Power Apps

Many apps. One workspace.

Open a document and the tool it needs is already open with it. No second app to buy, no import step, no second copy quietly going out of date. Windows, macOS, Linux and the browser, all the same workspace.

OCR turns a scan into blocks of real text. Click a block to edit it in place, cut or merge pages, or send the lot to a note that reads properly on any device.

Then tile them, and think in parallel.

Drag one Power Tab against another and the two become a tab set. Compare, reference and keep an eye on something while you work. Columns, rows, a grid, or a shape you make yourself.

Why Oyren

Everything connected.
And multilayered.

Four layers over the same files. The first one is free and stays free. Everything above it is opt-in, priced before it runs, and works on what the layer below already gave you.

## 3.2 Attention weights
Each query is scored against every key, then normalised across the whole row.
$$\alpha_{ij}=\frac{e^{q_i^{T}k_j/\sqrt{d_k}}}{\sum_{l=1}^{n} e^{q_i^{T}k_l/\sqrt{d_k}}}$$
Relative offsets survive past the training window.

Every page becomes text.

A scan, a photographed handout, a slide export — Oyren writes it out as real text, with equations, tables and columns intact. The PDF turns editable in the same pass.

Ask it. Or make it a colleague.

Chat over everything you have shared, with answers that cite the file and the page. Or build an agent from your files — give it domain knowledge and a character, a teacher or a colleague, and brainstorm with it.

The seams

The work isn't the problem. The handoffs are.

Every export drops something. A permission, a source, the reason a decision was made. Four tools means four places for that to happen before anyone has done anything useful.

Coding agents

Run any CLI. In the cloud.

Claude Code, Codex, opencode and Cursor run on our servers, in a sandbox with your repo already checked out — nothing to install, nothing left running on your laptop. Qwen Code and Antigravity are disabled for now; both are coming soon.

Model choice

We support API keys from these accounts.

Paste in your own key and the request goes straight to the provider. It bills to your account and never passes through us. Or use the workspace wallet and skip five subscriptions. Either way, switching model is a dropdown.

Or don't bother with keys
The workspace wallet covers every provider from one $5 balance, instead of five subscriptions.
Switching costs nothing
Your documents, permissions and history don't move when the model does. It's a dropdown.
And of course…

Built to the standards, while we go and earn the badges.

We are early, and none of these are finished, so we will not show you a badge we have not earned. What we can tell you is that the controls behind them are already how the product is built, and exactly where each one stands.

Credentials encrypted at rest

Agent sandboxes get roughly an hour of access to one repository. Nothing else.
Permission checked before existence
Non-members cannot enumerate what they cannot open, so nothing leaks through a 404.

The going rate

Somewhere along the way, $19 a month became the entry fee.

That is $228 a year, committed before you have opened anything. Reasonable when a company is paying. Quietly disqualifying if you are a student, a researcher, a freelancer, an occasional user, or simply somewhere $228 is not a rounding error.

Entry-tier list prices, August 2026. The 100MB some tools open at $19 a month for is where Oyren starts, with notes, boards and mind maps included.

Pricing

Start free. Add AI the day it's worth it.

Storage and credits are separate dials. Credits cover cloud agents and AI chat, never expire, and can top up automatically — or bring your own API key for some of it. The one subscription is storage, for when 100MB stops being enough.

Everything you need to think, write and organise. When you want AI, bring your own key or top up credits.

Straight answers

The questions we'd ask too.

Including the ones with answers we would rather not give.

No. Notes, mind maps, boards and 100MB are yours without spending anything, and they stay that way. AI is not disabled either. It is opt-in, drawing on credits, so it only costs you when you actually use it. Nothing counts down, and nothing quietly stops working in week three.

Teams, seats, SSO, role-based access and audit logs do not exist yet. AI is pay-as-you-go only; the one subscription we sell is annual storage. If you need to pass a formal security review for more than about fifty people, we are not the right answer yet, and we would rather tell you now than in week six of an evaluation.

No, on any plan, and that includes the free one. If you bring your own API key your requests never pass through us at all; they bill straight to your provider account. It is worth checking what your current tools set their defaults to.

Because you are paying for the workspace, not for permission to use AI. Most tools charge a monthly fee whether you open them or not, then bill model usage on top. We would rather charge you for work you actually did. You top up when there is something to do, and every run shows what it came to on the same page you topped up on.

Your files live in one place. Open one and you get the tool that fits it: a PDF reader that annotates block by block, a notes editor, a mind map, a kanban board, a chat, or a supervised agent run. Because the file never moves, the permissions and the paper trail follow it everywhere.

Get started

Bring one document. Judge it on that.

Create a workspace, drop in the file you were going to open anyway, and see how much of the afternoon you used to spend moving it between apps.
