   Your Thoughtful Local Memory Assistant

What is IMOS?

IMOS is a powerful command-line tool that transforms your scattered notes, documents, and ideas into an intelligent, searchable knowledge base. Think of it as having a personal AI assistant that knows everything you've ever written and can instantly find relevant information when you need it.

Privacy Matters

Your data is yoursβ€”always. IMOS is designed to run entirely on your local machine, and never stores, shares, or uploads your personal notes, files, or memories to any external server. All knowledge, insights, and action items remain strictly private, giving independent professionals full control over their information at every step. We believe your productivity should not come at the cost of your privacy.
