One of 125 tools in Productivity
Who it's for
- Product managers and managers who want to collect work context and use it for planning.
- Researchers and consultants who need to search and synthesize information from documents, web content, videos, and meetings.
- Engineers and other teams using AI agents who want to retrieve organized work context through the CLI.
Not the right fit if…
- People using a desktop without Windows 10+ (x64) or Apple silicon Macs: those are the desktop platforms currently listed.

How it fits your workflow
Set up data sources such as files and connected work tools. remio indexes and organizes context from those sources, and the site says it can also capture web information and meeting content.
Ask remio questions across the collected material, search multiple meetings, and review the original sources cited in answers.
Use the gathered context to create results such as editable PowerPoint presentations, or retrieve relevant context through the CLI for general-purpose agents.
