oakkeep
Small, sturdy software — and it stays yours.
A local-first library for your notes, PDFs, and images. Its PDF toolbench runs the hushpdf tools on whole folders at once — offline, into a searchable library. Your vault is a plain folder of files that you can still read without it.
Apps you install
More desktop apps that live on your machine and keep working with the network off. Pay what you want, including free.
hushnetA menu-bar monitor for your internet connection, built so you can prove it isn't the thing leaking. It sends no traffic of its own.

Open hushexif →Oakkeep is a one-person workshop building small, durable software. The idea is deliberately old-fashioned: tools you own, that run on your own machine, that don't upload your files, track you, or ask you to make an account — kept simple enough that they still work in ten years, because they never depended on a server in the first place.
Oak for something sturdy and made to last. Keep for a place that safeguards what you put inside it. That's the whole brief — everything runs on your device, and nothing leaves it.
