How Amae works

Keep the path from inspiration to action intact.

Amae is a connected workspace for creative knowledge work. Capture what matters, develop your thinking, decide what comes next, and retrieve it later.

The complete loop

One workflow instead of a collection of disconnected apps.

Amae follows the real shape of creative work, from the first reference to the finished next step.

The objects we keep close

A study of useful things, quiet spaces, and lasting materials.

02 · Organize

Projects hold the work together.

The same project can contain references, active thinking, and concrete actions without forcing everything into the same format.

01

Shared projects

Organize Marks, Notes, and Tasks around the work they belong to.

02

Tags and filters

Browse by project, content type, tag, read state, or sort order.

03

Visual collections

Use moodboard, grid, or list views depending on what you need to see.

03 · Connect

References stay close to the thinking they sparked.

Embed Marks and Tasks inside Notes, link a Note back to saved material, and accept suggested actions only when they are useful.
