notion is great.
for after you've figured it out.
but what about the mess before that?
this is the before:
- 47 tabs you're terrified to close.
- that ChatGPT answer. chat #32. or #28?
- cool shit buried in yesterday's rabbit hole.
- 13 Claude Code sessions. 6 terminals.
the mess before it all makes sense.
use cases
side project #14 (this one ships)
API docs, terminal outputs, claude code sessions, todos — all in one view while you ship.
ALBUM_v4_FINAL_maybe
references, moodboards, and 47 versions of the same file. finally seeing the whole picture.
3 sources required, 67 tabs open
every source, every note, every rabbit hole — organized before the deadline hits.
what lives on your desk
terminal
browser tabs
everything elsewhere chaos gets to work.
Letter to You
Hey. We're a team building something we wanted to use ourselves.
I keep 47 tabs open, my thoughts are scattered everywhere, and ideas just keep coming. Tools with rigid structures (spreadsheets, lists, Notion) never worked for me.
So we decided to build our own.
Right now we're running 12 Claude Code terminals in this app, task tracking on the right side, weekly habit checklist pinned up, 4 browser tabs, and YouTube lofi girl playing. All in one desk.
We're building in the open. Plugin SDK is live, so anyone can create blocks and build their own desk however they want. If something's missing, build it. If something's broken, let us know.
Thank you.
—— Marc & Matt, messy minds
this is not for you if:
- you love spreadsheets
- your desktop is perfectly organized
- you think linearly
this is for you if:
- your brain has 47 tabs open
- you sketch ideas on napkins
- you think in spaces, not lists
