Save
Capture in one paste
Paste a link, jot a thought, drop a quote. Pensieve auto-detects URLs and stores them as inline pills — the rest becomes your personal note.
Frictionless Capture. Intelligent Retrieval
Pensieve allows you capture things you’d want to recall—articles, YouTube videos, spontaneous thoughts—and lets you find them easily with natural language.
Request Access
One overlay. Two modes
Press ⌘⇧K from anywhere. The overlay knows whether you want to save something or find something.
Ask
Find it in plain English
Type the half-remembered version: 'that thing about memory not being reliable.' Vector search plus a quick LLM rewrite surfaces the captures you meant.
A memory you don’t have to maintain.
Pensieve absorbs everything you mean to remember — ideas, files, scattered saves — and gives them back when you ask.
Capture, don’t file.
Drop in a thought with ⌘⇧K. No folders, no tags. Pensieve still finds it later.
⌘⇧K
Recall in plain English.
Type the half-remembered version — “that thing about memory” — and Pensieve pulls the captures you meant.
