Carton is a tiling, keyboard-driven workspace where your contacts, pipeline, email, tasks, notes, and billing all live next to each other. No tab-juggling. No leaving the workspace. No context loss.
In a typical CRM, even a simple "I just talked to a client, here's what we said" is a tab-switching marathon. In Carton, your notes, contacts, and tasks are already next to each other.
Carton borrows from tiling window managers and brings them to a CRM. Your whole workflow lives on one screen.
Contact, Pipeline, Tasks, Notes, Email, Billing — every part of your day gets its own pane. ⌘↩ splits a pane right, ⌘⇧↩ splits down, ⌘W closes. No more tab-juggling between five SaaS tools that don't talk to each other.
Save different layouts for different jobs. Workspace 1 is your morning triage. Workspace 2 is deep-focus on a single deal. Workspace 3 is end-of-day review. ⌘T opens a new one, click a tab to switch.
Draft a quote. Convert it to an invoice. Pull customer data straight from your contacts. No Stripe Sales tab limbo.
Pin a contact with ⌘⌥A. Tasks, email, billing, notes, activity — every pane filters to that person. Toggle a single pane out with ⌘⌥L; clear the pin with ⌘⌥.. Tag chips (#investor, #client) work the same way.
Your inbox isn't a separate world. Read an email and see the deal it belongs to without switching apps. Drafts auto-save. Attachments inline. ⌃⇧E to compose from anywhere.
Hit ⌘/ to see every shortcut for the focused pane. ⌘[ / ⌘] walk panes, ⌘↑ / ⌘↓ walk records, ⌘⌫ deletes with a confirm. No documentation tax. Mouse still works, of course.
Carton is in private beta. Request access and we'll send a download link as soon as a spot opens.
