Khoj Inc.

Khoj Inc. builds an open-source AI assistant that users can operate privately on their own hardware or deploy as a cloud service. Marketed as a “second brain,” the application ingests local documents, web pages, and real-time search results, then lets individuals query that material through natural-language chat, retrieve cited answers, and spawn persistent agents that perform scheduled research or automate multi-step workflows. Typical use cases include scholars who need semantic search across dense PDF libraries, analysts who want summarized briefings drawn from both internal notes and live internet sources, and developers who embed Khoj endpoints into Slack bots or personal knowledge bases. The same codebase can be installed as a lightweight desktop program, a headless Docker container, or a server cluster, giving small teams, startups, and privacy-conscious enterprises a self-controlled alternative to hosted LLM subscriptions. Features such as plug-in extensions, custom model support, and an automation scheduler allow the software to evolve from simple Q&A into a background co-worker that continuously gathers data, drafts reports, or triggers external APIs. Khoj software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads delivered through trusted Windows package sources like winget, always installing the latest release and supporting batch installation alongside other applications.
