We learn better when we write. Putting an idea in our own words forces us to understand it. Connecting it to other ideas helps it last. MyZettel is a canvas for that work. Each thought gets its own short note. Related notes sit near each other. Links come as you write. Over time, the canvas becomes a map of what you understand. - An infinite canvas: put notes where they make sense, and move them as your thinking changes. - Links from writing: link a note while you write. Every link shows which way it goes, even to a note far away. - Read in place: open a linked note without leaving the one you are reading. - Note types: keep rough thoughts, your own conclusions, and ideas from a source apart. - Search and a minimap to find any note on a large canvas. - Made for iPhone, iPad and Mac. - Free to use. No sign-up. No third-party servers. MyZettel is inspired by the Zettelkasten method, but you do not need to know it to start. A sample canvas in the app shows how it works.

Every AI app wants to be the only AI app you use. GPT wants you to stay in GPT. Claude wants you to stay in Claude. Gemini wants you to stay in Gemini. Nobody built the natural layer — the thing that sits above all of them and makes sure your context travels with you when you switch. Every time you switch between AI apps, you start from zero. Your context disappears. Your history is lost. You spend the first five minutes of every new conversation re-explaining who you are, what you're building, and where you left off. Zrem fixes exactly that. HOW IT WORKS: Open any AI app — GPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other Tap the share button inside any app — or highlight a specific response and share just that Select Zrem from the share sheet Zrem extracts what matters and saves it to your library Open your next AI directly from Zrem with your context ready to paste That's it. No copy-pasting. No re-explaining. No starting over. WHAT ZREM DOES: Save full conversations or specific snippets via the iOS share sheet Auto-organise contexts into Smart Folders by topic Get a personalised Morning Brief every day — your saved contexts, calendar, reminders, and Gmail (Coming Soon) One tap opens Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity with your context copied and ready YOUR TOOLS: Context Library — every saved context, tagged, searchable, and organised automatically into Smart Folders Templates — pre-built context structures for developers, students, writers, and businesses Prompt Library — curated prompts across coding, writing, research, business, study, creative, and productivity Workflows — chain prompts into multi-step sequences and work through complex tasks one step at a time Profiles — tell every AI who you are, how you work, and what you're building — once. Switch between profiles and export to any AI instantly Morning Brief — your AI day summarised at 9am.
