About aillm.wiki — An Independent LLM Wiki Learning Hub

aillm.wiki is an independent directory and learning hub for the LLM Wiki pattern — the approach Andrej Karpathy introduced in April 2026 for building personal knowledge bases that compound over time. We turn the original spec into things you can actually download, read, and apply.

Why this site exists

When Karpathy’s gist went viral, the internet filled up with explainers, YouTube walkthroughs, and "hot take" Medium posts. What no one shipped was a single place where:

• A non-technical knowledge worker could learn the pattern without being told to "install Claude Code first."
• A researcher could find a real, ready-to-use schema for managing papers, citations, and methodology graphs.
• A developer could skip the CLAUDE.md trial-and-error and start from templates that already work.

aillm.wiki exists to fill that gap — a learning hub that respects your time and doesn’t assume you live in the terminal.

Who we serve

We write every piece of content with one of three readers in mind:

👩‍💻 The independent developer

30–40, works at a small team or ships side projects on weekends, lives inside Cursor or Claude Code. Wants a tuned CLAUDE.md / schema.md more than another RAG library.

🎓 The research-heavy reader

Grad student, post-doc, analyst, consultant, or think-tank researcher. Drowning in PDFs, BibTeX, and half-finished literature reviews. Wants a wiki-shaped second brain that compiles sources and flags contradictions.

✍️ The no-terminal creator

Writer, consultant, teacher, or PM. Obsidian or Notion is their home base. Wants the LLM Wiki idea without the install dance.

Every blog post you read here is labeled for at least one of these three personas. If a post isn’t for you, it says so in the first paragraph so you can keep scrolling.

How we make money

The free parts stay free forever. The single product paying the bills right now is:

• LLM Wiki Starter Kit — 5 battle-tested CLAUDE.md / schema.md templates plus ingest scripts and a video walkthrough. One-time purchase, no subscription.

A few additional formats (Research Edition, Obsidian Vault, Notion Template) are on the roadmap, but we are deliberately listing them only as roadmap on the Templates page — no separate waitlists, no specific dates — until the Starter Kit is in readers' hands. We would rather under-promise and ship than the other way around.

We also send an occasional newsletter with new schema patterns and community discussions worth your time. No fixed schedule, no upsell, one-click unsubscribe. We don’t run display ads, we don’t take sponsorships that aren’t labeled, and we don’t sell your email. That’s it.

What we are not

• We are not affiliated with Anthropic, OpenAI, Eureka Labs, or Andrej Karpathy.
• We are not a SaaS. Nothing on this site phones home when you use it.
• We are not a RAG replacement vendor. LLM Wiki is a pattern, not a product. Sometimes you still need RAG — we’ll tell you when.

Questions, corrections, press

Best way to reach us: hello@aillm.wiki. We read every email. If you found a factual error, cite the source and we’ll fix it within 48 hours and credit you in the changelog.
