btw great video to watch. branding is reputation. youtu.be/sO4te2QNsHY?si…

i think geo is basically branding. the only difference is that geo is a collection of weighted keywords that you want people to know about, whereas branding is more about how they perceive the brand.

If you want an AI notetaker that you can trust — get char today char.com

I paid $150k for char[dot]com. But I think it was totally worth it — best name for a notepad for meetings!

i've been secretly building an IDE for daily notes — it's a notepad that builds apps(widgets). some cool features: 1. imcomplete todos get rolled over so you never forget them 2. fully markdown-based so it's fully compatible with your existing Obsidian vault 3. generate reusable widgets that stay embedded in your notes 4. use AI chat to get instant insights about your life

@ideabrowser @getcharnotes says hi

Startup idea that customers are begging to buy right now. Open Granola -Same meeting capture (no bot joining calls) -macOS Native desktop app -Notes stored as markdown files. -API (not MCP) -Local-first, or privacy. - Agent-readable by default. -Plays nicely with ai-first tools. Granola just locked down their local db, went MCP only. Someone is going to build a more open version and print money. If you build this... 1. I'll buy it and be your first customer. 2. I'll help you launch and get users. DM me the link.

@toddsaunders @getcharnotes is open source and filesystem based

Take away my API access, and I take away my credit card. What are the best alternatives to Granola? Would love to hear what you are using.

What if a world model could render not an imagined place, but the actual city? We introduce Seoul World Model, the first world simulation model grounded in a real-world metropolis. TL;DR: We made a world model RAG over millions of street-views. proj: seoul-world-model.github.io

@getcharnotes is the best alternative for granola. everything is local-first, plus we're completely open source as well.

@appenz @meetgranola you gotta check out @getcharnotes — you can even embed char within your existing knowledge base.

Sorry to see Granola @meetgranola going closed. They encrypted their local db, no local and no cloud API. In a world where notes are managed by agents, the app now has zero value. Any recommendations for good alternatives? What are you switching to?

cool websites you should check out: - char[dot]com - getchar[dot]com - char[dot]so - char[dot]notes

am i the only one who wasn't using hedgehog mode in @posthog

if you like where we're heading at with @getcharnotes — please follow our account and stay tuned!

and our final destination would be to become part of the task managing stack as well.

i was thinking about how @getcharnotes could survive and drew some stuff because i'm a visual thinker. i wanted to share them publicly to share my perspective. --- when you're working, everything is a note of some form. - discussing things with your team in slack channels - leaving a quick memo in your personal dm - editing your team wiki after meetings - writing down daily notes to navigate your life
