Yew Search is a privacy-focused personal knowledge engine that aggregates data from your external services and your own infrastructure - Gmail, websites you crawl, FTP servers, and more - and makes it all searchable, summarizable, and reachable by your own AI tools through MCP. You own the data and control who can access it.
Your information is scattered across dozens of services. Finding an important email, message, or document means searching multiple platforms, remembering which one you used, and hoping its search actually works. Yew solves that by creating a unified, private index of everything you've given it access to.
We believe your personal data should be private by default. The homelab community has already proven that self-hosting is viable for individuals - photo storage, password managers, home automation. Search across your own data is no different.
