About Opal
Opal is a spatial knowledge-management workspace designed to help users organize notes, clients, tasks, SOPs, and links on a draggable canvas for quick recall and visibility. By placing work in a visual space where the brain naturally expects it, Opal reduces the time lost to searching and keeps critical information in view. The tool already offers an API for AI agents and integrates with AI-driven services like AI-transcribed notes via CRUSH. It is also developing one-click AI agent creation for platforms such as Claude, Perplexity, OpenClaw, and Opal Recall SKILL, enabling users to automate summaries, recall, and routine work through drag-and-drop or proximity-based contextual content. Opal is ideal for individuals or teams seeking a low-friction hub that merges spatial organization with AI-powered automation and contextual assistants. The platform aims to eliminate information loss and accelerate decision-making by keeping everything organized and accessible in one visual workspace.
