Apps

# Daily drivers for your whole business.

Apps sit on top of the same files. The things you keep opening, your money, your health, your clients, each get a screen made for them, over the folder you own. One structure underneath, many ways to run it.

The Apps panel in the demo. Finance runs today.

The foundation

## It all runs on Oknola, free.

Everything installs on the free Oknola app. Point it at a folder, or let it create one, and it builds the entire Indexed Brain structure itself, then keeps it clean as you work: the typing, tagging and linking is the app’s job, not yours.

Zero setup, no manual to read first, no evenings spent maintaining the system. Apps install on top, and you pay only for the ones you use.

App 01 · the first app

## Finance

### Your money, finally visible.

You carry the total in your head.
The total in your head is wrong.

Accounts in more than one country. Cards, crypto, whatever you invested in, and the debt you would rather not look at.

And at the start, one card pays for both lives. A subscription lands wherever you happened to be signed in. By the time it matters, for an invoice, a tax return or deciding whether you can afford to hire, nobody can say which half of it was the business.

One card pays for both. The account cannot tell them apart. The tag can.

Live on 118 ledger files in the folder this company runs on today. The app that reads them is in build.

Subscriptions in the demo: each one records which side pays for it and which account it comes out of.

The mechanism

## How apps work.

01

### Install on top.

Every app is a window over the same folder: nothing forks, nothing duplicates.

02

### Pay only for what you use.

The app is free; each app is optional and priced on the time it buys back.

03

### Removing an app never touches your data.

Every app keeps everything in plain, portable files, always. The files stay, readable as ever, in any editor. Leaving is copying a folder.

04

### Agent-agnostic by design.

Whatever an app manages, your own AI can read too.
