Most people work with 5-9 apps open at once — notes, browser, calendar, task manager, AI chat. That's 5-9 windows to manage, 5-9 contexts to juggle, and dozens of app switches per hour.
Tiling Workspace for teachers
Teachers deal with lesson plans, student materials, and classroom management. Melo's tiling workspace is particularly valuable here because it lets you organize this work spatially — seeing everything in context rather than hidden behind tabs and folders.
Plan your entire week on one spatial board. Tile lesson plans, student resources, grade tracking, and calendar side by side. Melo's AI knows your curriculum context, so it helps generate materials tailored to your specific students and standards.
1.Lesson planning tools don't integrate with grading, notes, or calendar
2.Creating differentiated materials for different student levels takes hours
3.Classroom resources scattered across Google Drive, email, and physical files
4.AI tools generate generic lesson content that needs heavy customization

Everything visible
No hidden windows, no tab hunting. Everything you need is tiled on one canvas, visible at a glance. When you can see it all, you can think clearly.

Context preservation
Each board preserves your tiling arrangement. Switch between projects by switching boards — your context is exactly where you left it.
3
Diverse content types
Tile notes, todos, web pages, AI chat, clipboard history, and calendar. Mix content types freely to build the workspace your project demands.
4

Create tiles, resize them, navigate between them, and trigger actions — all from the keyboard. Designed for flow state.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Melo better than other tools for teachers?
Most tools force you into their structure — linear documents, rigid databases, or text-only editors. Teachers need flexibility to arrange lesson plans, student materials, and classroom management in a way that makes sense. Melo's spatial canvas adapts to you, and the AI understands your full context.
Which apps have tiling workspace?
Few productivity apps offer true tiling workspace the way Melo does. While some tools have partial implementations, Melo's version is deeply integrated into a spatial canvas with full AI awareness and local-first architecture.
How does Tiling Workspace work in Melo?
Tiling Workspace is built natively into Melo's spatial canvas. It's not a plugin or add-on — it's a core part of the workspace that integrates with your notes, tasks, AI, and other tiles. See the feature details above for specifics.
Is Melo free?
Melo is a one-time purchase — no subscriptions, no recurring fees. Pay once and own it forever. There's no free tier, but you get the full product with a single purchase.
Can I use Melo offline?
Absolutely. Since Melo is local-first, your entire workspace works offline. Notes, tasks, canvas arrangement, clipboard history — everything is available without an internet connection. AI features require connectivity.
