Public beta · free until 15 January 2027
Turn your conversations with AI into knowledge you keep, grow and use
Ideas, decisions and the options you didn't take are scattered across months of AI conversations. jaala captures them and maps them into one graph that stays on your machine. It starts with your AI coding sessions, from Claude Code and Codex.
Downloads open 20 October 2026. Runs on your machine.
Demo video coming soon
The problem
Conversations go deep and forget the rest
You lay out five ways to solve something, pick one, and the chat follows that path. The other four — and the reasons you rejected them — sink into a session file you will never open again. Next month, your agent proposes one of them as if it were new.
Capture · Curate · Create
Capture records. Curation maps. Creation acts.
A conversation is depth-first: you pick one branch and the rest fall away. jaala keeps every branch — every thread, one jaala. It works in three acts.
Capture
Every conversation with your AI coding tools lands in jaala word for word, the moment it happens. It's automatic and lossless — point it at your existing Claude Code history and months of work arrive on day one.
Curate
Capture becomes a knowledge map you own: your decisions, the options around them, and the ones you didn't take — each a node you can find, reopen and cite. Merge, split and re-home freely; nothing underneath is destroyed.
Create
Put the map to work: continue any thread with the right context pulled from your graph, so your agents build on what you settled instead of deciding it again. (Coming next)
Real sessions
See it on real sessions
Real sessions from jaala's own design history, captured and curated by jaala. Nothing staged. Drag a handle to compare the panes; on a phone, tap a pane name.

Three steps
Install and sign in
Download the app and sign in with Google or GitHub.
Point it at your history
jaala reads your Claude Code and Codex sessions from your machine and builds the graph. New sessions land as you work.
Navigate and curate
Browse decisions and the options around them, and search everything.
Examples
What you can find again
Real questions from jaala's own design history. Each one opens the session and what jaala made of it.
Builders
Three routes to automate a code generator, the cause that ruled them out, and the decision, in one brief.
See the session →One graph, or a tree beside it? The unified option lost for a concrete reason: one shared pan/zoom camera.
See the session →A side question you chased for an evening, reduced to three separate bars: identify, reconstruct as seen, reconstruct as physical.
See the session →Teams
Team plans are coming later. What a newcomer would open:
A newcomer opens one topic instead of the whole chat: route on many dimensions, not strong vs cheap.
See the session →The agent drifted from the agreed interface twice; jaala kept the agreed shape and the correction.
See the session →Rendering the diagram caught an error the text hid: cloud-only agents drawn inside "Local sources".
See the session →jaala reads Claude Code and Codex history today.
Sources
Where your knowledge comes from
jaala starts with your AI coding sessions and grows from there. Here is exactly what it reads today.
Claude Code
Your full session history, read from your machine. New sessions land as you work.
Codex
Sessions from OpenAI's Codex, in the same graph as your Claude Code work.
Other sources
More AI tools, where their conversations can be brought in.
Only "Available" sources work today.
Privacy and security
Your graph never leaves your machine
Stored on your device: your graph, your sessions, your files — encrypted. We never receive them, and we cannot recover them.
Sent to us: sign-in and licence checks, anonymous usage counts (you can turn these off), and feedback only when you send it.
AI features: run through your own Claude Code and your own Anthropic account, straight from your machine.
Email: we only email you about your account, billing and security. Product news lives on the changelog.
Encrypted at rest
Your graph and its attachments are stored in an AES-256 encrypted database (SQLCipher). The key lives in your operating system's keychain.
No copy on our servers
We never receive your data, so there is nothing of yours on our side to leak, sell or hand over.
Unrecoverable by design
Only your device holds the key. No one — including us — can recover your data. Keep your own backups.
No passwords with us
Sign in with Google or GitHub in your own browser, using OAuth with PKCE. We never see a password.
Signed updates
Every update is signed, and the app checks the signature before installing it.
Works offline
The app runs locally. It needs the internet only for sign-in, licence checks, and AI features through Claude Code.
Requirements

macOS, Windows or Linux.
Claude Code
Installed and signed in. jaala reads your Claude Code and Codex session history, and runs its AI features through Claude Code.
