Arkon

Arkon is a self-hosted enterprise knowledge management platform that compiles internal documents into a structured, searchable AI wiki.

Arkon serves as a knowledge management layer that connects organizational data to AI clients through the Model Context Protocol. The system processes documents through an MRP pipeline—Map, Reduce, Plan-review, Refine, Verify, and Commit—to create coherent, interlinked wiki pages rather than simple vector chunks. It supports department-level isolation, ensuring employees only access data relevant to their role and permissions. The platform integrates with Claude and other LLMs, allowing teams to query company SOPs, policies, and documents securely. Arkon is self-hosted via Docker and features role-based access control, audit logs, and versioned AI skill distribution.
