Free private beta · iPhone

You forget the ideas that actually mattered.

Carve turns the ideas that hit you into principles, in your own words, and brings them back the moment you actually need them.

Free on iPhone. Carve is in testing, so it installs through TestFlight, Apple's official app for trying new apps before they launch.

1

Get TestFlight (skip if you already have it)

Get TestFlight from the App Store

No code needed. If TestFlight asks you to "Redeem" a code, ignore it, close it and come back to this page.

Imagine how you'd feel as the person you most want to become — then feel that way now.

Why I built this

I almost got a tattoo of a quote — "everything exists now" — so I'd stop forgetting it. That's when it hit me: the problem was never that I wasn't learning enough. It was that nothing I learned ever came back when I needed it. So I built Carve instead.

How it works

1

Capture

Save the ideas, quotes, and realisations that actually land for you, the moment they land.

2

Distill

Turn them into principles, in your own words. Never generic, never someone else's summary.

3

Resurface

Get them back on a schedule you set, or the moment you describe what you're actually dealing with.
