privateGPT had shown that local RAG was possible, but still required the command line and had no user interface. AnythingLLM takes local RAG to the next level: a real web application with separate workspaces, drag-and-drop document loading, multi-user management, and a choice of LLM backend.

You can connect it to Ollama, LocalAI, or even a remote OpenAI API, and switch backends without recreating your workspaces. Documents are indexed and stay on your server, whether it's a home PC or a company server.

For anyone who wants to build a private corporate knowledge base or a document assistant without touching the cloud, AnythingLLM is among the most complete open source projects available.
