Hyperlink is like Perplexity for your local files. It turns your computer into an AI second brain — 100% private and local. It understands every document, note, and images on your computer — letting you ask in natural language and get cited answers instantly. It has a consumer-grade UI to let you interact with local AI easily with zero setup.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m Alex, CEO & founder of Nexa AI.
We built Hyperlink because local search on computers hasn’t evolved in 20 years.
Desktop search finds files — not answers. Cloud AI understands context — but trades your privacy to do it.
We wanted both: intelligence and privacy.
How it started
We began with a simple question:
“What if ChatGPT lived inside your computer — not in the cloud?”
That became Hyperlink — your on-device AI Super Assistant that understands all your documents, notes, and images, and gives cited answers instantly, 100% offline.
It’s like having your own private ChatGPT that knows your files, runs locally on CPU/GPU/NPU, and never sends data out.
What Hyperlink does
Understands everything you’ve saved on computer — PDFs, notes, screenshots, slides.
Answers in natural language with citations — “What did we decide in last week’s strategy doc?” → instant sourced answer.
Searches with natural language, not by keywords — it gets context.
Works fully offline — privacy by design.
What’s different
Most search tools only find keywords. Most AI tools live in the cloud.
Hyperlink bridges that gap:
Local-first intelligence: everything runs directly on your device — no data ever leaves.
Unlimited file context: understands and connects thousands of files and stays in sync.
Agentic RAG: quality rivaling cloud AI
No setup, no CLI: always-there floating UI built for anyone.
Try Hyperlink today — see what your own computer already knows about you.

@alexchen4ai This sounds like a fantastic leap forward for personal knowledge management and privacy! The idea of a local, intelligent AI assistant that truly understands all my files is incredibly appealing. How does Hyperlink handle the computational load of processing "thousands of files" locally, especially on devices with more limited resources?🤔

@alexchen4ai @lvyanghuang Thanks for your support. Hyperlink is powered by our inference engine called NexaML which provides leading performance for local AI inference. Besides, we did a ton of optimization in the agentic RAG pipeline to further improve the performance.

Hyperlink turns your computer into an AI second brain — understanding every document, note, and image you’ve saved. It answers in natural language, cites the exact files it draws from, and runs entirely on-device — no cloud, no data sent out.
The magic happens when local context meets intelligence. Our product has been widely acknowledged by our partners: https://hyperlink.nexa.ai/
As Gerardo Delgado Cabrera from NVIDIA said, “Hyperlink makes LLMs more useful by combining them with local file context and helping users find information faster.”
Jovi Chi from AMD called it “a super AI assistant — secure, smart, and able to give clear, well-reasoned answers.”
And Dr. Vinesh Sukumar from Qualcomm noted, “Hyperlink delivers state-of-the-art retrieval and generation across your entire laptop.”
We’re just getting started — bringing true personal intelligence to every device.

This is amazing. Congrats on the launch
Apart from file context, does it also have context to troubleshoot OS-specific errors?

I've been using this tool as a local AI in pairing with my Obsidian vault. While I'm still early in using it, so far it's been so much easier and more useful than any of the local AI tools within Obsidian itself. Beyond that I can use it for local files on my laptop, even better! Great launch and can't wait to test more!

@ryan_snyder2 Thanks Ryan for your support! Obsidian vault is the perfect knowledge base to leverage Hyperlink for. Hyperlink can truly turn your obsidian vault into an AI second brain.
Hi @alexchen4ai I’m wondering how data privacy is handled in this tool. Since it connects and processes content locally is there any chance that user data or metadata could be sent back to their servers for analytics, telemetry, or profiling purposes?
In other words how can we be sure there’s no background syncing or data leakage happening behind the scenes?
NexaSDK for Mobile
@alexchen4ai @kanstantsin_halets No we don't send any of your file and query data to the servers. You can disable internet for the Hyperlink app and see it still working. However, downloading the model still requires internet.
Very cool! You’ve outplayed Siri on Mac — they’re only just planning to implement this)

@mykyta_semenov_ Hyperlink works amazing on Mac. We are moving much faster. Looking forward to hearing your feedback.
Google has integrated Gemini into drive. So now if you open anything on Google drive there is a pop up of gemini that according to me does all the functions that you do. Plz tell me if there is any function that you offer that the likes of gemini and NotebookLm do not offer?
