A wall for the threads you can't stop pulling.
Pin what you find, tie it together with string, and ask the assistant what you are missing. Made for decoders first, and for anyone else chasing something, from a family photo to a cold case.

It reads the whole thread, not just one note
Ask what you are missing, and it reads every pin, every string and every note on the thread. Then it tells you which ties are weak, what might be missing and where to look next.
Anything it adds to your wall comes in marked as a hunch until you check it.
It takes a name that fits the work: the Archivist for family history, the Sleuth for mysteries, the Oracle for decoding, the Tutor for study.
Same handwriting ties the letter to a printed wedding announcement. Print has no handwriting, so if the match is to a note written on the clipping, say that on the string.
Same name on the list rests on the name alone. Check the age and the port on the 1957 passenger list against what the family knows about Manuel.
Nothing yet puts Manuel in the photo itself. Look on the back for a studio stamp, and in the Honolulu city directories from 1957 to 1961 for his street.
One thread, many views
The same pins laid out on a board, a timeline, a map or the sky on the day it happened.
Present it live
Go on stage to walk an audience through a thread. Move and mark things as you talk, and none of it is saved.
Bring in the books
Photograph pages or open a PDF, and every word becomes something you can search and pin.
Start from a sample
Say what brings you here and a sample thread opens to learn from: a family across four generations, a ship found empty at sea, a painting full of symbols, a made up case file.
The decoder's tools, built in
Paste a hidden message and it tries Caesar, Vigenère, Morse, cryptograms and more than 20 others at once. Numerology in 146 ciphers, dates, primes, pi and phi, the sky on any date, and scripture with the Hebrew and Greek.
Make it look like yours
Eleven looks to start from, then every color on its own, your own background and your own logo.
