Elephas is a Mac-native AI knowledge workspace designed for professionals who handle sensitive documents. It provides local-first indexing, automatic PII redaction, and flexible AI processing options to help users search, summarize, and write using their own knowledge—without exposing confidential data.
Key Features
- Super Brain Workspaces: Upload PDFs, Word files, Apple Notes, Notion pages, Zoom transcripts, and more into focused workspaces. Elephas indexes them locally and grounds AI answers in your files with citations.
- PII Redaction: Before sending data to cloud AI models, Elephas detects and redacts personal information like names, emails, and phone numbers, ensuring sensitive details stay on your device.
- Super Command: A system-wide keyboard shortcut that lets you rewrite, summarize, translate, or draft text in any app—Mail, Slack, Safari, and others—using your documents as context.
- Flexible AI Backend: Use Elephas with its built-in cloud AI, your own API keys from 15+ providers (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, etc.), or run local models for fully offline operation.
Who It's For
Elephas is built for lawyers, consultants, coaches, customer support professionals, and any knowledge worker dealing with confidential documents. It supports workflows in legal research, business strategy, private journals, and internal knowledge management.
