What is Curio?~Curio can do everything you've been doing in a notebook, whiteboard, or sketchbook plus so much more. Its intuitive freeform interface helps you work smarter and think more creatively. The digerati call it visual thinking. We call it a more natural way to get things done.

Everything You Need~With Curio you have all the tools you need to collect and show your data with style. No other application provides you with an environment as rich and as intuitive as Curio. It's a perfect blend of productivity and creativity.

Brainstorming Nirvana~Within a single idea space, you can have any number of mind maps, tables, and lists, sitting alongside your other freeform images, notes, and documents. Curio provides extensive customizable style support, so you can quickly personalize the look and feel of your work.

Freeform Environment~The beauty of Curio is that it doesn't lock you into any particular method of organization. Think about how you normally organize your notebook, whiteboard, or sketchbook and you can replicate that environment within Curio using our freeform idea spaces.

Hello Right Brain~Curio's integrated pressure-senstive pens and brushes allow you to quickly sketch out an idea when a keyboard just won't do.

Task Master~Track your to-do tasks easily using color-coded jewels in the idea space, Project Center, and Status shelf, plus automatic syncing with iCal. Curio can even automatically determine dates, completion percentages, and resources based on their hierarchical ordering.

Getting Started~To help you get started, select one of the bundled customizable dossier templates, including Creative Brief, Product Plan, and Research Project, and find all the questions you need to ask your client and yourself before diving into a project.

Research Buddy~Searching for inspiration? With Sleuth, Curio gives you a tireless Internet research assistant. Type in a single search phrase and Sleuth will seek out fonts, photos, songs, definitions, rhymes, and translations. Built-in parental controls can be activated to restrict the results.

Friendly with Others~Export your idea spaces as PDF, TIFF, JPG, or PNG image, or as an HTML project to disk or to your MobileMe account. You can even export directly to iPhoto for quick photocasting or iPod syncing. Lists and mind maps can be exported or imported as OPML or text outline, tables as CSV.

And That's Not All!~Evernote integration, audio and video recording, interactive WebViews with Google Docs support, presentation mode with custom transitions, Scrapbook service, screen grabber, Flashlight file searcher, multi-touch, spread PDF, and instant archives. Plus much, much more!
