30 chars Local AI for your whole life
140 chars Local Pocket is the AI assistant that already knows you — your email, calendar, health, money, and notes — and never leaves your Mac.
170 chars (App Store subtitle) The private AI that understands your whole life — email, calendar, health, finance, contacts, notes — running entirely on your Mac. No cloud, no telemetry.

50-word pitch

Local Pocket is a privacy-first desktop AI assistant. It indexes your personal data — email, calendar, health, finance, contacts, and notes — and answers questions about your life using a local LLM running on your Mac. Open-source, MIT-licensed, and zero-telemetry by design.

140-word pitch

Tools like ChatGPT know the world. Apple Notes knows your notes. Neither one knows you. Local Pocket does. It runs a small but capable AI inside a native macOS app and connects to your email, calendar, health, money, contacts, and files — so you can ask questions like "what did Sarah and I agree on last week?" and get an answer with the original threads attached. Every byte stays on your Mac: no cloud, no analytics, no account, no API keys. It's MIT open-source, audit it yourself. Local Pocket is built by Atul Kapoor, a senior systems engineer in Bangalore. v2.1.0 ships in May 2026 with companion apps for iOS, Android, and Windows on the way. It's a serious answer to the question: "why doesn't my AI assistant know anything about me?"

Quote (pre-baked, may be reused without prior permission)

"Cloud AI knows everything about the world but nothing about you. Local Pocket flips that — it knows you, and nothing leaves your machine. That's the only architecture I trust with my own email."
— Atul Kapoor, founder, Local Pocket
