TopicFlow turns AI chats into reusable notes, plans, outlines, decisions, and summaries. Instead of leaving every AI conversation as one long thread, TopicFlow gives your thinking structure. Keep your main line clear, branch into focused follow-up chats, then bring the strongest results back into reusable work. What you can do with TopicFlow: - Capture ideas before they disappear from long chat threads. - Branch AI chats for questions, alternatives, research notes, and next steps. - Refocus a conversation without rewriting prompts from scratch. - Turn selected discussion into notes, plans, requirements, decision records, or summaries. - Organize topic history locally on your device. - Use TopicFlow subscription access for DeepSeek-powered AI inside the app. - Export and share only when you choose. - Back up to your own iCloud or Google Drive app data space when backup is enabled. TopicFlow is built for writers, founders, builders, students, and independent thinkers who want AI conversations to produce durable work instead of disposable chat history. Important: TopicFlow subscription access unlocks the app workflow and hosted DeepSeek-powered AI features. AI availability, quotas, fees, rate limits, output rules, and terms may still be governed by DeepSeek and app store purchase rules. Terms of Use (EULA): https://specaxe.com/terms

Nova is your AI workspace. Describe what you need — or snap a photo, or just talk — and Nova plans it, writes it, and ships a finished result straight into your library. CREATE ANYTHING • Documents — briefs, reports, articles, long-form writing • Decks — clean slide presentations with a clear arc • Notes — Notion-style pages with checklists, callouts, tables and toggles • Sheets — spreadsheets and simple models with real data SNAP IT, DON'T TYPE IT Photograph a receipt, a whiteboard, handwritten notes or a printed page. Nova reads it and turns it into the right format — or appends it to a doc or sheet you already have. SPEAK YOUR IDEAS Dictate prompts instead of typing. Nova transcribes and gets to work. A REAL EDITOR Edit everything afterwards with a fast, focused editor: headings, lists, to-dos, quotes, code, links, colors, images — plus an in-line "Ask Nova" to rewrite, expand or summarize any selection. YOUR CALENDAR, CONNECTED See and manage your events, and connect Apple, Google or Outlook calendars. EVERYTHING IN ONE LIBRARY Organize your work into folders — or let Nova auto-organize it for you.
