A customizable platform to create pages for your projects and hobbies. Get started with templates and AI, loaded with productivity tools to stay organized.
Hello makers, geeks, and adventurers of Product Hunt!
My name is Maria, one of the co-architects of Hylark. 👋 I am absolutely thrilled to share Hylark with you, the Life Management platform that puts you, the user, at the center. We designed Hylark as a powerful tech solution to the real-world challenges we face every day.
This is the idea: You bring your aspirations, your requirements, and your passions, and we bring the technology and innovation to make what you want to achieve easier and faster. We built Hylark from the ground up to be highly flexible. You tailor it to your unique needs, data, and workflows. You’re in the driver seat, with a reliable system to support you.
We go a little bit further than that though 😉
Through integration with AI, we’ve elevated these customization capabilities.
The only thing that separates you from a platform that does what you want, your way, is a chat. With AI, you can create a personalized set up for your specific goals - whether it’s managing complex projects, running a business, or planning your next vacation. And you’re not stuck in one way of working. You can keep making changes as your requirements evolve.
Life Management platform? What’s this? Tell me more!
Life is messy, beautiful, and unique. We believe technology should adapt to us, not the other way around. Our lives our unique, so it makes sense that the tools that serve us best would also be unique. On Hylark, the permutations for what you can do with your account are nearly endless. We’ve done the back-of-the-envelope calculations. Between all of the options available for your data, workflows, visual displays, markers, hierarchy and organization, there are billions of possible combinations for your workspace. Your setup will truly be one of a kind.
Your data is all together in one place, eliminating the need to jump between multiple systems. Whether you’re a business owner managing clients, a creative organizing projects, or someone just trying to bring order to every day chaos (or all of these and more), Hylark has what you need to get more out of every moment.
Our goals
- We love easy. We love simple. And we definitely love intuitive technology and pushing the boundaries of what is possible.
- We want to add value to your life, and free you up so that you have more time and mental space for the things that matter most to you.
- We’re also big on privacy. We’ve striven to create a digital space you can trust.
Highlights (or… Hylights 😜)
🔧 Customizable data: Define your own data structures. For anything. And we mean anything.
🤝 Collaborate:Create a collaborative base for your business, family, club, or any group of people.
📄 Pages and spaces: Create tailored views for your data, whether for work, hobbies, or dreams.
🦾 Built with AI in mind: Use our AI tools for setup and customizations
✅ Features, features, and more features: Calendars, events, to-dos, pinboards, documents, links, and more. We’ve got the digital tools for you.
🔗 Integrations: Connect with tools like Google and Microsoft for an all-in-one life hub. You can even send and receive emails from Hylark.
🔖 Markers: Use Tags, Pipelines, and Statuses to track progress, filter, group, and visualize workflows.
🎨 Custom views and displays: Create displays you actually like to look at. Some of us like images. Some like words. Some like emojis and gifs. Whatever your preference, we’ve got your back.
Our journey
How else could it begin, but with a dream? We wanted to create technology that genuinely makes people’s life better. What does “better” mean? For some, it’s simplifying the day-to-day. For others, it’s about achieving big goals or juggling the intricate details of a business or hobby. We wanted to boldly go where tech hasn’t gone before: to create an innovative platform that’s powerful, joyful, and designed for real, complex lives. Hylark is a labor of love crafted by an incredible team that has poured their creativity, expertise, and heart into the product.

