About Decks
What is Decks?
Decks is a unified productivity workspace that combines 13 built-in tools for note-taking, knowledge organization, task management, and learning. Unlike apps that require multiple integrations, Decks provides everything you need in one place — rich text notes, structured tables, kanban boards, flashcards, and more — with no plugins or setup required.
Who is it for?
Decks is designed for students, researchers, self-learners, and professionals who want to capture and organize knowledge efficiently. It works best for individuals who prefer a single tool over fragmented app stacks. Decks is not for teams needing real-time collaboration or enterprise-grade access controls.
Key use cases
Use Decks to take rich notes with LaTeX math and cloze deletions, build a linked knowledge base with cross-document references, manage tasks with a kanban board, and study with spaced repetition flashcards. The Vim mode makes it ideal for power users who prefer keyboard-driven workflows.
Key features
- Rich Text Editor — Full-featured notes with headings, lists, tables, LaTeX math, and auto-save every 2 seconds.
- Vim Mode — Optional Vim keybindings with Normal, Insert, Visual, and Visual Line modes.
- Document Linking — Link documents inline with [[ ]] and preview content on click.
- Tables & Databases — 15+ column types with inline editing, aggregations, and search.
- Kanban Task Board — Drag-and-drop task management with lanes, priorities, due dates, and filters.
- Connected Knowledge — Build a web of linked notes across your deck, visible in Note Wall masonry view.
- Placeholder Documents — Create links to documents that don’t exist yet; get notified when linked content is removed.
