A new kind of data management

Welcome to Everclear Systems - a small company with a big idea

We are the proud creators of a new way of organizing data on a computer. We call it a "Rainbow Interface"*. We invented it because we were tired of the standard method most programs use, of grouping things into folders. And then structuring the folders into a hierarchy, as for example in Windows Explorer. This seems to us like putting stuff into boxes. And then putting the boxes into bigger boxes. When you want to retrieve something, you need to remember which "box" it's in - not always easy as filing systems get bigger and more complex.

So, when we came up with our way of doing this job, we didn't just think outside the box, we threw the box away. There are no folders in our system, and no hierarchy.

Over the few pages of this website, we present a radical new GUI that makes managing data more powerful, more flexible, and more fun. We've already used it in a font-management application for Windows called FontRainbow. If you'd like to have a play with it, we have a dedicated website for it, here.
