The Wiki and Knowledge Graph

The Wiki and Knowledge Graph

Ounie's wiki is a self-building, Obsidian-style vault. You never have to organize it — it grows and connects itself as you add sources.

The self-building wiki

An LLM reads each source and writes a clean wiki page for it. Key entities and concepts get their own pages too, and all of it grows as you add more material. Pages, entity pages, concept pages, and the links between them are generated automatically.

Wikilinks

Wikilinks are the <a class="wikilink" data-slug="connections" href="/b/ounie/how-ounie-works/connections">connections</a> between pages. They let related pages reference each other, so concepts and entities form a connected web instead of isolated notes. They're also what powers the knowledge graph.

The knowledge graph

The graph is a visual map of how your ideas connect. Every concept and entity becomes a node you can explore, showing relationships across everything you've saved. It comes for free from the wikilinks — you get it without doing any work.

Entity and concept pages

When the same person, place, or idea shows up across multiple sources, Ounie gives it its own page that accumulates everything known about it. This is why the brain gets richer, not just bigger — recurring ideas deepen instead of scattering across documents.

Editing pages

Owners and editors can edit any wiki page inline. When you edit a page, it's re-indexed, so your edits are reflected in subsequent answers and retrieval. You stay in control of the synthesized layer.

Staying fast at scale

Pages are chunked and embedded into a vector index, which keeps retrieval quick even at thousands of pages per brain and across many users. The wiki gives coherence; the vector index gives speed.
