FAQs
Kontext21 is the AI infrastructure layer for user context.
K21 SDK makes it easy to personalize software by capturing & retrieving end-user context from sources like their screen, browser and many more.
What use cases are you targeting?
What use cases are you targeting?
See our Use Case Gallery. Currently many use cases around task & time tracking as well as knowledge creation.
Which operating systems do you support?
Which operating systems do you support?
We are focused on MacOS and Windows.
With Linux and mobile coming soon. Please reach out if you want to build for them.
Why should we use this instead of integrating directly with model XY?
Why should we use this instead of integrating directly with model XY?
You can always re-invent the wheel. Kontext21 provides model agnostic infrastructure layer to build context aware software applications. Using a model is only part of the work to be done.
-
Easy experimentation with different models
-
Receiving structured output
-
Merge with different sources of context both from within your software (known entities such as contacts, projects etc.) but also from outside your software (see our list of integrations
-
Both experimentation as well as testing & observability are crucial.
-
Remove PII information
-
Optimize for cost

How does this compare to computer use and browser use?
How does this compare to computer use and browser use?
With computer use and browser use there is usually no way to get back structured data about what’s going on for the user. Kontext21 can be used to trigger computer use or also to build your own, highly customized version of computer use.
How much CPU & memory resources does it take?
How much CPU & memory resources does it take?
Depends on the use case but less than 10% when running with 1 fps.

-
Pattern: Inform the user about what data is collect and why
-
Pattern: Inform end-user when there data is accessed = prevents “spying”
-
Pattern: Keep the user in control - Create local drafts before sharing the data with other users. sharing with consent, Chinese wall (nothing from one side leaks to the other. As the user I can be sure that what gets analyzed locally is not made available to my employer & colleagues).
-
Pattern: Let user inspect the recorded data
-
User trust often means “local first”
