About

Hunch

Features
Read full description

Hunch is your quiet second mind. It does not nag and it does not interrupt — it watches how your days run, learns your patterns and connects what belongs together: the half-forgotten project from last week with the thing you are working on right now. And when the moment is right, it leaves you a hunch that feels like your own thought. You talk to Hunch however suits you: by chat, by voice, or through your own channels. It connects to your computers and gets real work done when you ask — while keeping everything with you: your memory, your identity and your data stay on your devices. No foreign storage, no mandatory cloud. Hunch — it watches, connects, and whispers.
