Rowboat is an open-source AI coworker with memory, designed to live on your machine, connect to your work tools, and turn your daily tasks into a long-lived knowledge graph. It helps you prepare for meetings, draft documents, track projects, and automate workflows — all while keeping your data private and editable in plain Markdown.
🔑 What Rowboat Does
Local-first AI coworker → Stores everything on your machine, no proprietary lock-in.
Memory that compounds → Builds a knowledge graph from emails, meetings, and notes, so context accumulates over time.
Action-oriented → Drafts briefs, emails, docs, and even PDF decks using your ongoing context.
Meeting prep → Pulls past decisions, open questions, and threads into crisp summaries.
Voice integration → Record memos or generate voice notes with Deepgram/ElevenLabs.
Live notes → Auto-updated notes that track people, projects, or competitors across platforms.
⚙️ How It’s Different
Most AI tools reconstruct context on demand.
Rowboat maintains long-lived, inspectable memory → You can edit, back up, or delete everything.
Works with local models (Ollama, LM Studio) or hosted ones (bring your own API key).
Extensible via Model Context Protocol (MCP) → Connect to tools like Slack, Jira, GitHub, Exa search, or custom internal systems.
