In developmentDistill: Notes That Think
A privacy-first learning companion. You write or paste a note; the app tidies it into clean markdown, then generates lessons, flashcards and quizzes — with the model running on the device.
- Expo
- ExecuTorch
- On-device LLM
- SQLite
Screenshots from an earlier build. The tab bar has since changed; the product direction has not.
The idea
A note is the only thing you create. Write or paste something you want to learn; Distill cleans it up and builds study material from it automatically.
The hard part
The AI runs on the device. A Qwen 3 1.7B model runs locally through ExecuTorch, so notes are never uploaded. No account, no server, no sync.
Tech
- Expo + TypeScript, React Native
- On-device LLM inference via ExecuTorch
- Local SQLite
- Native design systems done properly — Apple HIG on iOS, Material 3 on Android
Status
