Brainy
Frictionless capture Capture · Inbox
Save text notes, URLs, meeting notes, and documents the moment they appear — no upfront classification required. Everything lands in the Inbox, ready to process when you are.
The full index
Everything a second brain needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Every feature exists to save you time, reduce mental clutter, and turn what you know into something useful. No storage for storage's sake.
PARA organization Organize · Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives
Organize close to action with smart suggestions for project, area, resource, or archive — plus tags and related notes. Flat, purposeful structure instead of deep nested folders.
Progressive summarization Distill · Highlights, Summaries, Actions
Highlight what matters, capture key takeaways, decisions, and open questions, and extract action items — so a note is still useful when you return to it months later.
Projects, tasks & subtasks Execute · Boards, Lists, Priorities
Every task lives in its project context with status, priority, and due dates. Plan in the Tasks Hub and Calendar; execute from Today. Archived work stays out of active views.
Today screen Focus · Your daily front page
Your current task, high-priority project work, due today, overdue, and what's next — one calm surface for active execution, not knowledge storage.
Goals & ideas Direction · Milestones, Kanban, Incubation
Track goals with milestones and timelines, and let ideas incubate until they're ready to become real projects — connected to the knowledge that inspired them.
Outputs Express · Posts, Reports, Specs, Briefs
Turn stored knowledge into blog posts, reports, product specs, and meeting briefs. Brainy keeps the sources linked, so every output can show its receipts.
Trustworthy AI assistance Assist · Suggestions with provenance
AI suggests PARA placement, extracts action items, detects related notes, and summarizes without losing nuance. It explains why, never invents sources, and AI-generated content is always labeled — with your original preserved.
Search & retrieval Find · Across everything you keep
Find notes, tasks, and outputs fast — filtered by PARA category and scoped to active work by default, so archives never clutter results.
Reversible archives Preserve · Nothing is ever lost
Archive projects, notes, and tasks with the reason preserved. Restore anything at any time — inactive doesn't mean gone.
Neurodivergent-friendly focus Focus · ADHD & AuDHD friendly
Frictionless capture for racing thoughts, one calm Today screen for easy re-entry after distraction, and structure that remembers so you don't have to. Predictable, low-stimulation UI — overdue is information, never shame.
Your knowledge, ready to work for you.
Start free and feel the difference the first time an old note saves your day.
