How it works

One desktopfor the whole job.

Gather the material, lay it out, find what you need, ask about it, share it and keep it, without switching apps.

Open a space
  1. 01

    Drop it all in.

    PDFs, recordings, photos, links and notes land on one board. Drag them from your computer or paste from anywhere.

    Three files dropped onto a board at once, one still uploading.
  2. 02

    Arrange it until it makes sense.

    Pile things up, file them in folders, open a folder six ways. On a board, the layout is part of the thinking.

    A note, a document and a folder of sources arranged in one group.
  3. 03

    Find it by what it means.

    Search a space by meaning, not only by the words in it. ⌘K opens every command.

    Search for consent forms, finding a note, a recording and a photo.
  4. 04

    Ask the assistant beside it.

    Put an assistant on the board next to the material. Run a model in the browser, or bring your own key.

  5. 05

    Bring people in.

    Sync the space and share a link. Cursors arrive live, and documents merge edits instead of replacing them.

  6. 06

    Keep the file.

    Export the whole space as one .space file, and open it again later, on this device or another.

    The whole space kept as one file that opens offline.

Local or synced

Pick per space,not per account.

Each space is kept on this device or synced, and both kinds open side by side. One on this device can start syncing whenever you like.

On this device

The space lives in this browser, on this computer or phone.

  • Kept in your browser, not on our servers
  • Works with the connection off
  • Unlimited on the free plan, permanently
  • Exports as one file you can open later

Synced

The space is kept on our servers and opens on every device you sign in on.

  • Live cursors and presence
  • Documents merge edits instead of replacing them
  • Share by link, to edit or to watch
  • Opens on your other devices

Ownership and privacy

Your files stay yours.Local ones, we never store.

A local space stays in your browser, so it is not on our servers. A synced space is stored by us so it can reach your other devices and the people you invite. Either kind exports as one file you keep.

A local space is kept on this device, not by us.

  • It lives in this browser and works with the internet off.
  • We do not store it. Two things pass through only when you use them: text sent to build search by meaning, and PDF or Office files you convert.
  • Clearing the browser’s data deletes it. Export it first to keep a copy.

We don’t store local spaces.

They stay in your browser. What passes through, and only when you use it: the parts an assistant reads, text for search by meaning, and files you convert.

Your work doesn’t train models.

What you send an assistant goes to the provider you chose, to answer that request. We never use your content to train AI models.

Bring your own key.

Your provider key is kept in this browser and sent with each request to that provider.

No ad trackers.

Analytics use no cookies and never follow you to other sites. There are no advertising cookies at all.

Take it, or take it back.

Export any space as one file. Delete your account and your profile, sign-ins and synced spaces go with it.

Lock what matters.

Lock a card with a passphrase and it’s scrambled in your browser. We store only the scrambled version and can’t open it with anything we keep.

Also in the box.

Every kind of thing. PDFs, video, audio, notes, tables, links, images and assistants on one canvas.

Live cursors and presence. See who is here and where they are looking, in synced spaces.

No overwrites. Notes and documents merge edits instead of replacing them.

Assistant in the browser. Run a model on this device, or bring your own key.

Search by meaning. Finds things in a space by what they are about, not just their names.

Export anything. A whole space as one file, or a picture as PNG, SVG or PDF.

Share by link. People you send it to do not need an account to look.

Edit or watch. Invite people to edit a space, or only to watch it.

Clipart library. Pieces from the Marketplace, ready to drag onto the board.

Starter kits. Templates and tutorials arrive as a space with the job already laid out.

Your app library. Apps you get wait in your library, ready to add to a space. They are early previews for now.

Keyboard shortcuts. Single keys for frames, text, notes and connectors, and ⌘K for every command.

Use cases

One desktop, set up for the work in front of you. From a class of thirty to a thesis nobody else may see.

Build a lesson on one board and share it with the class by link. The copy kept on your own laptop works without the wifi.

Questions

The ones peopleactually ask.

What is Atomics?

An infinite canvas you open in a browser tab. Drag in files, notes, images, video, PDFs, links and AI assistants, and arrange them until the arrangement is the thinking. The whole application runs in the tab, so it keeps working when the connection does not.

Does it really work offline?

Yes, for spaces kept on the device. Install it as an app and the browser runs the same application the server does: creating, editing, uploading and rich text keep working with the connection off, and so does an assistant running in the browser.

What is the difference between a local space and a synced one?

A local space is stored on your device, not on our servers, with no limit on how many you keep or how large they get. A synced space opens on your other devices, can be shared by link, and lets other people work in it live with you. You choose per space, and you can run both at the same time.

Can I get my work back out?

Any space exports as a single file, layout, entities and content together, on every plan including the free one, and imports the same way. There is no export queue and no downgraded format.

Does the assistant send my work somewhere?

Only if you pick a hosted model, and then only what it reads, to the provider behind that model. The model list includes ones that run in your browser, and with those selected nothing you are asking about leaves the machine you are asking from.

Do I need an account?

Not to use it. An account exists so spaces can sync between your devices and other people can join them. Local spaces work without one.

I have never heard of you. Why would I put my work here?

Fair. So you do not have to take our word for anything: open a space without signing up, work in it with the wifi switched off, and export the whole thing as one file before you decide.

Open a space.

About ten seconds, and nobody asks for an email address.
