"It nails the one, must-have thing I need."
"Having the big holistic view of the project is the most important thing for me. Opal let me structure a lot of information in a way that makes it convenient without the cognitive overload. And there was no learning curve."
"You made something that actually connects to my brain in a way that says 'I know where to put that thought.' My brain already knows where it is and I gravitate to it."
Every time you stop work to go hunt for something, you lose time. Lose enough time, you lose momentum.
McKinsey has reported that more than a quarter of a typical knowledge worker's time can go toward searching for information. Pega analyzed nearly 5 million hours of desktop activity and found workers switching between job-critical applications more than 1,100 times per day.
Those numbers point to the same pain: the work is buried under the surface.
Here's the part you already know but don't say out loud:
You're not disorganized. Your tools are.
You don't forget because you're sloppy. You forget because your work disappears the second you close the tab.
Drag stuff where it makes sense to you. Then your brain just knows where everything is.
Because You Remember Where Things Are, Not Just What They're Called
You remember the note was near the client brief. You remember the invoice was below the proposal. You remember the rough idea was beside the screenshot. That is spatial memory, and research on object-location memory keeps finding the same basic truth: remembering where things are located is central to how people navigate and act in the world.
A note, doc, link, file...whatever. No folder to pick. One-click to create or drag and drop onto your desk.
Working on a writing project? Drag every note, draft, reference, and source into one spot on the desk. Now your brain knows: writing stuff lives over here. Same way you remember where your coffee cup is on your desk.
Click one, two, five. See your estimate, checklist, and client's notes all open at once, in one tab. No more "wait, which window was that in?"
One look across your desk and it all comes back.
Your eyes do the remembering. You stop searching.
Drop in a live doc or sheet next to relevant work and edit them right inside Opal.
Share a note, doc, or binder full of stuff with others. Edit together in real-time.
Drag them onto your desk to keep what's important in context and read PDFs directly in Opal.
Make Opal the human-in-the-loop surface for what your AI Agent does with the Opal API and agent skill.
For 20 years I've built, shipped, and fixed software and digital systems for companies that can't afford for things to break, including internal tools used by Microsoft teams and B2B platforms where failure costs real money.
So when I built Opal, I didn't build a "startup." What do I mean?
That means it has to last and it has to protect the people who trust it.
If you're running a business, your attention is already taxed. You need a workspace that keeps what matters in view and won't disappear when trends shift.
That's the promise. That's why Opal exists.
No. Most people start by adding their “active jobs,” “hot clients,” or “current initiatives.” It's also easy to add Google Docs & Sheets so you can organize them spatially and edit them from Opal.
You'll feel the difference in under an hour when you stop chasing stuff.
Yes. You can share individual items and binders full of items with specific people and control what they can do (view, edit, etc.).
Yes. You can turn a document into a public, read-only page and send them the link.
No login required.
You keep access to your data in read-only mode. You're not locked out of your own work.
You can request full purge if you want it gone.
There's a free tier to start using it.
Paid plans unlock more items, more workspaces, more features, and more storage so you can scale when you're ready.
