Plain text, yours
What you can do
Everything you know, organized and at hand
You write like in a notebook and link like in a wiki. Whatever you keep in Bucket, you can ask your own AI about.
Plain text, on your computer
Each note is a Markdown (.md) file in the folder you choose, and it reads the same in any other editor. You need no account and no internet to write.
Pills for your to-dos
A pill is a block with a title and a checkbox: the to-do on top, the details inside. You open it, close it and tick it when it is done.
Attached documents
Type /file and attach a contract, a photo or a PDF to the note. The file is saved next to the note, in your folder.
Dictation
Dictate instead of typing: if you have Pilot Voice with its model, your voice turns into text on your computer and the audio never leaves it.
Bucket and Board
With your Pilot account, Bucket gathers your notes and links from your phone, Pilot Desk and Pilot Board, and you send a note to your Board in one click.
Your own AI
Ask your AI about what you keep in Bucket
With your Pilot account, you chat about what you have in Bucket with your own Claude or ChatGPT, the one you already use on your computer, with your subscription. The chat runs isolated and without tools, and your notes reach it as data, not as orders.
- “Where did we leave things with this client?”
- “Which ideas did I note for the campaign?”
- “What is still missing to close this project?”
Your notes are saved on your computer. To chat, the app sends your Claude or ChatGPT only what it needs from your Bucket, with your own account. It stores no keys and uses no paid Pilot AI.

What leaves your computer
Very little, and always the same things.
Your notes and attachments
They stay as files in the folder you chose. Without an account, they never leave your computer.
With your Pilot account
Bucket stores your notes and links in your account, so you can see them on your phone, in Pilot Desk and in Pilot Board. Whatever you send to the Board stays in your Pilot Board.
The chat with your AI
The app sends your Claude or ChatGPT only what it needs from your Bucket, with your own account. The conversation is saved in your Pilot account.
Dictation
Your voice turns into text on your computer; the audio never leaves it.
New versions
The app asks whether there is a new version. That check does not carry your notes.
Frequently asked questions
What to know before downloading
What is Pilot Wikibrain?
It is a Mac and Windows app that works as your personal wiki and second brain: you keep notes, documents, ideas, to-dos and client details on your computer and link them together. With your Pilot account, you chat with your own AI about what you keep in Bucket.
Is it the same app as before?
Yes. Pilot Wikibrain, formerly Pilot Editor, is the same app with a new name. Your notes are still files in your folder, and the installed app keeps updating itself.
Where are my notes saved?
On your computer, as Markdown (.md) files inside the folder you choose. They read the same in any other text editor, and attachments stay next to each note.
Do I need a Pilot account?
Not to write: opening, writing and saving notes works without an account and without internet. The account is for Bucket, the chat with your AI, sending a note to the Board and mentioning people.
Which artificial intelligence does it use?
Yours: Claude or ChatGPT, using the session you already have open on your computer and your own subscription. Pilot Wikibrain stores no AI keys and uses no paid Pilot AI.
What does the AI talk about?
About what you saved in Bucket: your Pilot notes and links. The notes in your folders stay on your computer, and you read and edit them as always.
Is my data private?
Your notes are files on your computer. If you sign in to Pilot, Bucket stores your notes and links in your account so you can also see them on your phone and in Pilot Desk. The AI chat runs isolated, without tools, and receives your notes as data, not as instructions.
Can I dictate?
Yes. If you have Pilot Voice installed with its model, Pilot Wikibrain uses it to turn your voice into text on your computer. The audio never leaves your computer.
Which computers is it for?
Mac with macOS 12 or later, with Apple or Intel processors, and 64-bit Windows. Each download button always gets the latest version.
