Not NotebookLM
It doesn't summarise a folder. It builds a sourced, structured wiki of your thinking — curated at the door, linked by association, yours to export.
CrocoBrain builds a sourced, structured AI brain from everything you read and write — governed by a personal schema it generates from your own contradictions. Calm tool, not a chatbot.
No card. Free forever under a monthly usage cap — your brain stays readable and exportable for life.
The difference
The architecture of your thought — made legible, sourced, and navigable — is the whole point.
It doesn't summarise a folder. It builds a sourced, structured wiki of your thinking — curated at the door, linked by association, yours to export.
It refuses to fabricate. Every answer is grounded in your own sources with citations; when your vault is silent, it says so instead of bluffing.
It isn't a clone for an audience. It's a private instrument that thinks and writes in your voice — the differentiator is the architecture of your thought, not a chatbot persona.
The wow
Onboarding is an initial calibration, not a setup wizard. The brain reads a few of your real sources, then interviews you — surfacing where you disagree with yourself — and writes the schema that makes it sound like you. It is a beginning, never “done”.
How it works
Articles, podcasts, books, your old notes, raw reflections. A hard quality gate filters at the door — only what brings a new idea enters the wiki.
An interview confronts you with your own contradictions and generates your personal schema: your categories, domains, vocabulary, and voice.
Chat and Enrich navigate your vault by association, surface tensions and gaps, and write back in your register — never a generic assistant.
Full calibration, lifetime-stored sources, and Obsidian export — free, no card. Scale up only when you outgrow the monthly turn allowance.
