What is Eidos?
Eidos File is an open format built on standard SQLite storing structured data in single local files. Eidos Lite is desktop software for organizing folders containing .eidos files alongside regular documents and media. The ecosystem includes native mobile apps for Android and iOS, a browser-based editor at editor.eidos.space requiring no installation, and a command-line interface for automation workflows. All data remains offline-first without mandatory account creation.
