Localia RAG · open source · 100% local · MIT

Chat with your documents,
100% on your machine.

Localia RAG is a free, open-source tool: drop your files in a folder, run one command, and a chat window opens in your browser. It answers from your documents and cites the source — nothing ever leaves your computer. Built on top of Ollama.

why
🔒
Private

Your documents, your index and your questions stay on your machine. No cloud, no API key, no account.

Simple

One command. A browser chat window opens automatically — as easy as Ollama. No database, no Docker required.

📄
Grounded

Answers cite the source file, and it says “I can't find it” instead of making things up.
