"Hey, thanks a lot for your great work. An app like this has been missing for Obsidian for quite some time. I'm currently exploring the options and capabilities. It's particularly important to me that my data always remains local on my device. Therefore, I would find it extremely helpful if I could set up my self-hosted AI (such as Ollama or LocalAI) as an AI provider in this app. Is such an option planned?"
There’s a strong push toward supporting self-hosted AI, and I do see this being added to the app. That said, I can’t share an exact ETA yet, as I’m currently focused on another update.
From a UX perspective, I imagine this as a separate screen where you could configure your AI provider (for example, Ollama or LocalAI) along with a custom URL endpoint. Is there anything specific you’d like to see included there?

Oh, that’s great news! It would be helpful to not only select the appropriate endpoint but also choose the right LLM. But honestly, being able to integrate your own AI would already be a dream!

For AI, being able to use API endpoints would be nice. But this is a lot of work.
Even myself am using different providers for different tasks (I prefer ElevenLabs API for STT, and xAI API for text analysis and searches, etc.).
