Your local AI copilot for documents
PaperPilot is a local-first PDF and document toolkit written in pure Rust. One core engine powers an MCP server (so AI agents like Claude can merge, split, OCR, and compress PDFs), a CLI, a browser WASM app, a Tauri desktop GUI, and a localhost REST API. Files never leave your machine, with no cloud calls or Chromium dependency.
Why now: It was featured on Hacker News, riding interest in zero-cloud privacy tooling and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that give AI agents document capabilities.
Who it is for: Developers and privacy-conscious users who want AI agents or scripts to manipulate PDFs without uploading files anywhere.
