a 90-second tour
the fastest way to see what multicardz does. drop your work in as cards, then drag tags to build columns and rows, and watch everything reorganize into a live grid. no schemas, no formulas, no setup. it's a spreadsheet pivot you operate with your hands, for anything.
creating and tagging cards
start with nothing and build it up. make a few tags for status, priority, owner, whatever matters, then drop in cards and drag tags onto them. every card you tag is instantly ready to filter, group, and pivot.
pivot anything: drag tags to columns and rows
a flat list hides patterns. drag a tag into the columns and another into the rows, and your cards snap into a matrix you can read at a glance. change your mind? drag the tags somewhere else and the whole grid rebuilds instantly. pivot tables without the menus.
three ways to filter: show, narrow, hide
three drop zones, three ways to cut through the noise. drop a tag in show to see only those cards, stack tags in narrow to find an exact intersection, or drop one in hide to push it out of the way. filtering becomes a gesture, not a query.
one card, every intersection at once
a card that belongs in two places shows up in both, at the same time. no copies, no syncing, no duplicates to keep in step. built on real set theory, so a single card can appear in every row and column it actually touches.
edit a card in the side panel
click any card and its full story slides open on the side, roomy and calm, with space for a title, description, and checklists. the grid card stays read-only and clean, so editing never clutters the board.
group tags into higher-level axes
some tags belong together. drop one tag onto another to make a group, name it, and now several tags act as one. drag the group onto an axis and it organizes your whole board at a higher level.
drag a card to re-tag it
the grid is the controls. drag a card from one cell to another and it re-tags itself to match its new row and column. no menus, no editing. move things where they belong and the data follows.
import data from Gmail, Outlook, and Trello
your work is scattered across tools. multicardz pulls it together: import from Gmail, Outlook, and Trello, and everything that shares a tag finally sits side by side. one surface for data that used to live in silos.
import a Trello board: cards arrive tagged, ready to pivot
point multicardz at a trello board and every card comes across, already tagged by its list and labels. the moment it lands, you can filter, group, and pivot it like any other board. your boards, but with set theory underneath.
import Outlook mail: AI tags each email by people, companies, topics
turn your outlook inbox into something you can actually sort. pick your folders, and multicardz reads each message, pulling out the people, companies, and topics inside and turning them into tags. now your mail pivots like a spreadsheet.
import Gmail: entity extraction turns every message into tagged cards
every gmail message becomes a card, automatically tagged by what's inside it. entity extraction reads the body and surfaces the names, companies, and topics as tags, so you can finally organize your inbox by meaning, not just date and sender.
