Notes, tasks, people and days, in one place you own

Everything you put in comes back.

Your notes live in four apps, your tasks in three, and the thing you saved last month is gone. nodos gathers it into one place and brings the right thing back when it matters: on the right day, on the right person, in the right project.

Your space

Every note is a star. Today is the sun.

This is the note above, charted like a page from an old star atlas. Link someone in it, or give a line a #type, and the new star is engraved onto the plate. Things you link often grow brighter.

Where it comes back

You wrote it on Tuesday. Here's where it turns up.

  1. 01Wednesday morning

    What you didn't finish is waiting for you.

    Each daily note opens with the tasks you left open on earlier days. One click moves them all to today.

  2. 02On Anna's page

    Every note about her, even the ones you forgot to link.

    Backlinks list the places you linked her. Unlinked mentions find the times you just typed "Anna". One click links them.

  3. 03March 8

    A gift task you never wrote.

    A small rule watches her birthday and adds the task a week ahead. You set it up once.

Objects, not documents

Give a line a #type and it becomes a thing.

A type brings its own fields, icon and views. Pick one and watch the line change.
