PandaWiki is an open source knowledge base building system driven by an AI model. It helps you quickly build intelligent product documents, technical documents, FAQ, and blog systems. It uses the power of the big model to provide you with AI creation, AI Q & A, and AI search.
PandaWiki is an AI large-model-driven knowledgebase and Wiki construction system open source by the Chaitin Tech team
Project overview
PandaWiki It is an open source project based on the AI model. It aims to help companies or teams quickly build online knowledge bases, technical document libraries, FAQ systems, blogs, etc. with artificial intelligence creation, intelligent question and answer, intelligent search and other functions. The project will be open source at the end of May 2025 and quickly sparked heated discussions within the community (such as GitHub, OSChina, CSDN, etc.).
ˇCore functions
- AI-driven creation and Q & A
- Support AI to automatically generate content (AI-assisted writing)
- Users can conduct intelligent questions and answers on the knowledge base
- Powerful AI search functions, using RAG (Search Enhanced Generation) technology
- Document editing and exporting
- Supports rich text editing in Markdown and HTML formats
- Export to Word, PDF, Markdown and other formats
- multi-source import
- Can import document content from multiple sources such as web URL, website sitemap, RSS, and offline files
- third-party integration
- Can be embedded into other websites as website widgets
- Support access to chat bots such as Nail, Flying Book, and Enterprise WeChat to achieve Q & A, push and other functions
🚀Installation and deployment experience
- One-click installation (requires Linux + Docker)
Simply execute the following command to install and deploy PandaWiki:
bash -c "$(curl -fsSLk https://release.baizhi.cloud/panda-wiki/manager.sh)"
After installation, the access address, default account and password of the console (internal/external network) will be automatically output
- Configure AI models
After logging in for the first time, you need to configure the Chat model, Embedding model and Reranker model. The official recommendation is to quickly access through the “Baizhi Cloud Model Plaza” and also provides free trial quotas. - Create a knowledge base
