What Bridge is
Bridge is a mobile-first notes-and-thinking workspace that turns the raw ideas you capture into a connected, searchable graph — and eventually into shippable plans. Three things make Bridge different from a notes app or a chat-with-LLM tool.
The graph forms itself
As notes accumulate, Bridge automatically groups semantically-related ones into constellations — themed clusters with AI-generated names. You don't fold, tag, or organize manually. The connections surface on their own, driven by a semantic pass that runs over every note you capture. Two notes about the same API problem written a week apart will appear connected in the graph before you consciously notice the link.
Each constellation gets a generated name that reflects the theme of the notes inside it. When the cluster is dense enough, Bridge surfaces it as a candidate project in the Inbox.
Notes can become plans
When a constellation crosses a critical mass of relevance, you can tap Start a venture. Bridge generates a full plan package — plan, spec, and AGENTS.md overlay — from the notes inside that constellation. The plan is markdown you can read, share, edit, and download. The generated files include a database schema, an API contract, a component tree, a data-flow diagram, constraints and acceptance criteria, a step-by-step implementation plan, and an AGENTS.md overlay that gives any coding agent instant project context.
Chat works against your structured workspace, not raw history
Conversations can be scoped to specific notes, a whole constellation, or a generated plan. The AI answers using only the references you pick, so you stay in control of context. This is different from a general-purpose chat tool, where the AI can only work from what you paste into the current message. In Bridge, the notes and plans you've already built up are always available to bring into scope.
5 free runs, then bring your own AI
Every account — including Free — gets 5 AI runs a month on Bridge. A run reads one note and decides whether it's an idea worth developing or a reference to keep; if it's an idea, it also writes the note's expansion — a short paragraph drawing out what you meant, which is what makes the note searchable, connectable to related notes, and ready to become a plan. Reference notes use a run too, without getting an expansion. You don't need an API key, they cost you nothing, and they reset on the 1st of each month.
Past those 5, Bridge is BYOAPI — you provide your own Anthropic, Gemini, or OpenAI API key for unlimited classification and expansion. Your subscription is an access fee for the workspace, not an AI markup: you pay your AI provider directly for inference, with no middleman markup baked into Bridge's price.
Two things worth knowing:
- A key is honored on a paid plan. On the Free tier you stay at 5 runs a month whether or not you've added a key — adding one unlocks unlimited AI once you're on Discover or above.
- Constellations still need Discover. The free runs cover classification and expansion; the semantic clustering that forms constellations is a Discover-tier feature.
