About Thinking Partner
Thinking Partner functions as a persistent strategic advisor that retains user context locally on the machine. It is designed for solo founders and AI power users who need continuity across sessions without relying on cloud chat histories. The tool maintains a living brief of the user’s strategy, constraints, and priorities, allowing conversations to resume where they left off. Users can configure the partner’s behavior and import existing context from services like Claude or ChatGPT, storing it in a structured format that remains accessible regardless of the model used. The application integrates with external knowledge bases such as Notion or Obsidian vaults and can reference local files like inboxes to align with active to-do lists. It supports switching between language models via OpenRouter without requiring rebuilding setups or additional subscriptions. All personal data and chats are stored on the user’s machine, ensuring control over information and independence from vendor-specific constraints.
