Shrink reading from the article to the call.

We read so much, and in the end almost nothing stays. Your bookmarks keep filling up, your read-later queue keeps growing, but the judgments that actually stay are pitifully few.

Yomitomo is a local-first AI reading companion for desktop. It isn't yet another cloud reader — it's a reading workbench that lives on your own computer.

While reading, draw a line under the paragraph that makes you stop. That line isn't decoration; it's an evidence anchor. Three months later you can return straight to the original context.

Most reading tools only let you save an article; no one helps you think it through. The more you save, the heavier the backlog, until the whole bookmark folder becomes a kind of debt. Yomitomo flips it around: save less, but turn what you read into your own judgment.

Beneath a single line you can hang multiple thoughts, replies, and assistant comments. It isn't a static note, but a discussion that keeps growing.

When the discussion is rich enough, you can distill it into a distillation worth keeping. A distillation doesn't replace the source — it's the crystallization of your judgment about it, carrying both its origin and your angle.

Lines, thoughts and distillations form a path from marking to judgment to conclusion. Each layer can return to the one before: from distillation back to discussion, from discussion back to the line, from the line back to the source. You're never left facing a conclusion whose origin you can't recall.

Walking that path with you are six AI companions, each with a different temperament. One helps you ask, one digs to the root, one translates dense concepts, one edits scattered thoughts into prose.

They won't read for you, nor decide for you. You can pick who joins each line, or silence them all and face the source alone. A companion's value isn't giving you answers — it's making you state your own judgment clearly.

Yomitomo supports web articles, PDF, EPUB and WeRead. Content from different sources lands in the same workbench, and synced notes keep their original anchors.

Yomitomo is completely free and open source, and your data always stays on your own computer. It doesn't push to you, doesn't reorder for you, and doesn't sell your reading to anyone. It does one thing: help you turn what you read into something that stays.
