Nexus is a desktop command bar that turns any job-to-be-done—"plan a weekend in Kyoto," "track BTC/ETH," "export slides + email Alice"—into an instant, single-window workspace. It embeds the right web apps, pre-filters them, and remembers your layout so you stop chasing menus and juggling tabs.

Type. Generate. Use. It's that simple.

🎨 Instant Workspace Creation

Type any task and get a perfectly configured workspace in seconds

AI understands your task and embeds the right web apps automatically

All your tools in one place - no more tab juggling or window chaos

Apps open with the right context - search results, specific pages, relevant data

Nexus remembers how you like your tools arranged for each type of task

Direct access to what you need - no navigating through endless menus
