ClearMind
Read full descriptionHide full description
ClearMind is a private brain dump tool for when your mind won’t shut up. Write for 60 seconds, release it, and move on - without turning your thoughts into an endless journal. Instead of organizing notes, folders, and lists, ClearMind focuses on one thing: mental offload. Use it when you’re overthinking, mentally cluttered, stressed, or stuck in a loop - especially before sleep or before important moments. Unlike note-taking apps, ClearMind is designed to help you let go, not archive everything. Your dumps can be cleared by default, and you decide if anything should be saved. KEY FEATURES • One-tap brain dump - start writing instantly • 60-second timer (optional) to stop spiraling • Simple prompts to remove blank-page friction ( Pro ) • “Release & Clear” flow - dump it, then let it go • Local-first privacy - no account required • Optional save mode (Pro) for when you want to keep something PLANS Free ClearMind can be used for free with core features: • Unlimited brain dumps • Timer on/off (basic) • Default writing starters • Release & Clear (default) • Offline use / local-only ClearMind Pro – Lifetime ClearMind Pro (Lifetime) is a one-time purchase that unlocks: • Save mode (keep selected dumps) • Short writing starters to help you begin (work stress, bedtime, overthinking, etc.) Upgrading is optional - you can continue using the free version anytime.

CAPTURE EVERYTHING, FORGET NOTHING Dump anything into one place: notes, photos, voice memos, documents, screenshots, and now your X (Twitter) bookmarks - including post images. No folders. No tags. No filing system to maintain. MEMORY THAT GETS SMARTER Dump doesn’t just save your data. It enriches it before it reaches memory. Add a business card, and Dump automatically finds LinkedIn profiles, company details, and relevant context from the web - turning raw information into connected knowledge. FIND BY MEANING, NOT FILENAMES Describe what you vaguely remember and Dump finds it. Our on-device semantic search understands context, not just keywords.

X BOOKMARKS, NOW IN YOUR SECOND BRAIN Connect your X (Twitter) account and sync your saved bookmarks directly into Dump. Posts, threads, and images are stored privately on your device and searchable by meaning - no more losing tweets you meant to revisit. 100% PRIVATE. ALWAYS.
