## What is Kosmik?

Kosmik is a spatial web browser for creative people, a place to browse, capture and organize information.

Forget about lost bookmarks and unconnected tabs, with Kosmik, your websites stay connected to your projects, alongside images, text, PDFs, and other media. 

Whatever you do, Kosmik allows you to streamline your workflow, from ideation to production, so you can concentrate on deep thinking and creating. 

**1.  BROWSE THE WEB AND EXTRACT CONTENT.**

If you find content or images you want to save, just drag them into the canvas.

**2. CONNECT AND ANNOTATE.** 

Move content around the canvas and use arrows to visually connect information. If you work on an iPad, use the Apple pencil to draw or annotate.

**3. CREATE AND SHARE.**

 When you are happy with your final product, publish and share it with friends or clients.

We built Kosmik upon the idea that software should feel liberating and help you create, work and grow. This is why Kosmik is: 

**MULTI-DEVICE.** Available as a native Mac and iPad app and a web app.

**OFFLINE-FIRST.** When you connect, your content will be synced on all your devices.

**PRIVATE.** End-to-end encrypted, we can’t see any of your data, we don’t keep it in our servers, and we will never sell it.

## Key features

### 3/5 — So much potential

*2023-10-13*

The concept and vision is sound.

### 1/5 — Team seems to have abandoned its early users.

*2023-10-03*

No update in months and Mac app doesn't even work whatsoever.

### 2/5 — Stopped working

*2023-06-06*

It used to work fine. For the past two weeks the main page that appears after logging in is empty/grey. And the buttons to add cards, text, images don't do anything anymore.

### 5/5 — A place to think

*2023-02-07, version 1.8.0*

Active canvas space transforms how I think, organize and share

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind feedback ! We are glad that you are enjoying Kosmik, don't hesitate to share with us the universe you've made ! 

Best, 

The Kosmik Team

### 3/5 — Let me sign in!

*2022-11-13, version 1.7.0*

2022 update:  I managed to get a “code” in e-mail; however, now I cannot enter a “username”.  Please provide us with an e-mail address so we may contact your Team with problems such as this.  I look forward to actually using your app on my iPad!
2021 review:  Got an invite and went through sign-up procedure. Seems great so far. Apparently app is in very early stages. We can add a variety of media to an "infinite" whiteboard. I'll update my review as I use it more. Encountered a problem and have contacted developers...

**Developer response:** Hello, sorry about that... We ask you to create an account to securely encrypt your data. We will add an anonymous « guest » mode later on but the data produced in that mode will be unencrypted. 

We do not store your password, we do not have access to your data in any way. We encrypt it on device and send it to a remote server only so that you can access it from multiple devices. If you open your account on another machine, the data is sent encrypted to that and unencrypted locally. Let me know if we can be helpful in any other way.

### 5/5 — Like it

*2022-08-25, version 1.6.0*

Is there a chance you might include a bigger font choice??

**Developer response:** Hello @kmrove, 

We added new font sizes in our latest release (1.8), hope you will like it ! 
Let us know ;) 

Best, 

The Kosmik Team

### 5/5 — Don't be unfair

*2022-05-19, version 1.5.3*

The app is still in beta, so I feel some of these reviews are unfair. I'm currently using Kosmik and recognize the potential of the software can be game-changing. I haven't had any issues so far and the team has been extremely responsive on Discord. Ana helped me with onboarding and she did a great job. I'm looking forward to the improvements coming in the pipeline.

### 3/5 — Finally it’s out.

*2022-05-17, version 1.5.3*

Checking as to how useful it really is.

### 1/5 — Buggy, slow and devoid of documentation

*2021-08-27, version 1.4.6*

It is not possible that this software has a 5.0 rating.   There is no documentation, which on the surface isn't too bad, as one can kind of figure out how it works, but my goodness  if it does work, it is slow.  

Some times it doesn't work.  I tried to upload 3 pdfs in a row and it uploaded the first two and I could never upload a document after that.   You can't upload a figure unless it is in your pictures directory, which I don't use - My relevant figures are in downloads or on the desktop - so I can't upload figures.    

Low and behold, I can't use Kosmik - yet.

**Developer response:** Hello OldEngProf, 
we are deeply sorry about your experience with the app... You can upload pictures that are not in your Photos app by using the "File" object which will get access to your classic file system. Feel free to ping us here, we also offer dedicated onboarding to any user if you'd like too. Have a great day, 

Kosmik team
