Omphalis turns the things you save (articles, PDFs, podcasts, YouTube videos) into something you actually understand. Drop one in and it comes back as a clean, calm page: clutter gone, the structure laid out beside it, and the hard terms explained right where you meet them, so you keep reading instead of leaving to search.
Read it, or listen in a natural voice with your place kept. Mark what matters and add your own notes; your marks become the reasons to come back. And as your library grows, Omphalis finds the people, places and ideas your pieces share, connecting what you saved last year to what you are reading today.
The free plan stays free. Founding members get 90 days of full Premium, no card.
Features
- Clean reading view for articles, PDFs, EPUBs, Word docs, podcasts, and YouTube: clutter removed, columns untangled, transcripts made readable
- The structure of every piece laid out: sections, key moments and dense stretches visible before you read
- Hard terms and unfamiliar references explained in the margin, right where they appear
- Listen to anything in a natural voice, with your place kept between reading and listening
- Marks and notes that keep the exact passage and a path back to it
- Connections across your library: what one piece supports, extends or contradicts
- Courses built from openly licensed sources, readable on every plan
- Chrome and Firefox extensions to save and read from any page
- Works inside ChatGPT in one click, or from any client through MCP
- Full-text search and data export on every plan, always

- Read a three-hour podcast or interview as a transcript, then listen to the rest on a walk
- Untangle a two-column PDF or a long report into one readable page
- Study from your own sources and return to the exact passages that mattered
- Ask questions across everything you have saved, with citations back to the source

I'm Stanly, building Omphalis. It started with my own backlog. I kept saving articles, papers, and podcasts I genuinely wanted to understand, and the pile only grew. Every tool I tried solved the saving part; none helped with the actual reading. Summaries made it worse: I got the gist and lost the substance. So Omphalis takes the opposite bet. It cleans up whatever you drop in (articles, PDFs, podcasts, YouTube), lays out how the piece is built, and explains the hard parts right where they appear, so you stay with the source instead of skimming around it. You can listen with your place kept, mark what matters, and as your library grows it starts connecting pieces to each other. It is bootstrapped, early, and growing in the open. Founding members get 90 days of full Premium, no card needed. I read and answer everything here, so tell me what is confusing or missing, and I will usually have it fixed the same week.
