Not just a note-taking app — a knowledge graph Notes, articles, web clips, feeds — everything is automatically embedded, tagged, and linked to related ideas. Your knowledge base organizes itself as it grows. Semantic Search Find ideas by meaning, not just keywords. Vector embeddings surface related notes even when the words don't match. Wiki Synthesis LLM-generated wiki articles synthesize everything under a tag, with inline citations linking back to your original notes. Agentic Chat Chat with an AI that searches your notes mid-conversation — scoped to a single tag or your whole library. It cites sources, not hallucinations. Spatial Canvas Visualize your knowledge as a force-directed graph. Semantically related atoms cluster together. Zoom, pan, and explore the topology of your ideas. Auto-Tagging Drop in a note and get back a tag tree — topics, people, places, organizations, events. No folders to maintain. The taxonomy builds itself. MCP Integration Give Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client direct access to your knowledge base. Search, read, and create atoms without leaving your workflow. Wiki Synthesis Your knowledge, synthesized Atomic generates wiki articles from everything under a tag — your notes, saved articles, web clips. Every claim is backed by inline citations linking to the source. Articles update incrementally as you add more.
