The record

What it does: Oleafly is a free desktop workspace for papers, theses, resumes, and other technical documents, with writing, PDF preview, references, and an optional AI assistant.
Writing formats: The workspace supports LaTeX, Typst, and Markdown projects.
AI options: Users can connect hosted AI providers, local Ollama models, custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints, or supported CLI agents such as Claude Code and Codex.
Research and citations: Research search covers alphaXiv and OpenAlex, citations can be verified against Crossref, and reference libraries can be imported from BibTeX, RIS, EndNote XML, and Zotero RDF.
Proofreading: Built-in spelling and grammar checks run locally with Hunspell and Harper and focus on prose rather than LaTeX commands and math.
Privacy: The maker says project files stay on the user's machine, there is no Oleafly account or telemetry, and hosted AI receives only context the user chooses to send.
Offline use: Writing, local compilation, PDF review, and proofreading work without AI; packages, fonts, and tools must be downloaded before going offline.
Integrations: The product supports GitHub push and pull, Git-based collaboration, Ollama, MCP tools, and connections to AI providers and installed CLI agents.
Import and export: Users can import project folders and ZIPs, including exports from online LaTeX editors, and export PDF, DOCX, HTML, Markdown, and source ZIP files.
Submission checks: Submission preflight includes compile, venue, ATS, accessibility, reference, and privacy checks; the maker says it does not promise an ATS score.
Collaboration limit: Real-time co-editing, comments, and managed sync are planned but are not currently in the app; collaboration currently uses Git.
Open source and support: Oleafly is open source under AGPL-3.0, and the site directs users to GitHub to report issues, contribute fixes, and join discussions.
