TIDES
Real-time water that flows, breathes, and answers your hand. Shape the swell, change the weather, chase the light — or just breathe with it.
Change the weather.
Slide from a glassy calm to a full storm. Wind tilts and whips the crests; the whole sky answers.
Or just breathe.
Calm mode slows the sea to a deep swell and guides your breath in and out with it. Set a timer, close your eyes between cues.
Why TIDES exists.
Study tools shouldn't cost money or sell your notes. The big "AI study" apps lock flashcards behind a subscription and upload everything you paste to their servers. TIDES is the opposite on purpose.
Free, no profit
No paywall, no account, no ads, nothing to buy. Built for students, given away. That's the whole point.
Private by design
Your notes, deadlines and grades live on your device only — never uploaded. Paste a whole chapter; it never leaves your laptop.
Works offline
Add it to your home screen and it opens instantly, even with no signal — a calm desk that's always there before a test.
Made by a student, for students. If it helps you pass something, that's the only return we're after. Share it with a friend — it's free for them too.
One engine, endless sea.
Layered waves
Up to seven stacked wave bands with independent speed and phase build a surface that never repeats.
Reacts to you
Your cursor ripples the surface; a click drops a splash that spreads and fades like real water.
Weather & light
Wind, storm, and four times of day recolor the sky and sea together — one coherent world.
Living sound
An ambient pad and soft tones rise and fall with the swell — no audio files, all synthesized.
Calm mode
A breathing guide paced to the tide, with a session timer for focus or winding down.
One file
The whole ocean ships as a single self-contained page. No frameworks, no build, no bloat.
