Engram is a web reader for articles, PDFs, posts, links, quotes and your own notes. Select a passage and a small language model running in your browser answers in a note beside it: explain it, define it, simplify it, or argue the other side. Nothing you read is sent to an AI service. Everything you save is a Markdown file. Each folder syncs to a private GitHub repository in your own account, so your library is on every device and stays readable without Engram.
