THE FILES YOU ALREADY WORK WITH

Less setup.
More useful document work.

Your local model provides the AI. Simplicitor gives it a clear place to work.

01

Write a new document

Describe what you need. Create a Word document, PDF, PowerPoint presentation or Excel file. PowerPoint includes built-in designs.

WordPDFPowerPointExcel
02

Change a part. Keep the rest.

Open a Word file and select whole paragraphs. Describe the change, compare Before and After, then save as a new file. Removed words are crossed out in red; added words are green. Everything outside the selected part stays unchanged.

Removed or merged paragraphs are called out. Tables and other unsupported parts stay read-only, with a reason.

03

Pull information into Excel

Choose Word files or PDFs with readable text. Confirm the columns, extract the information and inspect the source evidence before saving your spreadsheet.

One row per source file. Highlighted values and reading problems require review.

A RESULT YOU CAN CHECK

Don't just get a number.
See where it came from.

Extracted values come with source quotes and references. Select a cell in the app to inspect its evidence. Reading problems and values needing review stay visible.

LOCAL MEANS LOCAL

The work stays
on your side of the screen.

Your documents, your local AI and all processing stay on your computer.

Source files, generated documents and edited copies stay in your local folders. Nothing is uploaded. Nothing leaves your computer.

AI can make mistakes. Review proposed changes and extracted information before you use them.

GETTING STARTED

A small setup.
Then it's document work.

Already have Ollama and a local model?
Start at step 2.

  1. 1

    Have your local AI ready

    Install Ollama and download a model. We recommend a model with at least 8 billion parameters (8B+).

    Get Ollama ↗
  2. 2

    Open Simplicitor

    Download the Windows installer or portable ZIP. Start Ollama, open Simplicitor, then select your local model in Settings.

  3. 3

    Create a file, edit a Word document, or pull information into Excel. Follow the steps in the app.

A few practical questions

What can I edit?

Standard Word documents (.docx). Select a continuous range of whole body paragraphs. Tables, headers, footers and paragraphs containing unsupported elements are shown read-only. Excel and PowerPoint editing are not available.

Can I extract information from scanned PDFs?

Not yet. Extraction accepts Word documents and PDFs with a usable text layer. Scanned PDFs and image-only pages need a separate OCR step, which Simplicitor does not currently provide.

Which languages are supported?

English is the tested language. Other languages may work with your model, but they are not tested or claimed as supported.

Can I use it commercially?

Yes. Simplicitor 2.0.0 onward is licensed under MIT. Bundled libraries retain their own licenses. Read the license ↗

Is this website an online document editor?

No. This page explains the Windows app. Its examples are fictional illustrations. There is no document upload or AI processing on this website.