@victoria_wu Hi! Thank you for the question!
There are a few things:
- Right off the bat, users can create a personalized account using the AI chat. They do not need to deal with pre-set templates or workflows. They can just say what they want and chat to get it. For example, "I want to pick my next vacation destination". This is great because I think most of us have a much easier time just talking, rather than navigating software and trying to understand how things work, and how we can make them useful to us. The AI also provides suggestions, so it's straight-forward to get started, and to get a sense of what Hylark can do for you! Once someone has their account, they can customize further, again with the option of using the AI chat.
- Hylark combines a lot of different apps into one. This concept itself is not new, but the extent to which we do it is unique. You can send and receive emails from Hylark. You can link those emails to custom records and view them within that custom record. And combine that with other features in context like To-dos, Links, Documents, Events, and more!
- Visual workflows, like the Pinboard. You can create inspiration boards, or nice-looking visuals. We've also added a few fun things. If you feel like shaping your custom record images into hearts when you're doing something you enjoy, why not?
- And if anyone is interested in the tech side of things - Our architecture is pretty cool. From the start, we built Hylark to enable powerful customizations, and for integrations (AI, emails, and more to come!). We're ready to take this to some very exciting places.
We have many ideas about how we'd like Hylark to grow and keep offering people value, in a way that hasn't been done before.
@mariachr Congrats, Maria and team! Hylark sounds like a powerful tool. I’m curious how does the AI understand the nuances of a user’s goals to suggest the best setup, and how do you prevent it from feeling too "cookie-cutter" despite all the customization options? Excited to see where this goes!
@tonyabracadabra Haha, I love this question! This is something we’ve thought a lot about.
The AI combines the information provided by the user, context cues, and its general training, along with information about Hylark, to make suggestions for the account structure.
We didn’t make an AI that chooses a template for you. We made an AI that gives you a custom platform of your own design.
We’re not limiting the setup or giving it directions like “If the user wants a CRM, steer them towards X” or “If the user manages projects, do Y”. We left it open to you. How do you want your CRM to work? How do you want to manage your projects? Tell the AI that. Other people’s preferences do not matter here. Just yours.
As long as it conforms to the Hylark account structure, you can take it anywhere. I don’t know how many times we’ve run through the process during building and testing. In the thousands. It provides an immense range of options, depending on what you tell it you want to do. No two accounts made through AI are going to be the same.
I couldn't be prouder of our incredible team for launching Hylark today on Product Hunt! Building this platform has been a challenging journey of innovation and, and I'm thrilled to see it out in the world.
Hylark isn't just another AI tool; it represents a paradigm shift. By embedding AI at its foundation—not just as an add-on—we've created a platform that lets anyone build powerful, adaptable applications tailored to their unique needs. Whether you're designing personal workspaces or collaborating with others on a project, Hylark simplifies the process by using natural language inputs to translate ideas into fully functional solutions.
This milestone showcases the countless hours of effort and creativity that went into solving challenges like app rigidity and the inefficiencies of juggling multiple platforms. Our aim is to democratize software development, empowering everyone—no matter their technical expertise—to create, customize, and evolve solutions effortlessly.
Congratulations to the entire team, and a big thank you to everyone who's supporting us. I can't wait to hear what you all think and hear about the unique ways you'll use Hylark!
Congrats on the launch, team!
@busmark_w_nika I'd love to hear your thoughts on our launch? As the queen of product hunt, I've followed your journey for a while and admire your contributions to new launches.
@natasha_007 Thank you, Natasha! :) I perceive your tool as very complex and really like you broke down features on the website into more categories explaining them. What I am missing a little bit are some testimonials that would create social proof around the product :)
@busmark_w_nika thank you for your response, Nika! I like your suggestion to add some testimonials, I hope this launch can help us with that.
If you ever give Hylark a try, we'd love to hear your thoughts too :D

a great intuitive product. versatile and superbly designed
As a "covert" entrepreneur with several freelance businesses, all the Hylark functionalities combined give me confidence that nothing falls through the cracks and everything I have going on works smoothly. I use it to: organize clients, keep track of payments & invoices, appointments, taxes & other obligations I have to pay monthly/yearly/on specific dates.
As a life coach, the Links and Pinboard features are ideal to share my insights and knowledge on social media or directly with my clients, via the integrated Email.
For my translating business, I've created several glossaries for specific topics and language combinations that I constantly update using Notes; also, I'm able to pace my work, and track deadlines for different projects using the Timekeeper.
I've made custom records for my tutoring students, with their level for different skills (reading, writing, etc.) and I update their progress using Pipelines, to keep parents informed; this also guides me in the process of placing students together in compatible groups and making adjustments at any moment.

I like this a lot more than somewhere like Notion etc.
Much much cleaner interface & quite clearly a great way to work - It's always tough coming into a company & they already have the standard programs running...
This is something I'd actually be willing to pitch to the team & I don't doubt that people would be keen to switch.
@cranqnow We're always interested in feedback from teams looking at Hylark. If you have any suggestions for new features, don't hesitate to reach out!
We want to give individuals and teams a platform they enjoy coming back to every day, and that offers something they cannot find elsewhere.

@mariachr It sounds like it - I guess that's ultimately the key to retention etc.
Thanks for taking the time to reach out Maria :)
@cranqnow Genuinely, I would love to hear what Hylark could offer your team that you many not find in other products. What would make your team's work faster and easier? Maybe nothing comes to mind today, but if in a month or two, someone on your team says "If only there was a platform that did XYZ", we're hear to listen.
People's goals and ideas have really shaped Hylark.
You never know what's in the pipeline, or what we might be able to do 👀😅🤫
