We can't unsee it.

It’s easy to find inspiring ideas in books, newsletters and podcasts. However, keeping the most inspiring ideas on top of mind and connecting them across different sources is tedious.

We use notebooks, note-taking apps and more sophisticated tools for thought. All those tools are great for storing information, but they don’t augment thinking.

We build Napkin to extract core concepts, connect them across different sources and show them in context. 

Napkin creates a network of thoughts that evolves like a living system with a minimalistic interface comfortable for human minds. Its design doesn’t start with constraints of the physical world, it starts with human thinking and emotion.
