Product highlight

The things you saved, in your sidebar

The internet is amazing. Information is everywhere: Twitter threads, Product Hunt products, Google and Notion docs.

Our brains are failing. Information gets harder to keep track of the more it piles up – and the older you get.

Fabric is one of the newest products trying to improve the process of information recall, and it just launched a new browser extension.

Your memory in your sidebar. Fabric describes its latest launch as your "your second brain in your browser.” Let’s say you start a Google search for “semantic search.” A Fabric sidebar pops up to deliver a tweet you saved, a note, and PDF all on the same topic.

The Chrome extension can work side-by-side with Fabric’s app, which works as a kind of smart file folder, using AI smart labeling so you can easily resurface what you saved later.

The future is global search. If searching your brain feels vaguely familiar, well, maybe you need Fabric. We'll also remind you of Rewind, a 2022 Golden Kitty Award Winner that makes your entire Mac computer and iPhone searchable. But if you’re not an Apple user, Fabric is worth taking a look at.

We’ve also seen similar concepts as product features, like searching content within Air.

AI-powered recall. Fabric uses AI to help you rediscover content. Founder @johnny_makes notes:

“At Fabric, we've built a universal storage technology, built natively on transformer models, so it works just like your mind does: through meaning and association, not folders and hierarchies.”

That means that the content Fabric serves up isn’t based on where you were when you saved it, as one commenter asked. “[I]t's based on the content itself, so we're resurfacing things based on meaning (the idea is to work like your brain does),” writes Johnny.
