CLUSTER ANSWERS-BASE-DOCUMENTS · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-06-24
Self-hosted private AI research assistants
This cluster consists of self-hosted AI tools that answer questions strictly from user-uploaded documents, functioning as private research assistants or team knowledge bases. All 11 members were dated before the index start, with entries rising from 2 in November 2025 to 4 in January 2026, then declining to 1 each in March and July 2026. No member shows meaningful traction: the highest-signal members (insights-lm-public-unclean, securedocai, Dee) each have 0 stars. The cluster uniformly emphasizes source-grounded answers and privacy, with no apparent differentiation in collaboration or multimedia support.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
