How it works

How it works

There are two places: your Inbox and your lenses. Everything you nab lands in the Inbox until you decide where it lives, and you look at it all through lenses you make yourself. Nothing comes pre-built — everyone sees their life differently.

01

Nab it, with no friction

Write it the way you would say it: “call the accountant tomorrow 10am”, “review the contract every Monday”, “design budget waiting on Ana”, #tags, @teammates. The date, the repeat and who you are waiting on are understood as you type. It works with no connection: what you write offline is queued and lands when you come back.

02

Inbox

Everything you capture lands here, and stays until you decide: move it into a project, an area or a list, leave it for someday, put it on hold for someone, make it repeat, or simply file it. Having a date does not count as being organized.

03

Lenses

A lens is a way of looking: “this week”, “what I am waiting on from others”, a board for your team. Write it like you would say it, answer three short questions, and watch it fill in live before you save it — as a list, a board, a table or a gallery. “Everything”, unfiltered, is always one tap away so nothing gets lost.

04

One nab, many shapes

A task, a long note, a page written by hand with Apple Pencil, a project with its steps, a list with its own properties. Each detail shows only what it has — when, repeats, waiting on, tags — and “+ Add” for the rest.

05

Start empty, or from a template

A new account has nothing in it. If you want a head start, add a ready-made set of lenses — for a clear head, for an external memory, for a team — and change them however you like.

What you write decides what it becomes.

Task

One line with a date and a duration. The simplest it can be.

title only

Project

Add steps and the progress and the next step appear.

Notebook

Write underneath and it becomes a document you can search.

Vault

It stays out of search and out of every list. Nothing you keep there shows up in passing.

Record

Give it an amount and it adds up in your money view.

Archive

What you let go of is not deleted: it still comes back when you search for it.
