Kompl FAQs

Question 1

What is Kompl and what problem does it solve?

Accepted Answer

Kompl is a self-hosted software that automatically compiles scattered digital content—links, files, bookmarks, social media exports—into an interconnected, evolving AI-powered wiki. It solves the problem of forgotten information by actively extracting, synthesizing, and interlinking knowledge, making it easily retrievable and actionable.

Question 2

How does Kompl create an interconnected wiki automatically?

Accepted Answer

Kompl uses advanced AI (specifically Google Gemini) and NLP to process diverse sources upon ingest. It dynamically extracts entities, concepts, and relationships, then interlinks wiki pages to create cross-references and synthesis. This process enriches your wiki with every new source.

Question 3

Is Kompl privacy-focused and self-hosted?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Kompl is designed with privacy at its core. It runs locally via Docker on your own machine, giving you full control over your data. Outbound calls are limited to your specified API keys (Gemini, Firecrawl) and the URLs you choose to ingest, with no analytics or telemetry sent by Kompl itself.

Question 4

Can I use AI agents to query my Kompl wiki?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Kompl ships with an integrated MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. This allows MCP-capable AI agents (like Claude Code/Desktop) to query your compiled wiki, receiving pre-synthesized, contextualized information with provenance back to the original sources, rather than raw data chunks.

Question 5

What are the technical requirements to run Kompl?

Accepted Answer

To run Kompl, you'll need Docker (Desktop/Engine + Compose v2), Node.js (version 24 or higher), approximately 5 GB of free disk space, and 4 GB of RAM. You will also need API keys for Google Gemini (for wiki compilation) and Firecrawl (for URL scraping fallback).
