Local-first software

We got tired of renting our own software

So we ditched our hosted task tracker and docs tool. WidgetFlow is an infinite canvas — notes, tasks, documents, and AI — that runs entirely on your machine, in a database only you control.

We use it every day. Not public yet.

The Problem

Your AI doesn't remember you. Its makers do.

ChatGPT and Claude store your conversations in someone else's cloud, in a black-box memory system you can't inspect or export. Switch providers and you lose everything. WidgetFlow keeps your data in a plain database on your own machine — yours to read, export, or move, no matter which AI model you point it at.

Hosted, black-box AI

AI ASSISTANT

AI that uses the context you allow

Choose which workspace context and tools each Persona may use. Point it at Ollama for a local model path, or deliberately connect a supported remote provider or Agent.

What should I focus on today?

Atlas · AI

Based on your canvas — you have 3 open goals, 2 tasks in progress, and a journal entry from yesterday about focus. I'd suggest starting with your "Deep Work" goal block.

Ask anything about your canvas…

TASKS WIDGET

Your tasks live on the canvas, not in a hosted tracker

Not locked in a separate app. Not hidden behind tabs. Drag the Tasks widget next to your AI assistant, your notes, your documents. We replaced our own hosted tracker with exactly this — it's how the team tracks its own work today.

DOCUMENTS WIDGET

Conversations become documents, not disposable chat logs

Every AI conversation is saved as a tagged, searchable document — not a throwaway chat log. Ask about a project once, and that context is right there next time, next to your notes.

SPATIAL CANVAS

Arrange your world however you think

Zoom in to focus. Zoom out for the big picture. Drag widgets wherever they make sense to you. Every canvas looks different because every person is different. This is MySpace energy meets infinite canvas.

It's already yours

No invite links, no hosted account. Your canvas and its data live in a local database only you control.

Built with intention

Small team. One vision.

WidgetFlow is built by a small team of developers. No venture capital. No team of 50. Just a focused group who believes your data should live on your machine, not ours.

We run WidgetFlow ourselves every day — it's how we replaced our own hosted task tracker and docs tool. Every feature, every pixel, every decision — one vision, executed with obsession.
