Keyboard Paths Are Easier to Discover

Wed, 15 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Fast knowledge work depends on reducing the distance between intent and action. Arivu has restored keyboard-first paths for the actions that repeat throughout a day, and made those paths easier to learn.

Press Q to capture, / or F to focus Search, Cmd/Ctrl+K to open Quick actions, and Cmd/Ctrl+P to print. In Library and bookmark result grids, the arrow keys move through visible items and Enter opens the focused result. Escape closes the active dialog or leaves the field you are editing.

An AI Assistant You Can Actually Trust

Update, July 11, 2026: Arivu now supports runtime choice among Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI-compatible, local, and custom-compatible providers. Local endpoints can be keyless where supported, and AI remains optional. Read Your Second Brain, Your Model Provider for the current model-provider story.

Most AI assistants ask you for trust up front. They act, and you find out afterward. That is a bad fit for a tool that holds your knowledge and can change it.

Search That Thinks, Summaries That Matter

Historical note, July 2026: This post describes an earlier search and summary milestone. Search, summaries, and source-aware answers still matter, but the current product frames them inside a broader self-hosted second-brain workflow with notes, Inbox, Focus, Review, optional AI, and cited answers.

Finding a bookmark shouldn’t feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. And reading an AI summary shouldn’t feel like reading filler text generated to hit a word count.
