Get more return on investment for time reading papers

Build up a rich library of tagged annotations as you read. Then search them by tag to compare what different papers say about each topic to spark new insights.

Tags for Power Users

Instead of just having a normal list of tags, you can structure your tags like a filesystem. This lets you create tag groups for easier searching and filtering.

Manage many projects at once

No need to open and close files when you change contexts; just move to a different workspace. Everything stays right where you left it. Tab hoarders, may we introduce you to workspace hoarding? Or you can keep it clean if that's your thing.

Work Wherever You Are

All your files are stored locally so you can work even when you don't have an internet connection.

Free Forever

Thinky will always be free for individual local use. Eventually we'll have a paid plan for cloud sync, similar to Zotero and Obsidian.

Ready when you are

Make your research remember itself.
