Problem

Too many scattered applications all focused on the same end goal - personal data & productivity. Organization becomes cluttered and fragmented switching between apps.

Solution

Build a single source of truth that acts as a personal data lake. Integrate this data with a collection of layouts that allow the user to best display, organize and interact with their data.
