DMG (Apple menu → About This Mac shows your chip).
  2. Open it and drag Librarian into Applications.
  3. Launch Librarian, connect a model in Settings if you want AI cleaning, and drop in your first file.

Release DMGs are signed and notarized for macOS 14 or newer. Intel Macs can run the Python CLI/API; no Intel DMG is published.
