Everything revolves around you.
Rota is a universal productivity workspace built around a contextual tool wheel that appears right at your cursor — so powerful everyday tools are always one motion away.
Drag. Hold Shift. Drop.
Start dragging any file and a glass wheel opens under your cursor. Hold Shift for the convert wheel, Alt for the tools wheel, then drop on what you want. The result lands right beside the original.
Interactive — drag a file onto the wheelA real editor for every action.
Each wheel action opens its own focused page. Fix light and colour, apply a look, or let on-device AI find the subject and lift it off the background — in about two seconds, without uploading anything.
Interactive — move the sliders, press “Remove background”
