Updates, guides, and behind-the-scenes from the team.
We wanted a notes app that stayed out of the way, kept files on our own disk, and treated AI as a tool — not the product. Here's the story.
Yoinko doesn't lock you into one AI provider. Use OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Ollama, or anything OpenAI-compatible. We explain the architecture.
Your files on your disk is not a limitation — it's a feature. We break down why local-first beats cloud-only for knowledge work.
Describe an image in the chat, and yoinko creates it via DALL-E, Imagen, or your own endpoint. Here's how it works under the hood.
One curl command. One npm run dev. That's it. A walkthrough of our setup script and why we made onboarding dead simple.
