Pin what you use most, search everything, and keep your place. One purchase, no subscription, no account. Everything stays on your device.
👋 I’m the developer of Tansei. It launched here for Mac in July, and now it works on Windows too.
What working in 2026 actually feels like
🤖 AI hands you more than you can file: images, drafts, whole documents
🗂️ Folders are for things you’re finished with, and you’re never finished
🪟 Your “workspace” is really 14 tabs, a messy desktop, and a Notepad you never close
🔀 The whole day is moving between things, and you’re the one carrying all of it
So I built Tansei, a shelf for the stuff in motion.
📥 Drop anything on it: files, images, text, links, all in one place
👀 It stays in view beside your work, so there’s nothing to search or recall
📌 Pin the things you keep reaching for
⌨️ Tuck the whole shelf away when you want the space back
🧹 Clear it when you’re done
Tansei just keeps all of it in front of me, because I can see it.
What’s the one thing you keep losing between apps? I’d love to hear it.
