Available for iOS, Android, macOS, Linux, and Windows, the app is open source with core logic written in Rust and uses Tauri for desktop. It supports image attachments and has E2EE sync infrastructure built in, though sync is not yet enabled in this initial release. Ente positions Ensu as a privacy-first alternative to cloud-based LLMs like ChatGPT, drawing on their experience delivering on-device ML features in Ente Photos. Future directions include a second-brain note-taking interface, an Android launcher integration, or a persistent personal agent with long-term memory. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
