Web App

The web dashboard at neuralrepo.com is NeuralRepo’s primary interface. It provides the full feature set — idea creation, kanban workflow, search, mind map visualization, and settings management.

The left sidebar is the dashboard’s spine: a + Capture button at the top, then the six views, with Settings at the bottom.

ViewWhat it is
IdeasThe filterable list of everything you have captured
BoardThe kanban board — one column per status, drag to move
Mind MapYour idea graph as an interactive force-directed map
AgentThe AI agent: a chat panel beside an artifact canvas (Pro)
DuplicatesPending duplicate detections to merge or dismiss (Pro)
ReviewThe resurfacing queue — quiet ideas, new connections, duplicates

Each view has its own URL (/app, /board, /map, /agent, /duplicates, /review), so you can bookmark or link to one directly.

From the Ideas list you can:

  • Filter by status — narrow to captured, exploring, building, shipped, or shelved
  • Filter by tags — click any tag in the sidebar; click more to narrow further
  • Filter by source — see ideas from a specific capture channel
  • Search — the sidebar search box runs keyword or semantic search
  • Select and act in bulk — tick several ideas and use the bulk toolbar
  1. Click + Capture at the top of the sidebar (it is on every view).

  2. Fill in the idea details:

    FieldRequiredDescription
    TitleYesA concise name for the idea
    NotesNoLonger description — supports full Markdown
    StatusNocaptured (default), exploring, or building
    TagsNoType a name and press Enter, or click one of your existing tags
  3. Click Capture.

The capture form only offers the first three statuses — an idea you are capturing has not shipped or been shelved yet. Set either from the idea’s detail panel or the board afterwards.

If you leave the tag field empty, NeuralRepo tags the idea for you a few seconds later. See Tags.

Duplicates Surface After the Save, Not Before

Section titled “Duplicates Surface After the Save, Not Before”

Duplicate detection is asynchronous — the idea is saved first, then embedded and compared in the background. There is no warning banner in the capture form, and nothing blocks a save.

A few seconds later, any pair above your dedup threshold appears in the Duplicates view (a Pro feature) and in the duplicates section of Review, where you merge or dismiss it. On the free plan the detections are still recorded — they are simply not displayed, and they are all there waiting if you upgrade later. See Duplicate Detection.

Tick the checkbox on any idea in the list and a bulk toolbar appears. With a selection you can:

  • Move every selected idea to a status
  • Add or remove a tag across the selection
  • Archive the selection (after a confirmation)

Bulk edits are applied per idea, not as a transaction — the API takes up to 50 ideas per request (the web app splits larger selections into batches), and reports success or failure for each one. A bad ID fails alone; the rest still change.

Open the Board view from the sidebar. The kanban board displays ideas as cards in columns:

ColumnStatus
CapturedNew, unevaluated ideas
ExploringIdeas under research or consideration
BuildingIdeas actively being implemented
ShippedCompleted and delivered ideas
ShelvedParked ideas — not active, not deleted

Drag and drop cards between columns to change their status. This is the fastest way to move ideas through your workflow.

The sidebar search box supports two modes, and both are available on every plan:

Vector-powered search that finds ideas by meaning. A search for “daily routine app” will match ideas titled “habit tracker” or “morning checklist tool” even if the exact words do not appear.

app for tracking daily routines

The free plan includes 10 semantic searches a month. After that, searches return keyword results with a notice above them until the month rolls over.

Results are ranked by relevance and can be further narrowed by status, tags, and source. The result header tells you which mode answered — semantic, or keyword with the matching style in brackets. See Search for thresholds and the API.

The Mind Map view renders your idea graph as an interactive network visualization. Each idea is a node, and relations are edges connecting them. Free accounts get it view-only — pan, zoom, filter, and open ideas; editing the graph requires Pro.

  • Zoom and pan to navigate the graph
  • Click a node to open the idea detail view
  • Color coding reflects idea status
  • Edge labels show the relation type (related, blocks, inspires, etc.)

The mind map is especially useful for spotting clusters of related ideas, identifying blocking dependencies, and understanding how your ideas connect across projects.

Settings sits at the bottom of the sidebar. From here you can:

  • Generate API keys for the CLI, Shortcuts, and the REST API (Pro)
  • Manage billing — upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your plan
  • Configure BYOK AI — add your own Anthropic, OpenAI, or OpenRouter key (Pro)
  • Set up integrations — the Claude MCP connector, the CLI, and the Siri shortcut
  • Tune notifications — the weekly digest, stale-idea nudges, and the staleness threshold
  • Export data — download every idea as JSON, CSV, or a Markdown archive
  • Manage account — display name, theme, and connected sign-in providers
