I built an open-source AI workspace because my work context was scattered across too many apps

We’ve been building OpenLoomi, an open-source AI work companion for people who live across too many work apps.

GitHub: https://github.com/melandlabs/openloomi

My problem with the AI is that there's just too damn many scattered informations for me to deal with everyday.
There's emails.
There's calendar.
There's docs.
There's X.
The painful part is they have their own AI, which is driving me crazy because I'm still jumping back and forth between all these apps.

So I decided I need my own AI workspace that can just work as a hub for everything and also remembers what's important.

OpenLoomi is our attempt to solve this problem:

  • connects to messaging, email, calendar, docs, project tools, RSS, etc.
  • builds memory around people, projects, decisions, and follow-ups
  • can run scheduled tasks and use skills
  • runs as a desktop app on macOS / Linux / Windows
  • is local-first and open source

We’re still early, and I’m trying to learn which workflows people actually care about.

Any feedback on the README, positioning, or first-run experience would help a lot.
