KIT
One window. Everything you need.

KIT is a local-first, open-source unified workspace for macOS and Linux that combines coding, writing, browsing, automation, and email management in a single window. It integrates with OpenAI and Anthropic models using the user's own API keys, enabling custom AI pipelines and routines. The app includes a full IMAP email client and stores all data locally with no cloud lock-in.
KIT runs as a single desktop window on macOS and Linux, integrating AI model orchestration (via user-supplied OpenAI/Anthropic keys), a full IMAP email client, and other tools in one local-first app.
