Every city has that one district people go to just for the vibe. Maybe it’s a quiet block with bold graffiti in Lisbon, or a street where creative studios live inside old industrial buildings (like FABRIK in Hamburg). These spots aren’t for everyone, but they stand out — places where culture, design, and curiosity naturally come together.

Cosmos is that kind of space online. It’s not built for likes, followers, or quick reactions. It’s made with clarity, depth, and intention in mind — just as laid out in the platform’s manifesto.

Cosmos goes above and beyond the bookmarking tools.

It’s a space where saving turns into curating, and links become part of a bigger story.

You can upload your own content or add across the web with browser extension on via the mobile app. Combine that with the things that inspire you, and organise it all into curated clusters. It’s a way to express your personality through what you create, what you collect, and how you connect the dots.

It’s easy to open up your space — whether that means highlighting a single Element or showcasing a full Cluster that captures an idea. You can do it seamlessly within Cosmos or through a guest link that works across other platforms, no hassle involved for the guest visitor to create accounts or fight with pop-ups.

We are Living in Galaxy of Creativity and Feeling Empty

It’s never been easier to express a thought or an idea online. But with so much content, finding the right piece of inspiration often feels like looking for a needle in a pile of glitter. The algorithms step in to help, sure — but their real job is to keep you engaged, not necessarily inspired.

When everything’s designed to keep you scrolling, the “wow” gets buried before the “aha” can happen. You’re constantly fed, but rarely fulfilled.

Where Cosmos Takes a Different Path

Cosmos doesn’t focus on knowing you. The priority is to understand the pieces of the bigger picture you’re building, and how they might connect. Its AI examines the content itself — everything available and everything you add — to uncover meaningful relationships.

And you are the one in complete control navigating across the elements. You can slide sideways to explore what’s next, or dive down to go deeper into what you’ve already found.

Because the platform focuses on the content, search feels smarter too. Cosmos gives you that kind of flexibility for exploring creativity. The keyword-based results are excellent, and the visual search is also worth checking — it’s genuinely impressive.

Designed to Feel Effortless

For all its depth, Cosmos keeps things simple. The interface is clean, with just the right amount of structure to guide you — no clutter, no steep learning curve.

Creating, saving, and organising happens naturally, almost like muscle memory after a few minutes. Every tap, swipe, or scroll feels considered, letting you focus on what matters: the ideas.

And that’s what turns it from a tool into a place you’ll want to come back to.

Cosmos as an Answer to the Chaos

It’s the work of Dan Klammer, a designer focused on clarity and intention, and Stefan Kainz, an expert in machine learning. Together, they’ve built a platform where structure meets aesthetics, and where technology helps ideas breathe instead of compete.

Just like the universe it’s named after, Cosmos is expanding.

Backed by solid funding ($6М) and with over a million users, the team is stepping into a bold new phase — reinventing the brand from the ground up. They’re now looking for a Creative Director to lead that evolution. Someone to shape the visual identity, voice, and storytelling across every touchpoint.

A Different Kind of Journey

Maybe you’re not ready to lead the creative direction of a growing platform. That’s fine. But if any part of this concept resonates with you – the calm, the curiosity, the focus on meaning over metrics – it might be worth exploring Cosmos for yourself.

Start for free – adding, uploading, sharing and connecting.

For the cost of a quality coffee each month, there is even more. You unlock all username options, get early access to new features, customise your grid, and collaborate with friends. There’s even a bulk export tool for when your ideas need to travel.

It’s a thoughtful upgrade — about the experience and going further.
