Reflect is an open-source (MIT), local-first networked note-taking app for Mac and iOS. Notes are stored as plain Markdown files on disk, synced via iCloud Drive or Git — no proprietary cloud lock-in. Backlinks connect notes into a knowledge graph. Optional AI features are available via a bring-your-own API key model, meaning you supply credentials directly to your chosen provider; Reflect itself does not proxy or bill for inference. A Chrome extension enables web clipping into the note graph. The project is open source with 1,576 GitHub stars.
