Hi, I'm Michael from Konigi. I built Unicron to help me keep up with my work. It turns meeting transcripts into notes with clear next steps. You can schedule a daily summary to see what's due and what still needs to be done. Your notes are saved as Markdown files, plain text you can open in any text editor.

You'll need Claude Code and a paid Claude plan. The app helps you set up Claude Code when you first open it. Unicron stores your notes in a vault, a folder on your Mac. You can use that same folder with Obsidian or keep it in Dropbox or iCloud Drive to access your notes on other devices.

  • Today a daily summary
  • Tasks all your open tasks
  • Library read and edit notes
  • Graph a map of your notes
Daily brief

See what needs your attention

Open Today to see a daily summary based on your notes. It shows your priorities, unfinished work, and upcoming deadlines, so you can plan your day without reading through every note.

Library

Read and edit your notes

The Library holds your project and meeting notes, along with notes about people, decisions, and your daily work. Edit them in Unicron, and Claude takes care of the Markdown formatting. You can also open the same files in Obsidian or another text editor.

Projects

Keep project notes together

A project brings related meetings, tasks, and notes together. You can follow the work over time without searching through separate notes. Group projects into areas to organize different parts of your work or life.

Chat

Ask Claude about your notes

Use Chat to ask questions about your notes or ask Claude to edit them. It can also sort your inbox or create a project. Changes appear in review cards in the conversation, and you can press ⌘Z to undo them.

Tasks

See all your unfinished tasks

Unicron gathers unfinished tasks from your notes into one list. See your own tasks, work you are waiting on from others, and tasks grouped by area. You can track them without copying them into a separate to-do app.

Graph

See how your notes connect

The graph shows your notes as a map, with lines between linked notes. Follow those links to explore related notes and find older ones you may have forgotten.

Capture

Add notes as you work

Press ⌘N to add a note, task, or project. Paste a meeting transcript and Claude turns it into an organized note. You can also send thoughts to your inbox from your phone or with a keyboard shortcut, then have Unicron sort them later.

Your notes are plain text files.

Your notes are saved as Markdown files on your Mac. You can edit them in Unicron, Obsidian, or any text editor, and track changes with Git. If you stop using Unicron, you can keep using your notes.

Common questions

  • What is Unicron?

    Unicron is a Mac app that uses Claude to organize your notes and tasks. It writes a daily summary of your priorities, turns meeting transcripts into notes, and links related notes. Your notes are saved as plain text Markdown files.

  • What do I need to run it?

    You need a Mac with an M-series chip, Claude Code, and a Claude Pro or Max plan. Unicron walks you through installing Claude Code with a command you paste into Terminal.

  • Do I really need a paid Claude plan?

    Yes. The AI features use your Claude account and require a Pro or Max plan. Unicron does not charge a separate subscription.

  • How much does Unicron cost?

    Unicron is free. If you find it useful, you can choose to pay any amount through Lemon Squeezy.

  • Does it run on Windows or Intel Macs?

    No. Unicron only runs on Macs with an Apple Silicon M-series chip.

  • Does it work with Obsidian?

    Yes. Unicron can read and edit the same folder of Markdown files you use in Obsidian. You can keep using those files in either app or any text editor.

  • Where are my notes stored?

    Your notes are saved as Markdown files in a folder on your Mac, called a vault. Put that folder in Dropbox or iCloud Drive to access the files on other devices.

  • Do skills update with the app?

    Yes. Skills are instructions Claude follows to do jobs like writing your daily summary. When you open your notes after an app update, Unicron adds new skills and updates the skills and note templates you have not edited. It leaves your profile and CLAUDE.md instructions file alone.

  • What if I've customized a skill?

    Unicron leaves skills you have edited alone. It compares each file with the versions included in the app to check for changes. Your edited skills stop receiving automatic updates.

  • What if an update changes a skill in a way I don't like?

    Before updating a skill or template, Unicron saves one previous copy in .claude/.kit-backup/ inside your notes folder. You can copy that backup over the updated file to restore it.

  • When can Claude change my notes?

    Claude can edit notes when you run a skill, schedule one, or ask for changes in Chat. Changes appear in review cards, and you can press ⌘Z to undo them. You can also mark a note or section as protected so skills leave it alone.

  • Do I have to use the terminal?

    You use Terminal once to install Claude Code. Unicron gives you the command. After setup, you can use the AI features from inside the app. If you prefer Terminal, you can also run commands such as /focus and /triage from your notes folder.

  • Is my data private?

    Your notes are stored on your Mac. When you use an AI feature, note content is sent to Anthropic through Claude Code using your account. Unicron has no server that collects your notes, and I never see them. Read the Privacy Policy for details.
