Easy retrieval

Remember anything.

An executive assistant with all of your context, who finds time you didn’t know you had.

There is about one for every 24 managers in America, and even the great ones go home. They never see the idea you had at 11pm. Kept sees all of it.

I

Your day, organized.

Kept reads your goals, your calendar and what is still open, then hands you the one thing that fits the time you have.

II

Fast search of all your productive context.

Kept tags every note and task as it lands. Ask in your own words, three weeks later.

III

Not your second brain. It’s your agent’s second brain.

Claude, ChatGPT, your own agents · one memory they all read, and write back to.

One place for all of it

An app experience that builds itself around your term.

Lectures, problem sets, the reading, practice, the job search, and sleep you keep promising yourself · Kept helps you cut through the noise and stay on track.

Today, already sorted before you open it

The line you are holding yourself to, the few things that move it, and the habits you actually keep. One morning glance and the day is decided.

Goals

The goal is an A. The work is Tuesday at four.

Write the goal once. Link the problem sets, the lab reports, and the reading to it, and it stops being a sentence you re-read. Kept keeps one next move on every goal, drawn from the work you actually put there, and counts what you finish against it.

  • Get an A in Organic Chemistry

    NextProblem set 4, the two mechanisms

  • Finish the thesis draft by April

    NextOutline chapter 2 from the reading notes

  • Read 30 pages a day

    NextDurkheim, pages 88 to 118

  • Graduate without the 3am

    NextMove Friday's lab report to Wednesday

Nothing counts toward a goal until you link it. Kept will not decide that a lecture was progress.

How it works

Under the calm surface.

Every capture finds its area on its own, which is why finding a lecture note in March feels like remembering it, not searching for it.

Why capture is the wedge

The gap was never discipline.

capture starts filing itselfwhat you meant to dowhat got done
The gap between intention and action isn’t a character flaw · it’s friction. Remove the filing, and the lines meet. The science →
A light app over a real engine

Retrieval powers, in your pocket.

Kept stays small and quick on the phone. The knowledge engine behind it does the remembering.

How one recall is scored

55%MeaningHow close your question is to the block, compared as vectors. This is why the words you used months ago do not have to match the words you use today.
15%WordsLiteral keyword overlap, capped, so one lucky word can never outrank a block that actually answers you.
15%RecencyValue is halved at 45 days, then fades slowly from there. Last month still counts. Last year still shows up when nothing newer is closer.
15%WeightHow much that line mattered inside the note it came from. A decision outranks a stray aside.

One recall, worked

“what did we decide about the backend?”

Going with Postgres. Mongo’s flexibility is not worth the migration cost at our size, and we already know the ops story.

Architecture sync · Jun 12 · block 4 of 11

meaning 0.79 · words 1.00 (0.25, capped) · recency 0.52 (42 days) · weight 0.90 → 0.80

That is the sentence you wrote, word for word, with a pointer back to where it lives. Kept returns your block, never a paraphrase of your own thinking.

A personal knowledge graph

  • person
  • project
  • goal
  • topic
  • decision
  • date
  • place
  • org

Every person, project and decision you mention becomes part of it, so retrieval means something instead of matching words. It is the same graph your agents read over MCP, so what you keep, they can use too.

Every extracted item is visible in the app, and every one of them is yours to edit or dismiss.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What do I actually get for a school email?

A year of Kept Premium, held against that address. Kept has no paid tier today · everything in the app is free for everyone right now. When Kept Pro launches, your twelve months start then, not the day you claim it.

Do I have to verify anything?

No. Type the address your school gave you and it is held. The first time you sign in to Kept with that same address · through the ordinary emailed code · the year follows you. There is no separate activation step.

My school is not a .edu. Does it still work?

Yes, if your address is an academic one. Kept accepts .edu along with the international academic forms such as ac.uk, edu.au, and ac.nz.

Is this another AI chatbot?

No. There's no chat window to babysit. The intelligence works in the background · filing your captures, prepping your day · then gets out of the way. You'll mostly notice it as things simply being where they belong. And your pick always wins.

What does it replace?

A task manager, a calendar app, a notes app, a habit tracker, a focus timer, and a food log. One calm app, not six.

Is my data private?

Private by default. Capture works on-device first; storing capture text in the cloud is off until you turn it on. Your words stay yours.

Where can I get Kept?

Kept is available for iPhone on the App Store and as one universal Mac download for Apple silicon and Intel. The Mac app requires macOS 26.0 or later.
