Stack in Piles

Entries are immutable, piles are flexible. Organize later or keep everything in default.

Export Anywhere

Download your Pile, inspect your data and import it in your existing Knowledge Base.

Why Piles?

Capturing information shouldn’t break your rhythm. Too many tools demand extra clicks — titles, tags, folders — right when all you wanted was to save a line of text or a quote. That interruption costs you focus.

Piles keeps the flow intact. You store what you see, instantly, without decisions. Especially in research and science, where a chain of thought matters more than perfect organization, this makes all the difference. The clip is safe, your mind keeps moving.

Workflow

Highlight text and add to Piles

Highlight any text you find online, right-click and choose “Add to Piles” or use your defined Keyboard Shortcut.

Your Piles collection

The text instantly appears in your personal pile, ready to browse or export later.

FAQ

Do I need a password?

No. You sign in with a one-time email link. No passwords to forget or reset.

Can I lose my clippings?

Not unless you choose to clear your pile. Entries are immutable and nothing is deleted without your action.

Is my data private?

Yes. Piles is private-first. Your notes aren’t shared, mined, or exposed.

Can I organize my entries?

No. That’s deliberate. Piles is an inbox, not a knowledge base. There are no tags, folders, or categories to slow you down. With a future premium account you’ll be able to create multiple piles, but organization beyond that isn’t the goal.

Can I export my data?

Right now you can export your pile as a plain text file. Richer formats (CSV, JSON, Notion, Obsidian, Logseq…) are planned.

Is there a premium version?

No (t yet). Today Piles is free and simple. In the future, premium accounts may allow multiple piles and advanced export options.
