OpenDocuments is an open source, self-hosted RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) platform that connects scattered organizational documents and lets you search and ask questions using AI with source citations.
Unlike cloud-only solutions, OpenDocuments can run entirely on your own infrastructure with local LLMs via Ollama. Your data can stay inside your network.
