A personal operating system

Capture first.
Organize later.

The quiet place for everything on your mind. Write freely. CoreOS keeps the original safe, then lets AI put it where it belongs.

02 Organization comes after capture

The principle

Most tools ask you to organize before they let you save.

That tiny decision is enough to make a thought disappear. CoreOS removes it. There is one place to put something down, and time to decide what it means later.

Write the thing down. Keep the thing safe. Let the system do the sorting.

The quiet machinery

A simple order of operations.

CoreOS is deliberately boring in the best way: capture is immediate, organization is asynchronous, and your words are never rewritten to make the system look smarter.

  1. 01

    Capture

    Type whatever is in your head. No folders, forms, or decisions required.

    free-form text
  2. 02

    Persist locally

    The raw capture lands in SQLite on your device before any AI call is made.

    on-device first
  3. 03

    Classify with AI

    When the system is ready, a model suggests the domain and useful metadata.

    retryable
  4. 04

    Organize automatically

    Your original words arrive in Notes, Tasks, Expenses, Habits, or Sleep.

    five domains

Inside CoreOS

A calmer interface for a noisier life.

Three places you return to: what needs attention, what you want to capture, and what you have kept.

CoreOS Capture screen with a free-form text field and save button
02CaptureOne field. Anything you want to remember.
CoreOS Library screen with searchable, tagged notes
03LibraryFind it again when the moment is right.

One inbox, many lives

A place for the whole picture.

Notes are only the beginning. A single capture can become whatever kind of record it needs to be, without making you choose up front.

01NotesIdeas, references, and free-form text, kept as you wrote them.Markdown · FTS5 search · tags
02TasksAn intention becomes a task with a date and a priority.Natural dates · inline completion
03ExpensesExpenses captured in the same place, without changing context.Amount · category · date
04HabitsSmall records that do not need a separate app.Daily log · status
05SleepHours, quality, and rest are part of the system too.Hours · deep sleep · quality

The local-first promise

Your second brain should not need a second account.

CoreOS is built for one person, on one device. The database lives locally. Your key lives in secure storage. If the model fails, your original capture is still there waiting.

  • SQLite on deviceYour data lives where you use it.
  • No backend. No account.No remote service sitting between you and your notes.
  • Capture never gets lostAI can fail. The original text does not.
