remio 2.0 - Captures your work to build a searchable knowledge base

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Andrew. After 10+ years at NetEase and being a long-time power user of knowledge systems, I’ve built remio to finally alleviate those second brain headaches we all face.

The reality? As knowledge workers, we are stuck copy-pasting context just to get a decent answer. We spend more time digging through scattered Slack threads, Google Docs, and local files than actually doing the work.

So we built a Second Brain to end those headaches for you:

1. Connect once: It automatically indexes your full context—web history, local files, Slack messages, emails, meetings and more.

2. Maintenance-free: Forget manual tagging or organizing. Just ask remio to do the dirty work: find anything in seconds, generate your daily recap, or recall details you’ve forgotten.

3. Local-first by design: No more vendor-lockin and cloud leaks. All the data stored locally on your device, also enjoy the 100% data security with BYOK.

Stop organizing, start chatting. Get tailored answers with your second brain today!

When information starts to pile up, what I appreciate about remio is that it doesn’t try to be louder or more complex.

A lot of knowledge tools respond to overload by adding more structure, more automation, more “smart” features. remio feels like it’s making a quieter choice — helping information stay usable instead of just better organized. From a user perspective, that difference really matters.

As a first impression, it feels less like a productivity hack and more like a system designed to reduce mental clutter, which is refreshing in this category.

I love that the transcription and indexing happen locally without sending audio to the cloud. It’s the only way I'd ever record a confidential meeting.

Just upvoted! 🚀 Huge congrats to Andrew @andrew_wy and the remio team on the 2.0 launch. As someone drowning in siloed tabs/files/Slack threads, the “zero-effort Second Brain” vision hits home! Love how it auto-indexes everything locally — no more cloud paranoia 😅. The “find anything in seconds” promise? Game-changer for weekly recaps!

One tiny ask: could future versions add a “priority context” toggle? Sometimes I want remio to focus only on recent project files vs. all-history. Might help keep answers extra sharp! Either way, stoked to try this.

Question for the team: do you plan to integrate with niche tools like Tate-A-Tate platform soon? 👀

Locally processed transcription is perfect for my confidential client meetings. I get the notes I need without leaking any secrets to the cloud.

Interesting concept! @andrew_wy Congrats on the launch, this looks like a thoughtful take on personal knowledge management, especially with the local-first approach, which seems great for privacy and performance.

I was wondering about how you balance local privacy guarantees vs. cloud/AI functionality. For example:

• I see that notes, highlights, and collections stay on the device unless the user chooses to sync — that’s a strong privacy posture. But in practice, do users worry about how “Ask remio” interactions are routed when they involve cloud models (e.g., whether those temporary logs might expose sensitive context)?

• Also, for users who want bring-your-own-key (BYOK) setups, how does that affect privacy vs. usability trade-offs?

Curious to hear how you balance user expectations of privacy, local processing, and AI capabilities in real usage patterns!

Congrats @andrew_wy! How has Remio changed since it's first launch?

Thank you @andrew_wy

I tend to pay close attention to any second-brain product.

I’ll give Remio a try and see if it can help with my scattered notes and the friction around retrieving and actually using them.

I'm impressed by how fast the initial indexing process is, even for large folders. The remio engine is clearly optimized for performance.

I think what we need more is an assistant who can remember and do anything in work
