Swonk - speak it, sort it, done? trash it. You're rushing out the door. Flight tomorrow morning. But you need groceries now because when you get back Sunday night you want to actually cook, not order takeout again. So you're walking to Trader Joe's, head full of everything: "Okay so Trader Joe's run right now, need olive oil, pasta, that frozen orange chicken, spinach, eggs, garlic, and the good bread. Budget like 60 bucks. Then tonight pack for Austin, charge the headphones, print the Airbnb confirmation, set alarm for 5am. Flight lands 11, uber to hotel probably 30 bucks, hotel is 180 a night for two nights, dinner with Jake Friday around 50, maybe rent a bike Saturday..." You just said all of that into Swonk. When you look at your phone, it's not a wall of text. It's this: TRADER JOE'S olive oil pasta frozen orange chicken spinach eggs garlic bread budget: $60 TONIGHT [ ] Pack for Austin [ ] Charge headphones [ ] Print Airbnb confirmation [ ] Set alarm 5am AUSTIN TRIP uber_to_hotel: $30 hotel_per_night: $180 nights: 2 hotel_total = $360 dinner_friday: $50 bike_rental: $25 = $465 Everything separated. Nothing forgotten. Check things off as you go. Sunday night you land, you're exhausted, you open Swonk. Trader Joe's list is still there. Eggs. Spinach. Garlic. You didn't forget. Trip over? Trash the card. That's Swonk. Not a notes app. Not a planner. Not another thing to maintain. Just a place to dump your brain when it's moving too fast. Structure it. Use it. Trash it. Your friend Venmos you for concert tickets. "Hey what's 240 split 6 ways?" You don't open calculator. You say "240 split 6" into Swonk. $40 each. Done. You're texting your boss but you're walking and can't type. "Message to Sarah, running about ten minutes late, subway was stuck, starting the call from my phone." Swonk cleans it up. You copy, paste, send. You're traveling and everything is in dollars but you're paying in euros. "What's 100 dollars in euros?" Swonk gets the live rate. What about that Airbnb in pounds? "350 pounds to dollars." Live rate. You're timing yourself on a task. "Stopwatch." A timer appears in your note. Tap play. That's it. You're at dinner, everyone's throwing cards down. "Dinner was 186, split 5 ways, plus 20 percent tip." Swonk does the math before the server comes back. You're planning your friend's birthday. 30 people. Venue. Catering. Cake. Decorations. You say it all in one breath. Swonk turns it into a budget with a checklist. Things change? Edit one number and everything recalculates. You've got a crumpled receipt from last night. Point your camera at it. Swonk reads it, pulls out the items, adds up the total. No typing You're watching a YouTube recipe video but don't want to keep rewatching it. Paste the link into Swonk. It pulls the ingredients into a shopping list, steps into a checklist. Same for workout videos, coding tutorials, travel guides. Notes from the video, ready to use.

Read full description

Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.
