About

Barside is a free desktop productivity app that brings together notes, tasks, reading, meetings, community spaces and AI tools. Notes support links, maps, drawings, kanban boards, tables and charts, and can be imported from Notion, Obsidian or Evernote. Checklists appear on a task board with due dates and reminders. Articles and newsletters go into a reading inbox for highlighting. Community and team spaces include chat, polls, shared notes and files. Video meetings include screen sharing and live captions; screen recordings can be added to notes and edited into captioned clips. An AI assistant and scheduled agents use accounts from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or OpenRouter, and changes can be undone. Barside connects to Claude Code and Cursor through MCP. The app also includes a password vault, clipboard history and system-wide search. Notes are stored locally and work without an account.

About

PastReads is an easy-to-use tool for collecting and managing reading highlights. It brings together highlights and notes from different sources, including Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, and web articles, into one searchable library. Users can tag, edit, and organize their highlights, making it easier to revisit and work with what they’ve read over time. The platform also offers a browser extension for saving text directly from the web, along with AI-based features that can summarize content, surface links between ideas, or let you interact with highlights in a conversational way. PastReads is designed to serve as a personal archive of reading insights, helping readers keep track of important ideas and return to them when needed. It also offers a recap feature, which enables users to receive daily or weekly overviews with their favorite highlights.
