Works on first run. Gets sharper as you write.

The more you use your vault, the more Enzyme sees in it.

How the engine reads your vault →

Early reactions

"Enzyme can surface connections I'd only make if I had instant recall... freeing me to use that energy to create and write... I think this is just the beginning."
life coach (NYC)
"Enzyme helps me build richer, more cohesive themes and think more deeply."
HCI researcher, ex-Spotify (Zurich)
"I have a workflow that I love with Readwise, Snipd, and Obsidian. Enzyme beats inertia by quickly drawing me deeper into the meaning of what I'm doing."
songwriter and pastor (NYC)

Run it once. After that, when you're wondering, Claude reaches for what you've already captured.
