Real-Time Search
Full integration with the Tavily API, allowing AI to browse the web with secure credential settings.
Knowledge Base
Upload PDFs, URLs and text to extract knowledge and inject it directly into conversation context trees.
Bring Your Models
Connect OpenAI, Google Gemini or local LLMs. You control which model to use, no middlemen.
Visual experience. Perfectly adaptable.
Refined interface with light and dark theme support, GPU-optimized with impeccable typography.
Get started in 3 simple steps
Download the App
Install Elana on your Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) or Android devices.
Connect Your Models
Add your own OpenAI, Google Gemini keys or configure a local LLM. Everything encrypted locally.
Start Chatting
Elana remembers what matters. Upload documents, browse the web and build your personal knowledge base.
Your AI connected to the web. Your data integrated.
Two indispensable tools built into Elana: real-time browsing powered by the Tavily API and full portability by copying and pasting raw Markdown text to any other application.
Tavily Smart Navigation
The AI queries up-to-date sources and synthesizes answers with clickable, safe citations.
Latest news about open-source LLM models
How does web search work?
Unlike traditional chats stuck at the model's cutoff date, Elana runs a silent search using Tavily tools and injects recent facts and links into the prompt in milliseconds.
Tavily Web Search
Browse the web safely. Tavily extracts and summarizes information from academic articles, news and repositories without exposing your prompt history.
Universal Compatibility
When copying responses in raw markdown format, they preserve all semantics, lists, headings and code blocks — ideal for Obsidian, Notion or VSCode.
Lossless Prompt Pasting
You can paste entire templates structured in markdown. The assistant will process the tag hierarchy perfectly.
Your data never leaves your device.
Run your models locally or in a private instance and take full control over how AI interacts with your data.

Questions? We have answers.
You can connect OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-4o, etc.), Google Gemini, or any compatible local LLM. Elana is model-agnostic — you bring your own model and your own keys.
Elana uses Qdrant DB with Mistral Embeddings to create dynamic vector memories. This allows it to remember past conversations, facts and preferences in an organic and contextual way.
Desktop (Windows, macOS and Linux) and Android. Built with Tauri v2 and Rust, Elana has native performance with a microscopic memory footprint — usually less than 20MB.
Yes, Elana is free for personal use. You only need to provide your own API keys from the AI providers you want to use.
The Brain is a native knowledge ingestion pipeline. You can upload PDFs, URLs and plain text so Elana can extract facts and inject them directly into your context trees, enriching each conversation.
Elana is currently in active development (Beta). Although it is already fully operational, fast and safe for daily use, new features, integrations and performance improvements are released constantly. You can follow the progress or report any instability directly on our GitHub repository.
