[ about ]

Bentowise helps researchers, creators, educators, and independent professionals organize scattered materials into focused visual workspaces.

Instead of keeping notes, screenshots, documents, and source links in separate places, you can arrange them as modular cards on a flexible bento-style grid. Each board gives you a clear view of your research, the relationships between materials, and the ideas you want to revisit.

Create boards for investment research, lesson planning, content projects, client work, or personal collections. Use templates to get started, review selected cards in a presentation-style view, and export boards as standalone HTML or JSON files.

Bentowise is local-first and works offline. Your board data stays in your own Vault folder, and you can choose your preferred file-based sync service. It is available for Windows and macOS, with a free version and a one-time Pro license.
