Cubeit lets you save, search, and share content from different apps in one place. Save content from different apps by sharing to Cubeit, or use the Chrome Extension if you are on the desktop. You can save links, videos, files, images, notes, maps, reviews from Yelp, contacts and much more. Full list of supported apps here - http://cubeit.io/list_of_support.... Everything in Cubeit is saved as cards. You can put together cards from different sources in a 'Cube' to organize them.

@kwdinc Thanks! Especially excited to see what kind of 'Cubes' the community comes up with :)

Been using Cubeit for a while now, and its sort of become a replacement for my group chats. I share interesting stuff with my team, and what I like most is that it is agnostic of platform. I can add GIFs, tweets, links, images, videos, and everything is in a neat UI. Looking forward to what these guys do next! :D @mythun
Sarthak Jain
Hey @vasanthkamath Thanks a lot for checking us out. Great to hear your enjoying Cubeit! Lookout for the recommendations, that is what we are focusing on next.

So basically this app gives context to all the content that is saved for me to take actions on. Is that right?
Mithun Madhusudan
@mananshah212 Very well summarized :) We view that as the core of the app, but the actual utility is realized when you share links with someone else, because the person on the other end also immediately gets context without having to switch to another app.

Thanks @kwdinc for hunting us! We're excited to be on Product Hunt and show you guys what we have been building. Here's a video teaser of what Cubeit does - https://youtu.be/clXBiR01kUM We started out building Cubeit because we realized that your digital life is spread across too many different apps and we wanted to bring it all in one place. We wanted to create one place where you can store anything and everything. Here's a use case: You are researching a story on Elon Musk. You get content from multiple sources - Tim Urbans comprehensive article, a Product Hunt link from the Tesla Model X launch, Space X video from YouTube, Musk's tweets and so much more. On your PC you would open a folder and put all these different types of content into it. On the phone, we've built Cubeit to get your apps together. You can also share content from any app to anybody irrespective of if they have the app installed. It’s for every conversation that doesn’t fit inside an app, whether the conversation is with your best friend, your twitter community or with yourself. Our interface also makes content viewable and actionable. So instead of links/text you get neat little cards which change depending on the type of content you save. For example, if you save the Tesla headquarters location from Map in Cubeit, instead of a link or an image, you get an actionable card - We identify the type of content and create a card with Uber and Navigate buttons - so you can take action on content from right within Cubeit. You can really use Cubeit for a bunch of different things - Create a Cube (that's what we call a collection of content) to follow the hottest new startup with friends, or save and organize resources for a book you want to write, or create a list and quickly share it to social media. As examples here are a few Cubes we created - The Best Productivity Tools from Product Hunt - http://qbt.io/HWB1 Everything you wanted to know about Virtual Reality - http://qbt.io/G1sY A Cube of Resources for Designers - http://qbt.io/HKT2 Product Managers Reading List - http://qbt.io/HTfA Best of the Golden Kitty Awards - http://qbt.io/RcyB As an exclusive for Product Hunt users we are opening up access to the pre release version of the Cubeit web app. The experience is not as streamlined as in the Cubeit mobile app, but we are getting there. I and the rest of the team look forward to hearing from everyone on Product Hunt what they think of Cubeit, and how we can make it better for you guys! Also, any other apps you would want us to support. (Everyone loves GIFs, so they’re already supported in Cubeit :))

@nithinkumar_g Cool idea Why do you think something like this hasn't taken off previously? Similar things like Relevant have launched previously but just something doesn't seem to blow up and stick
Nithin Kumar
Thanks @bentossell. Relevant did a good job with cards. Their use case is quite different, it’s a lot closer to Google Now than we are. We are more focused on conversations around content. We had an aha moment when we noticed this trend: No three people have the same app they use for content consumption and discovery. We call these tertiary apps, which are not your primary messaging or social app like Facebook or Twitter. Examples are Pinterest, Pocket, Reddit, Medium, Quora, Feedly, Flipboard, Imgur, 9gag, Twitter, ProductHunt and many many more. People find content from different places and conversation around them are not possible as their friends are not on the app. You have the conversation around a link. We wanted to give the native feel around the conversation. It also a great way for communities to grow without people having the app. Almost like a try before you install.

