Handwritten notes, PDF markup, and AI study tools on one canvas
Low-latency ink with palm rejection, cross-out to erase, and handwriting-to-text conversion keeps writing close to pen on paper.
Import contracts, papers, or textbooks and mark them up by hand, with searchable annotations and clean exports.
Search across typed text, handwriting, and sketches, and turn notes into summaries, mind maps, or structured plans.
Work together in shared notebooks, documents, and whiteboards simultaneously, without version conflicts or file ping-pong.

A private, visual AI space to save and remember anything — no folders, no tagging
Save notes, links, quotes, images, articles, PDFs and videos in one click, and let mymind categorize them automatically instead of building folder structures.
Find saved items by color, brand, keyword or date. Image text recognition even lets you search words that appear inside screenshots, memes or handwriting.
Images get tagged automatically, and Mastermind members get paragraph summaries of articles, web pages and PDFs so old saves are still useful months later.
Smart Spaces auto-group saves around a search, theme or tag, while Same Vibe builds a mood board from images you already saved with a similar look and feel.
