About
The founder
Antoine spent five years building sovereign infrastructure in Web3 before arriving at the question behind Synap: why does every AI start from zero? Why does switching tools mean losing your context?
He designed and built the Synap platform solo — the Data Pod, its API, and the desktop Browser. Previously CTO at Hashguard, co-founder of Epitaphe Protocol and The Signal.
He thinks in systems. Synap is built the same way: simple primitives that compose into emergent complexity.
The mission
Every tool that stores your knowledge in a shared cloud database is a liability — price hikes, shutdowns, and data portability nightmares are inevitable. Synap's answer is a dedicated private server for each user: standard PostgreSQL and open formats, the same code you can run yourself.
Synap doesn't replace your thinking. It handles the filing so you can focus on the thinking.
The platform
- Built-in entity types — notes, tasks, contacts, deals, articles, and more.
- Views on the same data — kanban, table, calendar, graph, whiteboard, timeline.
- The agent you already use — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and 15 more, each with a setup guide.
- A dedicated private server per user — standard PostgreSQL, full SQL + JSON export.
- Self-hostable — via Docker Compose on any Linux VPS.
- Full tRPC + REST API — with scoped, revocable API keys.
