When you're managing sensitive tasks or need control over your environment, relying on the cloud doesn't always make sense. We understand that modern teams need more than speed—they need privacy, security, and full control. Local AI offers all of that and more.
With AppFlowy, you can run AI features directly inside your workspace using models like gemma3 or qwen3 through Ollama. Your tools remain functional even without internet access, and your data stays where it belongs: with you.
Today, 25% of organizations already report having processes fully enabled by AI with widespread adoption, showing how trusted automation is no longer optional, but expected.
Local AI That Works Right Inside Your Workspace
Running AI models locally isn't just a technical choice—it's a productivity shift. With local AI, you get instant response time, greater control over your outputs, and assurance that your work never leaves your device.
Here are just a few reasons to consider local AI:
- Speed: No more waiting for server-side processing. Local models respond instantly.
- Privacy: Keep your inputs and results off the cloud.
- Customization: Use models and prompts that fit your own workflow.
- Reduced breach risk: Avoid exposing sensitive information to third-party platforms.
- Hardware independence: Works directly on your laptop, server, or device of choice.
AppFlowy makes this easy by supporting local AI right out of the box. With a simple setup using tools like Ollama, you can connect popular models to your digital workspace and get started in minutes. This efficient solution eliminates the need for cloud infrastructure, reducing risks and increasing control.

AI Speeds Up Processes Without Taking Control
AI should help you work faster, not make your decisions for you. With AppFlowy, AI speeds up processes by reducing manual steps but keeping you in control.
Here's a quick comparison:
| Without AI | With AppFlowy Local AI |
|---|---|
| Manually summarize meetings | Summarize instantly from notes |
| Create plans from scratch | Turn bullet lists into structured project outlines |
| Edit long content manually | Use AI suggestions without losing your voice |
AI is here to support your flow, not replace your judgment. It learns from how you use it and adapts accordingly, without sending your data away for processing. That way, AI speeds up processes while respecting your role in decision-making.
When used intentionally, AI speeds up processes without causing chaos. Instead of introducing confusion or bottlenecks, it enhances clarity and boosts momentum. If you need to deliver results faster, smarter, and more confidently, AI speeds up processes so you can meet goals with ease. Teams using AppFlowy find that AI speeds up processes not only in text generation but in task planning and document creation, too.
You gain the benefits of artificial intelligence without losing oversight. Whether you're a content creator or part of a larger team, AppFlowy's integration ensures AI speeds up processes while keeping control in your hands.
