About

Hilo — Turn browsing into understanding

You read dozens of articles, docs, and threads every week — and forget most of them. Hilo is an AI research companion that help you capture what you read, understands it, and connects it into a personal knowledge base you can actually search, revisit, and reuse, just with "DOUBLE ⌘"

Stop re-Googling things you already read. Start building on them.

What Hilo does

• Collect — Save any page with one click. Hilo instantly writes a clean SUMMARY and pulls out the KEY TAKEAWAYS so you get the gist without re-reading.

• Take Note — Anything inspires you, highlight and  "DOUBLE ⌘", the content auto goes to your knowledge base, and you will never miss any critical INSIGTHS!

• Investigate — New concept, unfimilar method, don't worry, "DOUBLE ⌘" and Hilo INVESTIGATE them for you, with all refer links you could choose by your interest.

  • Connect — Hilo automatically links related pages, notes,
  and investigations, revealing how your ideas fit together
  across time.

  • Report — When you've finished researching a topic, generate
  a structured, cited report in seconds — ready to share or
  build on.

  Everything is organized into topics and stored in your
  personal vault, which you can open, edit, and export anytime
  in a clean Obsidian-style web workspace.

  Why install Hilo

  If you research, learn, or make decisions online — as a
  consultant, PM, investor, researcher, lawyer, journalist, or
  creator — your best insights are scattered across closed tabs
  and forgotten bookmarks. Hilo captures them the moment you
  read, so months of reading become one connected, searchable
  memory instead of a graveyard of links.

  • Save hours you'd otherwise spend hunting for "that thing I
  read last week"
  • Remember why something mattered, not just that you saved it
  • Turn scattered reading into finished, sourced deliverables

  Private by design — Hilo captures only your own browsing to
  build your knowledge base. Free to start; upgrade to Pro for
  unlimited AI and advanced models.

  Install Hilo and never lose what you read again.
