A Second Brain
For Creators
One place for all of your ideas, notes, highlights, and writing.
"Kortex is like if Google docs, Notion, and Obsidian had a baby. All of my ideas, highlights, and past writing are finally in one place."

One Workflow
Kortex is built by creators who were fed up with tools that are decent for organization, but suck for writing.
Stop putting your ideas in one app, your notes in another, and your writing in another. This ruins the creative process without you realizing it (and you're probably annoyed with all the tabs you have open).
Fast Writing
You don't need an English degree to write in a way that helps you stand out. You need the right ideas, in the right place, at the right time.
You can't write fast because you stare at a blank screen and expect ideas to come to you. Kortex feeds you your best ideas when you need them.
Your Digital Garden
How many bookmarks, notes, captures, documents, and highlights are collecting dust in a corner of your workspace?
They should grow in value as you add more. Kortex helps you exchange your digital swamp for a digital garden.
"Been writing and dumping ideas into the app all week. Before I was putting ideas in random different place like Notion, Google Drive, etc. This app is giving me the opportunity to collect, compile, and organize. Freaking awesome."

For Minimalist Writers, Creators, & Note-Takers
Most apps add so many features that make it difficult to just write. We don't alienate those who want a simple workflow. Kortex is built around one simple workflow, capture and create.
Step 1
Capture Ideas Fast
Stop texting yourself ideas and reminders you forget about. Capture any idea, organize it quickly with tags, connect it to a document, and have it ready when it's time to write.

"I was an early adopter of using a second brain for writing. For years I used Roam Research. Kortex is a huge improvement. Without tools like Kortex, my career wouldn't be the same."

For Those Who Want A Bit More Power
Transfer your workflow to a less overwhelming environment (without sacrificing your favorite features). Kortex has everything you need to do it all: Build a second brain, write a best-selling book, create a batch of engaging social posts, or write a viral video script.
Eliminate Writer's Block
Build templates, outlines, and guide your writing with Kortex Elements. What looks like a simple feature has become an instant "must have" for note-takers and writers.
Never Lose An Idea Again
Most search features are useless. Kortex allows you to search by tags, related words, document contents, captures, elements, and highlights so you can find those long-lost ideas.
Own Your Knowledge
Never feel locked into Kortex. Export your files or workspace as markdown at any time.
Share Your Notes & Writing
Share individual documents and templates with friends, students, and teams, or create a new workspace for collaboration.
All Highlights In One Place
Save highlights from your favorite PDFs, books, tweets, articles, and more in a simple and searchable library view. Readwise integration available.
Avoid "Note Taker's Chaos"
Organize your documents, captures, and highlights to find them at the click of a button. Then, open them up to reference while you write.
