What is Ryzome
Ryzome is a visual workspace where your thoughts become connected insights. It’s designed to solve the fundamental limitations of linear AI interactions by providing a 2D canvas where ideas exist as interconnected nodes.
The Problem with Linear AI Chat Interfaces
Traditional AI interfaces like ChatGPT and Claude force you into a linear conversation model. You constantly:
- Switch contexts and lose your flow
- Re-type prompts and explanations
- Struggle to see connections between branching ideas
- Hit the limits of what chat can handle for complex thinking
Linear chat fails for complex thought. Ryzome makes AI context-aware through visual relationships.
The Ryzome Solution
Ryzome reimagines AI interaction through a spatial, visual interface. Instead of a chat thread, you work on an infinite canvas where:
Visual & Spatial Interface
Every idea becomes a node on a 2D canvas. This mirrors how your mind actually works - thoughts branch naturally, connections stay visible, and everything flows.
Connected Intelligence
When you connect nodes, the AI understands the full upstream context. It can synthesize information from multiple sources rather than just responding to isolated prompts.
Agentic Core
Every node is AI-enabled. Generate content, transform ideas, synthesize insights - all while maintaining the visual context of your thinking process.
Core Capabilities
Ryzome supports rich, multi-format content that adapts to what you need:
- Markdown-Enabled Nodes: Full markdown support with images, tables, code blocks, and formatting
- Content Drop-In: Import PDFs, YouTube videos, images, web pages, and text with automatic node creation
- Context Chains: Connect nodes to build context that AI understands and can work with
- Instant Knowledge Graphs: Watch your research evolve into living, interconnected insights
How It’s Different
Think “Obsidian Canvas meets AI, but reimagined” - Ryzome isn’t just a tool for organizing thoughts, it’s a collaborative thinking partner that understands the relationships between your ideas.
Unlike static note-taking apps or linear AI chats, Ryzome creates a second brain that actually thinks with you. The spatial interface combined with context-aware AI enables new forms of knowledge work that weren’t possible before.
Who It’s For
Ryzome is designed for knowledge workers who think visually:
- Researchers building complex arguments and literature reviews
- Writers developing interconnected narratives and ideas
- Consultants synthesizing insights from multiple sources
- Strategists mapping out complex problems and solutions
- AI power users seeking more sophisticated interaction models
