Local document search and memory for AI agents

Linkly AI indexes files on your computer so AI tools can search, read, compare, and cite relevant material. It works as a local knowledge layer for agents and assistants, rather than as a standalone autonomous agent.

Agenticness = how independently a tool can take action, scored across 9 dimensions. Scored independently by David Kooi, Skylark Creations — see full rubric → Last re-evaluated 21 September 2026.
