The Deck

Lightweight. Linked. Yours.

The Deck (aka “Deck”) is a small, pragmatic web workspace. Jot notes, collect bookmarks, manage tasks, keep files, and connect everything with links — for yourself or a small team.

About The Deck

A tool to boost productivity in your personal workflow or small working groups. The Deck isn’t trying to replace the “big tools.” It’s here to help you capture the small, everyday bits that usually end up in scattered text files, chats, or your head.

Use The Deck as a central start/meeting point to gather information. Each piece of information is a dataset (a flexible record). You can link datasets across apps — for example, link a note to a bookmark, or a task to a file — so context follows you.

Linked concept: everything connects. Build your own lightweight knowledge graph as you work.

info Beta status

We’re in a closed beta. The basics are complete and usable, but you may encounter bugs. We appreciate your patience and feedback.

At any time, you can export your data (see the Backup/Dump app). It’s your information.

privacy_tip A note on scope

The Deck focuses on “the small stuff” — the quick notes, the ad‑hoc tasks, the links you actually need today. It complements heavyweight project tools by covering the everyday gaps.
