about
Your sources. Your disk. Your AI.
Uoink is local corpus software for people who want to own the source material they study. Ryan Biddy (@replayryan) makes Uoink as a personal side project. It is free and MIT-licensed.
why this exists
The corpus belongs on your machine.
Uoink exists because useful videos should become durable working material: timestamped words, frames, comments, metadata, and citations that your model can actually use.
- 01
Local-first.
No Uoink account, no hosted corpus, no product database full of your research.
- 02
Open source.
The helper, extension, and agent surface are inspectable. If the work matters, you should be able to audit the tool.
- 03
Agent-readable.
The site exposes /llms.txt and /mcp/manifest.json so agents can find the real integration surface.
