How much time do you spend switching between your notes and a browser tab? Web embed tiles let you pin any website directly onto your Melo canvas as a live, interactive tile.
Web Embed Tiles for researchers
Researchers deal with papers, citations, and literature review. Melo's web embed tiles is particularly valuable here because it lets you organize this work spatially — seeing everything in context rather than hidden behind tabs and folders.
Open a journal article in one tile, your notes in another, and AI chat to help you synthesize findings. Melo's spatial layout lets you visually map relationships between papers. All data stays local — your unpublished research never touches a cloud server.
1.Dozens of browser tabs open with journal articles and no way to organize them
2.Literature review notes disconnected from the papers they reference
3.AI tools that summarize without understanding your research context
4.Collaborative tools that put sensitive unpublished research on someone else's server
Key benefits
1
Live web content
Embed any URL as an interactive tile on your canvas. Browse, scroll, and interact with websites without leaving your workspace.
2
Reference alongside work
Pin API docs next to your development notes. Keep a project management board visible while planning. See analytics while writing your report.
3
Persistent layout
Your web tiles persist in your board layout. Close and reopen Melo — your embedded websites are exactly where you left them.
4
Zero context switching
Stop bouncing between browser and workspace. Everything you need is on one canvas, visible at the same time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Melo good for researchers?
Yes. Melo's spatial canvas is particularly well-suited for researchers who need to manage papers, citations, and literature review. The ability to tile multiple content types on one board means you can see everything relevant to your work without switching apps.
How do researchers use Melo differently?
Researchers typically create boards organized around their papers, citations, and literature review. They tile relevant documents, tasks, web references, and AI chat specific to their workflow. The spatial layout lets them design a workspace that matches how they naturally think about their work.
How does Web Embed Tiles work in Melo?
Web Embed Tiles 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.
How does Melo's AI work?
Melo's AI is built into the canvas as a tile. It sees your notes, tasks, calendar, and tiled web pages — giving it full context about your workspace. You can ask it to summarize, draft, brainstorm, or organize, and it responds with answers grounded in your actual work.
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.
