What it does
Models raced ahead but the interface is stuck at the chatbot — a single thread that forgets your context and locks you to one lab. Clear Cortex is an AI workspace: your files, notes, data and AI chats live together on one connected canvas. Drop in PDFs, spreadsheets, images and audio — everything you connect is what the AI knows, answers cited to the exact page. The best model for each task, on one bill. Share the workspace, not a transcript. The AI comes to your work — not the other way around.
Clear Cortex is an AI workspace: your files, notes, data and AI chats live together, connected, in a workspace you own. The AI comes to your work — not the other way around.
Stop re-explaining yourself every time you open a new AI chat. Your work lives in a workspace you own. Pick a workflow, give it your inputs, press run — the steps appear on a canvas as they happen: transcribe the meeting, draft the brief, chart the numbers. The result is yours to keep. Reasoning, images, audio, code — the best model for each job, side by side on one canvas. Swap anytime, wire your own chains, ask questions across your own documents. The work stays where it is. What the AI was given and what it made are things on the canvas, not lines lost in a chat history. Come back tomorrow — it still shows its work. Every workflow run shows its work the same way.

Portals2025 · useportals.dev · ▲128I'm building a workspace for doing focus work while also managing constant multi-tasking and context-switching that's required in a lot of roles. Currently this is done by using a notes system where we can split-screen AI chat, an object-based data table system for tracking entities, as well as viewing other documents. We can define agents directly from documents by giving instructions in plain language and then defining the trigger conditions. This helps automate workflows directly in the place where we're reading and writing content. I'm continuing to experiment with instructions and…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

OpenSEO▲928Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
