Kortex Chat
The private "ChatGPT" for your desktop.
Hey Indie Hackers,
This milestone feels special. I've finished the core features for Kortex Chat, which started as my personal "AI playground".
While my other PLYIA apps were focused on solving specific problems, Kortex Chat was where I had fun and experimented with the coolest features I could think of. I spent weeks just playing around, implementing fun systems like an agentic mode where the AI can "think" and reflect on its own answers to improve them, or a RAG pipeline to chat with my own files.
It was my space to push the boundaries of what I thought was possible with local AI. Now, it has become a central part of the suite. It's a great reminder that sometimes the most exciting products come from just having fun and building what you're passionate about.
About
I wanted the power of ChatGPT but with absolute privacy for my sensitive docs. Kortex Chat is a versatile, local AI assistant that lets you chat with your own files, analyze images, and search the web securely.
