What is Fabric?
Fabric is an AI-native workspace and file explorer that intelligently organizes your digital world. Founded by Jonathan Bree along with team members Leonard Marcq and Ivo Silva, this UK and US-based startup has created what they call "a digital library of Alexandria" - a unified platform where all your files, notes, links, and information can seamlessly coexist.
The platform, which raised $1 million in early funding, aims to solve the challenge of fragmented information across multiple apps and services by creating a single, intelligent workspace for both individuals and teams.
Key Features
Universal Organization
Fabric connects and organizes content from various sources, including cloud drives, notes, and web links into one intelligent explorer. Your digital content is automatically understood and connected, making it easily searchable and accessible.
AI-Powered Assistance
The platform's AI assistant can search through your entire workspace to answer questions, generate summaries, or help with specific files and folders. As the company explains: "Your AI tags everything for powerful search, connects the dots between similar items, and intelligently generates personalized smart collections and groups – delivering what you need, when you need it."
Collaborative Tools
Everything in Fabric is designed for collaboration. You can share any item, folder, or space with others, allowing for real-time collaborative editing, commenting, and annotation.
Smart Annotations
One of Fabric's standout features is the ability to annotate virtually anything - files, links, notes, or even websites - allowing you to add context and meaning to your digital content.

Fabric emphasizes security with full encryption both in transit (SSL) and at rest (AES-256), ensuring your data remains private and secure.

The Vision
Fabric is reimagining how we interact with our digital information. As they state on their website, they're building "an AI-native universal storage & team workspace, that runs on autopilot."
In an era where information overload is the norm, Fabric offers a promising solution - a unified, intelligent workspace that helps you find, organize, and collaborate on what matters most.