@nithinkumar_g what is the elevator pitch for this product?

No love for iOS?
Mithun Madhusudan
@nostradamion An iOS version is in the works and will be released soon! We're running an early access signup form on our website. Do sign up and we will let you know :)
Mithun Madhusudan
@nostradamion on the first fold, just above the video - one button takes you the play store, the other pops up an early access email input button for the signup.
Rohit Srivastwa
For me it looks like "pocket" reloaded and overloaded. Loved it. Please do bring a native browser app as well to see, read, organize on a better screen size
Mithun Madhusudan
@rohit11 You can check out the pre release version of the web app at http://cubeit.io/35 - as a special treat for Product Hunters :)
Arpit Choudhury
Just tried Cubeit a few days back, it's quite neat. Haven't got a chance to create a cube yet, hope to do that soon! Thinking of saving all relevant links for my upcoming honeymoon!
Mithun Madhusudan
@irhymeth Thanks Arpit! Travel planning was actually one of our earliest use cases. We built an integration for Tripadvisor for that purpose. Do check it out and let us know how it goes!
Victor Bercaru
reminds me of Vurb.
Sarthak Jain
Yeah very similar cards for movies, restaurants etc. But somehow the use case they started with was discovery for things to do with friends which I found very infrequent. Cubeit is conversation around content which gives more focus to easier conversations and then you can search for content from relevant sources like gifs, articles without breaking flow of your chat. Cubeit is for the content you consume on a daily basis.

Hello @nithinkumar_g @sarthak_jain and team cool Idea and execution.
Prathamesh Juvatkar
@mhrnik Thank you. We'd love to hear any feedback about cubeit :)
sam
I really like it. There are more than a couple products out there for collecting and then sorting links. I have become a digital hoarder. The links become clutter for several reasons. At the end of the day taking action with the content I save takes additional work. Cubeit seems like a great tool to trim down the digital quiver by making it super simple to interact with the content I save.
Mithun Madhusudan
@greaterthan1000 thanks for the kind words! Do let us know if you have any feedback on how to make Cubeit better :)
Sarthak Moghe
Cubeit is very well received by the early adopters of Get Worm, and I am sure @mythun and the team will trend here as well. Great product and all the best team!
Mithun Madhusudan
@sarthakmoghe Thanks! We've been getting some great feedback from Get Worm as well, look forward to seeing how it evolves :)
Abhishek Chakraborty
Hey @nithinkumar_g, great job with Cubeit. I'm waiting for the iOS version. But I was wondering, do you have a business model yet?
Nithin Kumar
Thank you @coffeeandjunk. definitely ios app is in the pipeline. Regarding the business model , it will be recommendations based on users content usage and lead generation. Our interface provides relevant actions buttons along with the context , it will be used for lead generation.
João Costa
Cool concept and great idea, i was looking for something like this tnks! i think the trend for 2016 will aggregation and integration. with so many thinks out there this will is useful
Mithun Madhusudan

Good to see Cubeit on product hunt . @mithun was the first person to help out on how to use Cubeit, this act shows a picture of a good support team.
Prathamesh Juvatkar
@kleaklass Thank you very much. We'd love to hear any feedback/suggestions to improve cubeit :)
Matthew TW Huang
I really like this. There can be improvement in terms of optimizing the experience of course, but storing items and sharing items with friends is so simple.
Sarthak Jain
@matthewtwhuang Thanks a lot Matthew for checking us out. In case there are any specific inputs you have in how we could improve the product do let us know. Would be awesome to understand how we can improve
Yash Kotak
I've been using Cubeit since the last two months and I really like the on boarding and design of the app. It's quite useful in making work related collections on mobile.
Sarthak Jain
Hey @yashpkotak thanks a lot for checking us out. Great to hear your enjoying Cubeit! From a work perspective what are the other apps you use that you would like to see in Cubeit in case they aren't already there?
