Freemium

An infinite-canvas project board where AI coding agents connect over MCP, subscribe to cards and reply in chat alongside the team.

MCP Agent Boards: Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT connect over MCP, subscribe to a board and reply in card chat while they work, so agents behave like teammates rather than external tools.
Infinite Canvas Workspace: Tasks, notes and planning share one zoomable surface, replacing separate tracker, whiteboard and chat tools.
AI Workflow Planner: Generates and sequences the work for a board so a project can be broken down without manual ticket writing.
AI Card Assistant: A per-card helper that drafts, summarizes and answers questions inside the context of a single task.
Meeting Note Taker: Captures meeting notes using one-time workspace credits and extracts actionable tasks straight onto the board.
Per-Workspace Pricing: A flat workspace fee covering up to 15 seats on the Pro plan, so adding an engineer never triggers a surprise invoice.
Integrations and Webhooks: HMAC-signed webhooks plus Zapier and Make connections, with API access and LLM API tokens on higher tiers.
Real-Time Collaboration: Live multi-user editing with voice chat, screen sharing, sprints, time tracking and a timeline view.

Agent-Assisted Development: Letting a coding agent pick up a card, do the work and report progress in the same thread the team is reading.
Tool Consolidation: Replacing a Jira, Slack and Miro combination with a single canvas for engineering leads tired of context-switching.
Small Team Planning: Running sprints, timelines and time tracking for a startup team on a flat monthly workspace fee.
Meeting-to-Backlog Workflow: Turning recorded meeting notes into extracted, assigned board tasks without manual transcription.
Automated Intake: Collecting work through embeddable forms that create cards automatically on the right board.
Cross-Tool Automation: Wiring board events to Zapier or Make through signed webhooks so downstream systems stay in sync.

Minimi is an ambient memory Mac app that quietly captures tabs, documents, calls, and Slack threads to provide context for Claude.

Ambient Memory Capture: Continuously records user activity on macOS — including open browser tabs, documents, calls, and Slack threads — to create a persistent context layer.
Claude Context Integration: Supplies collected context to Claude to improve response relevance and maintain continuity across conversations.
Background Mac App: Runs quietly on the Mac, minimizing user friction while maintaining an ongoing record of interactions across apps.
Meeting Notetaker Support: Enables creation of live artifacts such as Mini-scribe, a Granola-style AI meeting notetaker that operates entirely on Minimi memory.
Inbox for Incomplete Conversations: Acts as an AI inbox that surfaces and preserves incomplete or ongoing conversations for follow-up and continuity.
Context-First Responses: Ensures every Claude response can start with rich, user-specific context gathered from recent activity.
Continuous background capture of user activity (browser tabs, documents, calls, Slack threads)
Centralized ambient memory to provide context to Claude conversations
Inbox-style management for incomplete or ongoing conversations
Enables context-rich downstream tools (e.g., meeting notetakers like "Mini-scribe")
Quiet/background operation aimed at minimizing user friction

Enhancing Claude chat quality by pre-loading recent tabs, documents, and messages so answers reflect the user's current context and work.
Automated meeting notetaking: running a Mini-scribe artifact that uses Minimi memory to generate meeting notes and action items without manual setup.
Managing an inbox of incomplete or pending conversations, enabling easier follow-up and continuity across asynchronous threads.
Research and writing assistance: providing the assistant with the user's active documents and tabs so drafting and summarization use accurate source context.
Cross-app context retrieval: surfacing recent Slack discussions, call notes, and opened documents to inform decisions and reduce repetitive explanations.
Provide persistent context to Claude for better, context-aware assistant responses
Automatically capture meeting context to power AI meeting notes and summaries
Aggregate fragmented conversation threads (email, Slack, docs) into a unified inbox of incomplete tasks
Recall past interactions and documents when composing responses or continuing conversations
Power custom Claude-based agents that rely on personal desktop context
