What it does
Spatial is a Mac-oriented notes app that places notes, scribbles, images, videos, and web clips on a visual canvas. Its official page describes longer sheets, sticky notes, stacks, and Markdown storage and export. The listed options are $4.99 per month, $49.99 per year, or a one-time $119.99 purchase; the site notes that PDF support is still coming and DOC, DOCX, and Google Docs files are unsupported.
Spatial presents a visual alternative to notebook lists: notes, scribbles, images, videos, and web clips can be placed together on a canvas and grouped into stacks. The official site distinguishes quick sticky notes from longer sheets and says information is stored as Markdown and can be exported. This layout suits reference gathering where visual adjacency matters as much as a folder tree.
The site lists monthly and annual subscriptions as well as a one-time purchase. It also calls out current document limits: PDFs are still described as coming, and DOC, DOCX, and Google Docs files are unsupported. I reviewed the product page and its published pricing; I did not install the Mac app or test export behavior.
