A closer look at Opal
Opal, at opalrecall.com, is a spatial note-taking app built around one big visual desk: lay out notes, pages and items on an endless grid, open many at once, drag blocks between items in a single tab, and search then pan to anything, instead of digging through folders. Plans are per seat with 1, 3 or 7 workspaces, container sharing, and a Workshop tier that adds API access for AI agents.
