AppFlowy is a workspace for documents, projects and AI. Its desktop Local AI plugin connects to Ollama for local model use. AppFlowy also offers a self-hosted server deployment with language and embedding models inside your environment, including air-gapped operation. The desktop plugin and server deployment are distinct ways to use AI.

The workspace combines project databases with documentation and team wikis. Teammates can edit together in real time or leave comments for later. AI search answers questions using your sources, alongside writing assistance, chat, research and meeting notes. Forms, a site builder and basic CRM tools cover information collection, publishing and contact management.

You can host the server on premises or in your own cloud. With self-hosted models, workspace data and AI processing stay inside that environment, and AppFlowy has no vendor access to the instance. Installing a desktop app and hosting the server are separate choices; the Ollama plugin connects the desktop app to an Ollama server for AI.

AppFlowy uses an open-core model, with its open-source repository licensed under AGPL-3.0. Apps run on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android, with a web interface and cross-device sync. The application uses Flutter and Rust.
