Liminary

What is Liminary?

If you work with information for a living, you've probably felt it: that moment when you know you read something relevant six months ago but can't dig it out of the mess of scattered notes, bookmarks, and PDFs. Liminary solves that problem by acting like a second brain that doesn't need prompting.

The core idea is straightforward. You save things as you encounter them - web pages, PDFs, videos, LLM chat conversations, meeting notes, articles, anything. Liminary captures them in one place. But here's where it differs from yet another note-taking app: it doesn't just store and wait for you to search. It watches your work, **understands context**, and surfaces what you actually need right when you're working on a project.

Say you're building a competitive analysis for a new client and Liminary notices patterns. It pulls that market research from three months back, the deal memo from a similar situation, the blog post you saved from a competitor's announcement.

The value compounds for people who synthesize information for a living. Venture capital partners use it to spot patterns across deal memos and market research. Consultants building strategies get relevant prior work surfaced mid-project. Researchers reviewing literature find connections they'd normally miss. Policy analysts see how past work connects to current priorities. It's built for the people who already know information is power but are drowning in the logistics of organizing it.

One thing sets it apart from competitors like Notion or Roam Research: Liminary focuses on the synthesis side. Notion excels at team collaboration but lacks intelligent recall. Roam offers linking but doesn't proactively surface what matters. Liminary works differently. It grabs your saved knowledge, connects it, and presents it in the context of what you're doing. It's AI that acts like a thinking partner, not a search replacement.

The interface is clean. One-click saving through browser extensions. Inline summaries. Source tracking for everything. And critically, **Liminary keeps your data private**.

One user, a management consultant, put it well: Liminary doesn't replace thinking. It surfaces patterns and connections. But you still own the narrative. You're still in control.
