Kaku is a local-first notes and database workspace with the shape of Notion and none of the cloud behind it. There is no account and no subscription, and your data is a SQLite file on your own disk that you can open, copy or back up with any tool you like.
Everything is a block: text, headings, lists, toggles and embeds all nest and reorder by dragging. Pages nest infinitely, and full-text search runs against the local database.
Still early. The foundation, the block editor and the page tree work today; databases and their table, board, calendar and gallery views are the next phases.
