Brain Dump Inbox
A downloadable tool
catch the thought. keep moving.
You're in the middle of something when it hits. An idea. A task. Something you absolutely cannot lose and will absolutely forget in four minutes if you don't do something about it.
You reach sideways.
Dump it. Tag it. Get back to what you were doing. The whole thing takes maybe ten seconds and your train of thought is still mostly intact.
Brain Dump Inbox lives in your browser sidebar, always within reach, never in the way. CRT terminal aesthetic, four phosphor themes, typewriter click sounds, and a personality feed that reacts to everything you do with dry commentary you didn't ask for but will probably appreciate.
Everything stays local. Your pile exports as Markdown anytime. Nothing leaves your browser, ever.
The keeper. Catches what's worth keeping.
A note on how this was built:
This extension was developed with AI-assisted coding. I work with AI tools as a development partner: reviewing the code myself, making changes, learning from the process, and making intentional decisions throughout. It's important to me to be transparent about this because that's part of what Dial Up Dispatch, and by extension, Dispatch Direct stands for.
You, and your tools, deserve honesty. Full Stop.
