Kura is a personal health record you run at home: medical reports, measurements, therapies and reminders — with no clouds and no third parties. Your data never leaves a machine you own.
Health records are the most personal data you own. Kura was built for one reason: keeping them under your control, not on someone else’s cloud.
Self-hosted by design
Runs on your own hardware — a Raspberry Pi, a NAS or any server. One Docker container, prebuilt for amd64 and arm64. No account with anyone, ever.
No clouds, no third parties
Nothing is sent to external services. No telemetry, no trackers, no analytics. The only people who see your medical history are the ones you choose.
Isolated and protected
Data is isolated per user at the API level, and attachments are never reachable without authentication — files are served through temporary tokens.
No lock-in, ever
Export everything as a ZIP at any time: faithful JSON, Excel-friendly CSV and all your attachments. Automatic nightly backups with rotation, out of the box.
What you can do
One place for your whole health record
Mobile-first, installable as an app, and organized the way a personal health diary should be.
Clinical diary
A timeline of medical reports with PDF and image attachments, color-coded custom categories, full-text search across titles, notes and tags, and email reminders for appointments.
Measurements
Log blood pressure (systolic, diastolic, heart rate), weight and blood glucose, and read them as trend charts. New parameters take a single config line.
Therapies and medications
Flexible recurrences — “every day at 8am”, “every 6 months” — package expiry heads-ups by email, and per-therapy notification toggles.
Overview dashboard
Upcoming appointments with countdown, latest measurements, ongoing therapies and pending reminders — everything on one screen when you open the app.
Export and portability
Full export as a ZIP with JSON, CSV and attachments, single-visit exports to share with a doctor, and .ics events for your calendar.
Made to live on your phone
Installable as a PWA, bilingual English/Italian, light and dark theme, and a dedicated design system built for readability of medical data.
Self-hosting
Up and running in minutes
Kura ships as a single container — PocketBase backend, React frontend, SQLite storage. No external database, no external anything.
1
Pull and start
Grab the prebuilt multi-arch image from GitHub Container Registry and start it with Docker Compose. It runs happily on a Raspberry Pi or NAS.
2
Create your account
On first boot Kura sets up the admin for you. Log in, change the password, create your personal user — or preconfigure both with environment variables.
3
Own your data
Everything lives in a single pb_data folder on your disk. Nightly backups run automatically; restore is one click away in the admin panel.
