Infinite visual canvas

Pan, zoom, and lay out ideas freely on a large canvas built for exploration rather than rigid documents or lists.

Cards, frames, and groups

Capture notes, questions, decisions, snippets, links, images, and PDFs, then organise them with frames and lightweight groups.

Relationship mapping

Connect cards to show support, dependency, contradiction, and other links so reasoning stays visible instead of buried in text.

Projects with multiple boards

Work across several boards inside a project, save snapshots, and switch context without losing structure.

Export and output

Export boards as PNG or Markdown, generate print views, and turn working canvases into summaries, outlines, briefs, or action lists.

Local-first workflow

Projects are stored locally, with board journals, metrics, and cross-project search available without relying on cloud services.
