The KuramaLab network: KLAPI Hub, the tools and how they connect

Besides data work for businesses, I publish sites and tools of my own. Together they form the KuramaLab network. This article explains what it contains, where each part stands and how the parts connect. I only use what is public: the service pages, the release notes and the list on the Network page.

First, a note. Every entry in the KuramaLab network states its status and how you can access it. Some are active and public. Others are pilots, invitation only or still in preparation. I would rather say so plainly than make something look ready when it is not.

What is in the KuramaLab network

Specifically, here are the main entries, grouped by the status shown on the network page:

• active and public: MeetCraft, Kotodama, ClipForge, HORUS Screen Capture and By1.eu;
• active, invitation only: KLAPI Hub;
• invitation only: Kurai Agents;
• pilot, account required: LexCrypto Italia, Kronus and KIRA Testing Tool.

In addition, the list includes a news archive, a restricted file space and two projects that are not open yet. The page also shows the public repositories on GitHub and GitLab. That list, however, comes from a periodic snapshot, not from live calls.

How to read status and access in the KuramaLab network

In short, each entry on the page has two labels. The first says where the service stands. "Active" means you can use it today. "Pilot" marks a service in a trial phase, while "invitation only" means you have to ask for access. Finally, "reserved" and "in preparation" mark projects that are not open yet.

The second label, then, says how you get in. "Public" means you just visit the page or download the program. "Account required" means you sign up first. "Invitation only", instead, means a direct request.

This way anyone who lands on the site sees at once what they can try and what they cannot.

KLAPI Hub: the shared layer

The technical centre of the KuramaLab network is KLAPI Hub. Its site describes it as one access point to integrate configured services, manage keys and track usage. Usage shows up in your own dashboard, and the interface is available in Italian and English.

Above all, two choices of KLAPI Hub matter to me. First, access is by invitation only today. Second, the site states that no model is shown or sold until its infrastructure is configured and verified. Also, every beta, pilot or on-request solution is labelled as such.

So KLAPI Hub itself lists its solutions with different statuses. APIs and models are marked as in preparation. Messaging and automation is a pilot, run as a managed service. Vertical solutions are in beta.

MeetCraft: an example of how the tools connect

The best way to understand the KuramaLab network is to look at a tool that uses KLAPI Hub. MeetCraft is a Windows desktop app. It transcribes meetings on the user's own computer, then turns them into minutes, translations and summaries with KLAPI Hub models.

The interesting part, in fact, is how the work is split. According to the public MeetCraft README, transcription runs entirely on the PC. Only the text the user chooses to improve or summarise goes to KLAPI Hub. Moreover, nothing is sent without consent.

Version 0.2.0, released on 21 September 2026, adds a step I consider essential. For each model, the app shows the provider's statement on data retention and training, with a link to the privacy policy. These are the terms exactly as KLAPI Hub publishes them. In addition, the cost of each step appears in the job details.

The same release also lets you choose a different model for correction, translation and summaries. Besides, consent to send text can now be turned on only from the full privacy notice. These are details, yet they say a lot about how an app built on outside models should behave.

For the AI features, though, you need a KLAPI Hub key, which is currently available by invitation.

Open source tools in the KuramaLab network

Two tools in the KuramaLab network are open source, under the GPL-3.0 licence.

Kotodama brings ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other assistants into a single desktop window. It is free, runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, and the builds download without an account. The code is on GitHub.

ClipForge is a desktop app to download video, audio and subtitles. For downloads it relies on yt-dlp. Its repository presents it for personal archiving of content you have rights to. Therefore it should only be used for your own content or content the law allows you to download. The latest release, 0.1.4 of 6 September 2026, updated the download component after some YouTube changes.

Restricted services and work in progress

Part of the KuramaLab network is not open to everyone. Kurai Agents, focused on agents and orchestration for assisted workflows, is invitation only. LexCrypto Italia, Kronus and KIRA are pilots and require an account. Two more projects are reserved or in preparation.

Still, I list them with their status. That way visitors know they exist, but do not mistake them for finished services.

Why a network, and what it has to do with work for companies

The network's tools are where I test the choices I then apply to data work. For example, keys and usage managed in one place. Or the cost of each step shown to the user. And data that leaves the computer only with explicit consent, with the model providers' terms shown before sending.

These are the same topics I deal with when I process data with AI. As a result, when I talk about them, I talk about things I have built.

If one of the network's services interests you, or you want to know whether a similar approach could help your company, write to me. For invitation-only services, tell me which one and what you would use it for.
