obs

A knowledge base with connectors.

SHIPPED

A personal knowledge base where anything can be anything. Notes are plain markdown, connected to each other with a kind, a weight and a why; the dashboard is computed from the connections, and a writer bot turns the notes into a book.

The problem

Note apps either force a structure up front or leave a pile of files with no shape. Trackers, tags and folders turn thinking into filing.

The solution

Write fast and messy. The assistant proposes notes and connections, the graph gives the dashboard its shape, and a writer bot reads it all back as chapters.
