Ivy — Plan. Do. Reflect. Fight overwhelm with clarity. Ivy is an app with a fresh approach to getting things done, inspired by a century-old method. Ready to lock in?

From glass materialize transitions to bright HDR colors, this update makes use of all the latest iOS 26 goodies. Grab the TestFlight invite at semantical.com :)

Ivy has been updated with liquid glass. Check it out on TestFlight!

- if a location is found, a map widget shows up
- the add button morphs into the composer, then the composer into the list
- background colors are extracted from the open graph image, then adjusted in the LCh color space to boost chroma and lightness values perceptually

it began as a lightweight note taking app
- local dense and sparse vector search is combined using reciprocal rank fusion, giving you precise + semantically similar matches
- when viewing a note, semantically similar notes are surfaced (it's so fun to explore your notes that way)

built this app over the holidays
- extracts useful info from websites and pdfs
- saves items in local vector store for semantic search
- supports writing notes using markdown

I was surprised to see how smooth the transition between these two layouts turned out. Even the text is animated.

Reminders in @semanticalhq's Today app can be in three states: planning, doing, and archived.
📝 In planning mode, we make the chevrons bounce to hint at the reorder gesture.
✅ In doing mode, reminders animate continuously between the checkbox and checkmark.

The iPhone and camera move in opposite directions. Lights are set up so that the shape of the device is defined by rim light.

For our beta landing page, we needed something quick and easy. Using @framer.com was the obvious choice, alongside animating a simple mockup in Blender.
