Stashwise is the second brain your AI can actually use. You already collect the good stuff: articles, videos, posts, ideas, tutorials, research, tools. But it piles up, disappears into folders, and goes missing the moment you need it. Worse, none of it is available to the AI tools you work in every day. Stashwise fixes both. Save a link, video, or note, and it pulls out the useful parts for you: summaries, key takeaways, topics, connections, and learning paths. Everything you keep becomes a structured, searchable personal wiki. Then it goes further than a notes app ever could. Connect your AI tools, and they can read and search everything you have saved, right inside your own workflow. You choose what goes in, so your assistant is grounded in sources you actually trust instead of whatever the open web returns. You are building the knowledge, and putting your AI to work on it. Collect what matters. Your AI uses it anywhere you want. - What you can do: - Give your AI your knowledge Connect Stashwise to your AI tools so they can draw on your saved library while you work, grounded in what you collected, not random web results. - Search your own collection Ask questions and get answers from the things you saved, not the open web. - Chat with your saves Understand articles, compare ideas, pull out details, and make sense of a messy collection. - Create Learn Guides Turn saved material into structured learning paths built from resources you already found interesting. - Analyze videos Save supported videos and clips so they become searchable, summarized, and easy to revisit. - Build a personal wiki automatically Stashwise extracts topics, summaries, and relationships without making you tag everything by hand. - Catch relevant trends See emerging topics that connect back to your saved knowledge, so new ideas are easier to place. - Own your knowledge Your wiki is never locked in. Export to Markdown or Obsidian, keep a local backup, or bring your saved context into your own workflows. Your notes, your wiki, and your AI should all be able to use the knowledge you already collected. - Who it is for Stashwise is for builders, students, researchers, creators, and curious people who save more than they can process. If your bookmarks, notes, and watch lists are a pile you meant to come back to, Stashwise turns that pile into knowledge you and your AI can actually use. Collect the knowledge. Put your AI to work on it. Grow a brain you own. Terms of Use (EULA): https://stashwise.co/terms Privacy Policy: https://stashwise.co/privacy

About

Orbit

Orbit is a second brain for the things you don't want to forget — moments, ideas, voice notes, photos, the link you saved at 2am. Everything lives in one calm timeline that AI quietly organizes for you. No tagging. No folder hierarchy. No notification fatigue. Just capture, and let Orbit find the meaning later. — WHAT YOU GET — • Capture anything in seconds — text, voice memos, photos, links, screenshots, even a place. Apple Intelligence handles the rest: titles, tags, summaries, categorization. • Daily Recap — a one-paragraph reflection of your day, generated each evening from the moments worth revisiting. • Ask Orbit — chat with your own memories. Ask "what did Pamela say last weekend?" or "what was the restaurant in Roatan?" Orbit answers from your captures, never from the cloud. • On This Day, Year in Review, Time Capsules — Orbit surfaces your past at the right moment. • Tasks that find themselves — write "I should call mom tomorrow" anywhere in a memory and Orbit suggests it as a task. Promote what you mean. Ignore what you don't. • Reading list & habit tracking — captures like "I want to read…" or "ran 5k" land in their own surfaces, quietly tracked over time. • Beautiful share cards — turn a memory, a Daily Recap, or a Year in Review into an editorial-quality image, ready for Stories, iMessage, or just keeping. • Privacy by design — On-device AI via Apple Intelligence. Voice transcribed locally. Sleep + steps stay on your phone. iCloud sync runs end-to-end. Nothing is sold. Nothing is shared. — DESIGNED FOR APPLE — Lock Screen camera capture · Apple Watch voice notes · Siri Shortcuts · Spotlight search · Home Screen widgets · Safari extension · Share extension · iOS Reminders & Calendar sync · HealthKit sleep + steps in your Daily Recap — PRO — A monthly or annual subscription unlocks unlimited captures and the full AI surfaces. Cancel anytime from Settings → Subscription. — WHY WE BUILT IT — Journaling apps ask too much. Note apps forget everything. The things we want to remember keep slipping away. Orbit is what we wished existed — a calm, native, private place where life can quietly accumulate, and an AI that helps you find what matters without taking over the experience.
