A Creative Profile tells Tapestry what kind of work you do and what matters for the project: your interests, tools, desired outcome, working style, budget, deadline, and hard limits.
You can create separate profiles for different practices or projects. The active profile shapes new sessions only; switching profiles never changes sessions you have already saved.
In the app
Focus the session
Before recording, look at the project shown beneath the record button. Tap Current project or Change when you want to update the brief or switch to another Creative Profile.
Describe what you are creating, when you need it, the constraints Tapestry should respect, topics to avoid, and how you like to work. Then save the changes.
In the app
Think out loud
Tap the large red record button and allow microphone access if asked. Speak naturally about the idea, reference, conversation, or creative problem you want to explore.
You do not need to dictate a perfect note. Explain what you are trying to make, what feels unresolved, what you have already tried, and what constraints are shaping the work.
In the app
Follow the live session
Your words appear as a live transcript. As the idea develops, Tapestry may surface Emerging Sparks: provisional connections, techniques, questions, or next steps grounded in what it heard.
Sparks are working material, not final answers. You can pause and resume the recording, or simply keep speaking while Tapestry continues listening for stronger connections.
In the app
Complete the thought
When you are finished, tap the red stop button. Tapestry moves to Shaping the notes while it completes the transcript and reviews the full conversation against your Creative Profile.
Let this step finish before starting another session. The completion screen appears when the reviewed material is ready.
In the app
Choose what to continue
After processing, Tapestry shows the strongest deeply reviewed Threads alongside any remaining Emerging Sparks. A Thread pairs a creative direction with an action, supporting evidence, and an explanation of why it fits your brief.
Treat each result as material for your own judgment. Keep what is useful, adapt it to your voice, and ignore anything that does not serve the work.
In the app
Return to the work
Open the Threads tab to find past sessions. Select a session to revisit its reviewed Threads, Emerging Sparks, transcript, and available recording details. You can also rename sessions so they are easier to recognize later.
Use the You tab to manage Creative Profiles, subscription and usage, privacy and data controls, support, and account settings.
