For researchers, consultants and insight teams tired of hunting through interviews, reports and notes. Keep one project in Thread, find what supports a claim, and open the original note, page or recording to check it.
No account requiredYour data stays yoursAI optional
Start with one anonymised project. No migration or team rollout. See how it works
When a client challenges a finding, you need the source, not another afternoon opening files. Test Thread on one question from one anonymised project before changing how you work.
20 minutes · Arrange by email · No account needed to enquire
An interview behind a claim, a passage in a report, or the reason a decision changed.
Save the relevant notes and files, search them, and check the source. AI answers require a local model or your own provider key; search works without either.
Thread is an individual workspace today. Shared team workspaces are not yet available. Keep your existing tools while you evaluate it.
Thread keeps what you saved, where it came from, and what you decided — so a question months later has something real to stand on.
Keep everything together. Save notes, documents, links, and recordings in one place.
Keep the context with it. People, topics, and decisions stay attached — including when a decision changes.
Find more than you remember. Search your knowledge, ask questions, and open answers you can verify.
* Tags and summaries need a local model or your own key. Suggestions never rewrite what you wrote.
Type a note, paste a link, drop a file, or press the mic. Thread says Saved. the moment it is on your device. Documents, images, and recordings become searchable in the background.
No filing system required. New captures land in the Inbox. Move them into a Space later — or never. Search finds them either way.

The launch was moved to October, with the initial scope reduced to three core services. The earlier plan included five, but the September review prioritized meeting the revised deadline.

Launch date: October. Scope: three core services — onboarding, billing, and reporting. Integrations and the public API move to a later release.

Thread doesn’t turn model output into certainty. It keeps the evidence close enough to inspect before you rely on the answer.
Plans evolve. Decisions change. Thread keeps the history, so you can understand what was decided, what came before, and why it matters.
The current decision is what you see now. The earlier one stays in the history, and documents keep an earlier version when what they say changes. If two statements conflict and nothing marks a correction, Thread asks you instead of guessing.

12 Jun
EarlierDecision [Launch]: Launch in September, covering five services.
Kept for history. Left out of current answers.
4 Sep
Unconfirmed ideaHypothesis [Launch]: We might still ship all five if the design review finishes early.
Kept as an idea, not as what was decided.
18 Sep
CurrentDecision [Launch]: No, October — three core services, so the date holds.
This is the current plan. It replaces the September decision.
Where things stand
Ask: “What did we agree on for the launch?”
Questions about how things stand use the October plan. Questions about what changed can still see the earlier September plan.

Thread is useful wherever material piles up faster than you can organise it — and you’ll need it again.
Papers, slides and your reading notes in one Space. Search the text inside every PDF and ask with citations to the page.
One Space per engagement, device-only rules where confidentiality needs them, decisions kept per client.
Goals, constraints and decisions as one-line statements. Each Space keeps a current “where things stand”.
Record right after the call. The transcript joins the project’s search and can be cited by Ask.
Lecture slides, readings and your own notes searchable together — ask what you studied, see where it came from.
Ideas, scanned letters, plans and quotes. Capture in seconds; find them by any word when they matter.
Notes stay on this device first. Sync is optional and hosted in the EU. AI is off until you choose a local model or your own key.
Notes apps arrange pages. An AI chat keeps a conversation. Thread keeps material you can cite.
When the job is getting notes, files and decisions back — and which parts of a Notion wiki should stay in Notion.
A browser workspace for notes, PDFs, images and voice — and when a markdown vault is still the better home.
For work you keep, not a notebook you upload for one sitting. Sources stay on this device unless you choose otherwise.
Keep your information local, choose when to sync, and decide whether to use AI. Thread puts you in control of your knowledge, and you can export it at any time.

Use the AI you prefer, or use Thread without it. Leave it off, run a model on your own computer, or connect a provider you already pay for. Thread doesn’t resell AI or meter prompts.
Capture, extraction, search and Ask without a model all keep working.
Nothing is sent anywhere for AI.
LM Studio or Ollama on your computer adds titles, summaries, tags, meaning-based search and written answers.
Requests stay on that computer. No AI charge from Orbit.
Anthropic, OpenAI or Google. Relevant excerpts pass through Thread’s relay to that provider.

Thoughtful, practitioner essays on decision drift, attention fragmentation, and durable knowledge systems. Written for managers, writers, and anyone juggling complex information.
Managers & TeamsJason GoodmanMost organizational churn isn't caused by bad decisions; it is caused by forgotten decisions. When the context that justified a trade-off fades into chat history, teams lose hours defending yesterday's choices.
Writers & ThinkersAndrew NeelAcquiring information feels like learning, but it is merely logistics. Until you wrestle an idea into your own phrasing and link it to an existing doubt, you have only stored bytes, not knowledge.
Everyday WorkSean PollockCognitive fatigue rarely comes from deep intellectual labor. It comes from attention residue: the half-second penalty our brains pay every time we glance away from a draft to check an unread badge.

If you don’t subscribe, your Thread stays yours: read it, search it, export it. Prices include VAT where applicable; payments processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd (London, UK) as Merchant of Record with 0% B2B reverse charge for verified EU and UK businesses. AI provider costs (only if you use your own cloud key) are billed by that provider.
Anything else? The docs cover every feature in detail.
Notes apps and Notion are built around writing and arranging pages. AI chats keep a conversation, not your material. Thread is built around getting things back: it extracts text from files, images and voice, keeps typed decisions with their history, searches everything on your device, and answers with citations you can open. It can also import the Notion pages you choose. It is not a database wiki, and shared workspaces are not available yet.
Thread includes a 30-day full trial with every individual feature enabled. After the trial, Thread costs €10/month or €96/year. If you don’t subscribe, your Thread becomes read-only — you can still open, search and export your data at any time.
No. You can start the 30-day trial without a credit card. Thread only charges you if you explicitly choose a paid subscription.
Nothing is deleted. Your Thread becomes read-only: you can continue to open, search and export everything. Subscribe at any time to continue adding and editing.
No. Thread does not meter notes, Spaces, searches or AI prompts, and does not resell AI tokens. Run a model locally or connect your own Anthropic, OpenAI or Google key; any provider charges are billed by that provider. Normal technical safeguards still apply (for example, a single file can be up to 200 MB).
On your device first, in your browser’s private storage. With an account and sync turned on, a copy of your workspace is stored in our EU-hosted database, protected per workspace. Items and Spaces marked “Keep on this device only” are never uploaded. Payments are handled by Paddle; we never see your card details.
Yes. Without an account, Thread runs on one device — nothing is synced, and the 30-day trial has not started. Create an account when you want sync across devices; the trial starts then, and nothing already on the device is lost.
Yes. When you cancel, paid access continues until the end of the current billing period. After that, Thread becomes read-only. Your data remains available to read, search and export.
Thread Team will add shared workspaces, roles and permissions, and team memory. It is not available yet; it is planned at €15 per user/month or €144 per user/year. Join the waitlist in the pricing section and we’ll let you know when it’s ready.
