Scrintal has all the features I need for my knowledge practice. Features that, together, no other app has. I can focus on a particular document, I can navigate seamlessly from document to document via links, or I can Zoom out and organise multiple documents (ideas, in my case) in a visual board.
I can see on a board the logical links I create between ideas or I can have temporary links that exist only within a board (something that Obsidian Canvas doesn't have). I can have elements on a visual board, but I can also create seamless connections between separate documents via links (something Miro doesn't have). I can easily have a board "holding the context" for all links I am creating within a document so I can look at how those links create connections between groups of documents (something Heptabase doesn't have). And on top of all that, I can collaborate with others.
Scrintal has become my tool of choice back in 2022 and I haven't looked back since.
I imagine Scrintal like a whiteboard for the brain!
My team tried Scrintal to build connected notes and ideas. I used it to organize thoughts for a product roadmap. The concept is smart, but it feels a bit slow at times. We liked the visual layout, but performance issues made it hard to commit long term.
