Back to the exampleFor Substack and Beehiiv writers
Save posts, notes and voice memos in one tap. When you open a draft, Sparkback pulls up the related ideas you caught weeks ago.
Free up to 50 captures. Private by default.
Inspiration shows up everywhere except the moment you sit down to write.
“It's Sunday, the issue is due, and my mind is blank. I KNOW I saved stuff.”
“My best ideas hit in the shower or while driving, then they're gone.”
“I have 400 saved posts and I've gone back to maybe three.”
“My notes app is a graveyard of half-sentences I don't understand anymore.”
“I built a whole Notion system and quit after two weeks.”
Share a post from any app, jot a quick note, or record a voice memo. One tap, then back to your day.
No folders, tags or titles. Sparkback keeps the context of each capture so you don't have to organize anything.
Start an issue in Sparkback or type what you're writing about. Related saves and memos from weeks ago show up beside you.
Resurfacing is tied to the draft you're working on, not a random daily digest. Write about pricing, see your pricing saves.
Use the iOS or Android share sheet, a quick text note, or a voice memo. Each one takes about a second.
Record a voice memo while walking or driving. It's saved alongside your posts and notes and comes back with them.
Sparkback matches captures to topics by meaning, so you never tag, file or remember the right keyword.
Saved tweets, reels, articles and notes-to-self land in one place instead of scattering across platforms.
Captures are private by default, never used to train AI models, and you can export everything anytime.
Sparkback is for you if
You send a weekly newsletter
You write on Substack or Beehiiv and every issue starts with hunting for something to say.
Your ideas arrive at bad times
Walks, showers, commutes and late-night scrolling are where your best angles show up.
You save a lot and reuse almost none of it
Bookmarks, saved posts and screenshots pile up faster than you ever look back at them.
You've tried a second brain and dropped it
You want the payoff of Notion or Obsidian without maintaining a system.
It's probably not for you if
Notes apps are fast but forgetful. Second brains remember, but only if you do the filing.

Export your captures anytime, on any plan.
Your notes app is great at catching ideas and bad at giving them back. Pro is for when you're tired of starting each issue from zero. You can stay on the free plan up to 50 captures and only upgrade if it's actually saving you time.
Captures are private by default and never used to train AI models. We use them only to match your saves to what you're drafting. You can export everything anytime.
Not directly. You open a draft or type a topic in Sparkback, see your related saves, then write or paste into your newsletter platform as usual.
Notion needs you to file and tag everything. Readwise resurfaces random highlights daily. Sparkback skips the organizing and shows saves related to the issue you're writing right now.
Anything you can share from an app on iOS or Android via the share sheet: posts, videos, links. Plus quick text notes and voice memos inside Sparkback.
A couple of minutes. Install the app, add Sparkback to your share sheet, and start capturing. There's no structure to set up.
Everything you've saved stays and keeps resurfacing. To add new captures beyond 50, you'd move to Pro.
Catch ideas the moment they hit, and see them again when you sit down to write.
