Liminary

Liminary is your AI-native knowledge management and recall tool, engineered to turn information overload into actionable insight. It solves the core challenge of staying in flow by ensuring your saved knowledge proactively surfaces at the precise moment you need it. This tool is essential for researchers, consultants, investors, and insights-centric professionals who rely on synthesizing high volumes of complex information absorbed across diverse sources.

Key Features

Liminary moves beyond passive storage; it is an agentic tool that actively works alongside you to maximize the value of your accumulated knowledge.

🧠 Proactive Recall, Contextually Aware

Liminary eliminates manual searching by proactively identifying relevance based on your current context and the work you are doing. Unlike traditional research tools that require keyword input, Liminary acts like a research assistant who knows your entire knowledge base, automatically surfacing crucial insights while you work in platforms like Google Docs or Notion.

🌐 Universal Capture and Annotation

Effortlessly save information in virtually any format—from web pages, PDFs, and PowerPoint slides to LLM chat threads and YouTube videos—with a single click. You can highlight specific text, images, or charts, and annotate content directly as you read, ensuring that only the most critical information is stored in your library.

🔗 Active Knowledge Graph Generation

The AI automatically maps all your saved notes, research sources, files, and ideas into a semantic knowledge graph. This structure weaves together connections at a conceptual level, making related ideas visible, helping you piece together disparate findings, and proactively identifying potential gaps in your research coverage.

✅ Verified Insight Generation and Control

Leverage the dedicated "Ask" tab to chat directly with your knowledge repository to generate summaries, list key questions, or extract specific data points. Liminary uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to ensure accuracy and prevent hallucinations, providing immediate citations so you can verify every claim and maintain high standards of trust and accuracy. You retain control over the AI involvement level, from simple snippet finding to generating first drafts.

Use Cases

Liminary integrates seamlessly into high-stakes workflows, ensuring you never lose access to crucial information or miss a critical connection.

1. Accelerated Due Diligence and Synthesis

As an investor or consultant, you absorb hundreds of reports, memos, and market analyses. Liminary enables you to quickly spot critical patterns and connections across these disparate documents without manually cross-referencing files. When reviewing a new investment area, Liminary instantly surfaces notes on platform economics, case studies, or contrarian articles saved months ago when you mention concepts like "network effects."

2. Contextual Writing and Report Drafting

When drafting a complex report or strategy document, Liminary surfaces relevant materials, notes, and highlights precisely when you need them. For example, if you are writing about supply chains and reach a tariffs section, Liminary automatically surfaces materials, notes, and highlights about import/export tariffs, ensuring comprehensive coverage and flow without breaking your concentration to search.

3. Deep Academic and Student Research

For graduate students and researchers, Liminary helps connect concepts across diverse sources, courses, and time periods. By building a comprehensive knowledge graph of your lecture notes, problem sets, and legitimate research sources, it surfaces connections between courses (e.g., linking last semester's thermodynamics concepts to current quantum mechanics coursework), maintaining proper citations, and fostering deeper, interconnected understanding.

Unique Advantages

Liminary is an agentic knowledge tool designed specifically for synthesis, offering distinct advantages over traditional search and passive note-taking apps.

Proactive Recall vs. Passive Search

Traditional tools require you to know exactly what you’re looking for and use the right keywords. Liminary is different: it proactively identifies relevance based on the semantic context of your current work. It surfaces insights you didn't know to search for, ensuring you leverage the full breadth of your knowledge base without interruption.

Designed for Synthesis, Not Just Storage

Liminary is agentic; it doesn’t just store your knowledge—it actively works with you. By automatically mapping connections between disparate files and ideas, it facilitates the complex process of synthesizing findings for clients or personal insight generation, helping you see patterns and identify missing perspectives. Users describe it as feeling like "the whole tool" that brings everything together seamlessly.

Accuracy and Trust Built-In

In research and consulting, accuracy is paramount. Liminary’s architecture, which includes RAG and mandatory source citations for every AI-generated connection or summary, allows users to easily verify any claim. Furthermore, users control the scope of the AI responses, choosing whether answers come from a single file, a specific collection, or their full library.

Conclusion

Liminary moves beyond simple knowledge storage to become an active partner in your research and synthesis workflow. By intelligently connecting and proactively surfacing your saved insights, it ensures you remain in flow and maximize the value of every piece of information you absorb.
