Introduction

Pinfig – Think visually. Work locally. Use AI that respects your privacy.

Welcome to Pinfig 👋

Think visually. Work locally. Use AI on your terms.

A local-first workspace where boards, AI, and your ideas live on your machine — not in the cloud.

Most tools are built around storing your information. Pinfig is built around thinking with it.

There is a difference between capturing notes and actually making sense of them. Capture is easy — every app does it. The harder part is the moment after: connecting ideas, finding patterns, turning scattered input into something you can act on. That is what Pinfig is designed for.

Local-first, AI-native

Pinfig runs on your machine. Your boards, your notes, your documents — all stored locally, all available offline. No account required to get started.

AI is built into the core, not bolted on. Local LLMs run directly on your device, so your content never leaves unless you choose. You can also bring your own API key for any provider you prefer. Either way, the AI works alongside you — in your boards, your editor, your PDFs — without sending your data to a third party by default.

What you can do with Pinfig

Think visually — infinite boards, concept maps, kanban, slides, and a rich inline editor. Lay out your ideas in the format that fits how you actually think.

Work with AI — generate diagrams, chat with your content, create flashcards, podcasts, and FAQs from your notes. AI that works in context, not in a separate tab.

Collaborate without a server — P2P collaboration means you can work with others without routing anything through the cloud.

Own your data — everything is local by default. No sync unless you want it, no account required, no vendor lock-in.

Who it is for

Pinfig is for people who think in connections — researchers, writers, designers, engineers, students — anyone who finds linear note-taking limiting and wants a workspace that keeps up with how they actually think.
