kotaemon – Build Private Document QA with Citations

        Problem

        ChatGPT’s file upload is useful for quick questions, but it is not built for shared document workflows.

Teams often need page-level citations, shared document collections, user access control, and a way to keep sensitive files inside their own infrastructure.

        Solution

[kotaemon](https://github.com/Cinnamon/kotaemon) provides a self-hosted document QA interface for that.

It lets teams ask questions across documents, verify answers in a built-in PDF viewer, and organize files into private or public collections.

Key benefits:

Finds answers with both keyword search and semantic search

Reasons across multiple documents for more complex questions

Runs on your own infrastructure with one Docker command

Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, and local models

Graphify – Query a Codebase as a Knowledge Graph

        Problem

        When asking repo-level questions, the usual workflow is to search with grep, jump between definitions, read docs, and paste context back into the chat.

But this workflow takes time, makes indirect connections easy to miss, and forces the assistant to load more context than needed.

        Solution

[Graphify](https://github.com/Graphify-Labs/graphify) turns a project folder into a local knowledge graph that maps those relationships, so follow-up questions become cheaper and easier to answer accurately.

The following example shows how Graphify traces the shortest path between two scikit-learn components without manually opening files.
