II.I

On disk, on the web — pair once, sync forever

Why we stopped asking studios to export twice.

Design files already live on disk — in Rhino, AutoCAD, Illustrator. The web shouldn't be a second home you have to maintain by hand.

We're building Esi desk so pairing a folder is the only setup step. After that, every commit is a moment on Chronicle. Disk stays canonical; the web stays current.

Studios told us the friction wasn't the timeline — it was getting work into the timeline without breaking flow. That's what II.I is about.

What we're working on

  • Faster pair flow for large vaults
  • Clearer sync status when you're offline
  • Commit messages that travel with the file
