# RA-H Overview
|
|
|
|
## What is RA-H?
|
|
|
|
RA-H is an AI-powered knowledge management system designed for researchers, thinkers, and anyone who works with ideas. It learns how you think and helps connect ideas across your knowledge base.
|
|
|
|
**Website:** [ra-h.app](https://ra-h.app)
|
|
**Open Source:** [github.com/bradwmorris/ra-h_os](https://github.com/bradwmorris/ra-h_os)
|
|
|
|
## Design Philosophy
|
|
|
|
**Non-prescriptive & emergent** — The system doesn't force you into folders or predefined categories. Organization emerges naturally from your actual content. The structure adapts to how you think, not the other way around.
|
|
|
|
**Everything is connected** — Every piece of knowledge can potentially connect to any other. Connections aren't just links — they carry context, explanation, and meaning.
|
|
|
|
**Local-first** — Your knowledge network belongs to you, not a platform. Your thinking, research, and connections all belong to you in a portable format you control.
|
|
|
|
**Human + AI** — You guide, AI assists. Create custom workflows. Always in control of your knowledge.
|
|
|
|
