✦ Perch: Brain Dump

Brain dump everything.

Talk it out. Watch your thoughts take shape.

Open Perch and talk — in any order, half-finished, all over the place. When you’re done, you see what became clear and a small place to start. Then, quietly, Perch brings things back.

A Perch brain dump: a map of three projects, what became clear, and a place to start

Too much in your head? Say it out loud.

No folders. No tags. No system to set up and immediately abandon.

01 · Talk it out

See what’s there

Your words become a map of what’s on your mind — recurring themes, what feels tangled, and a next move when there’s one worth trying.

02 · It comes back

Back with you

Yesterday’s dump returns the next morning, and saved notes resurface over time. Keep them close or let them drift.

03 · Everything else

It finds its place

Thoughts, voice, photos, drawings and links. Save a video and get the gist. With Pro, collections form on their own.

Questions, answered.

What’s a brain dump?

Talking through whatever’s on your mind, out loud and unfiltered. Perch keeps your words and the recording, then shows you the shape of it — recurring themes, what feels tangled, and a small place to start. Some days bring a deeper reflection; others are simply a moment worth keeping.

Is Perch free?

Yes, Perch is free to use. Free keeps every brain dump’s recording and transcript, lets you capture notes, voice, photos, drawings and links, brings yesterday’s dump back the next morning, and resurfaces saved notes over time. Your first brain dump comes with a full analysis. Perch Pro analyzes every dump and adds automatic collections, connections between notes, weekly recaps and video summaries. Pro starts with a free trial; the price is shown before you buy.

What else can I save?

The rest of life has a place too: a typed thought, a voice recording, a photo or screenshot, a drawing, or a link. Save a video and get the gist. Add your own thoughts to anything whenever something comes to mind.

Do I have to organize anything?

No. No folders, no tags, no system to set up and abandon. With Pro, collections form on their own and related notes find each other.

How does Perch decide what to bring back?

Saved notes come back over time, one at a time — no counts, no backlog, no pressure. You can also pick a date to bring something back yourself. When something returns, keep it close or let it drift.

Is my data private?

Your notes are yours. Perch stores them securely and does not sell your personal content. Details are in the Privacy Policy.

What happens if I stop Pro?

Nothing you’ve saved is deleted. Pro features pause, Perch keeps working on the free plan, and everything Pro organized comes back if you subscribe again.
