LLM Knowledge Bases
Something I'm finding very useful recently: using LLMs to build personal knowledge bases for various topics of research interest. In this way, a large fraction of my recent token throughput is going less into manipulating code, and more into manipulating knowledge (stored as markdown and images). The latest LLMs are quite good at it. So:
Data ingest:
I index source documents (articles, papers, repos, datasets, images, etc.) into a raw/ directory, then I use an LLM to incrementally "compile" a wiki, which is just a collection of .md files in a directory structure. The wiki includes summaries of all the data in raw/, backlinks, and then it categorizes data into concepts, writes articles for them, and links them all. To convert web articles into .md files I like to use the Obsidian Web Clipper extension, and then I also use a hotkey to download all the related images to local so that my LLM can easily reference them.
IDE:
I use Obsidian as the IDE "frontend" where I can view the raw data, the the compiled wiki, and the derived visualizations. Important to note that the LLM writes and maintains all of the data of the wiki, I rarely touch it directly. I've played with a few Obsidian plugins to render and view data in other ways (e.g. Marp for slides).
Q&A:
Where things get interesting is that once your wiki is big enough (e.g. mine on some recent research is ~100 articles and ~400K words), you can ask your LLM agent all kinds of complex questions against the wiki, and it will go off, research the answers, etc. I thought I had to reach for fancy RAG, but the LLM has been pretty good about auto-maintaining index files and brief summaries of all the documents and it reads all the important related data fairly easily at this ~small scale.
Output:
Instead of getting answers in text/terminal, I like to have it render markdown files for me, or slide shows (Marp format), or matplotlib images, all of which I then view again in Obsidian. You can imagine many other visual output formats depending on the query. Often, I end up "filing" the outputs back into the wiki to enhance it for further queries. So my own explorations and queries always "add up" in the knowledge base.
Linting:
I've run some LLM "health checks" over the wiki to e.g. find inconsistent data, impute missing data (with web searchers), find interesting connections for new article candidates, etc., to incrementally clean up the wiki and enhance its overall data integrity. The LLMs are quite good at suggesting further questions to ask and look into.
Extra tools:
I find myself developing additional tools to process the data, e.g. I vibe coded a small and naive search engine over the wiki, which I both use directly (in a web ui), but more often I want to hand it off to an LLM via CLI as a tool for larger queries.
Further explorations:
As the repo grows, the natural desire is to also think about synthetic data generation + finetuning to have your LLM "know" the data in its weights instead of just context windows.
TLDR: raw data from a given number of sources is collected, then compiled by an LLM into a .md wiki, then operated on by various CLIs by the LLM to do Q&A and to incrementally enhance the wiki, and all of it viewable in Obsidian. You rarely ever write or edit the wiki manually, it's the domain of the LLM. I think there is room here for an incredible new product instead of a hacky collection of scripts.

met a guy last week making $43,000/month sending cold emails to people who left 1-star reviews for his competitors
not joking
he scrapes trustpilot and g2 for every 1-star review in his niche
finds the persons linkedin
pulls their email
sends them one message:
"saw your review of [competitor]. we built [product] specifically because of complaints like yours. want to see it?"
reply rate: 11.4%
for context the average cold email reply rate is 0.3%
his is 38x higher
because rather than just emailing strangers, hes emailing people who are already pissed off and actively looking for an alternative
they JUST took time out of their day to write a paragraph about how much they hate the thing you replace
theyre literally the hottest lead on planet earth
and theyre free public information sitting on review sites
he showed me his process:
step 1: filter trustpilot for 1-star and 2-star reviews of top 3 competitors posted in last 90 days
step 2: copy the reviewers name into linkedin sales nav
step 3: pull email with apollo or instantly
step 4: send the email within 72 hours of them posting the review while theyre still mad
step 5: appointment setter calls every positive reply within 5 minutes
close rate on these calls: 41%
because the entire sales conversation is "what did they fuck up" and "heres how we do it differently"
literally no convincing or educating needed
no overcoming objections about whether they need the category
they already bought it once
they already know they need it
they just need it from someone who doesnt suck
last month he scraped 290 negative reviews
found emails for 203 of them
got 23 positive replies
booked 19 calls
closed 8 deals at $4,200 average contract value
$33,600 in revenue from reading complaints
the craziest part
three of his customers told him they were ABOUT to switch to a different competitor before he reached out
he intercepted them mid-churn
one guy said "i literally had the contract open in another tab when your email came in"
timing is everything
most people are cold emailing prospects who dont even know they have a problem yet
this guy is emailing people who just spent 20 minutes writing a essay about their problem on the internet
every 1-star review is someone announcing "i have budget, i have pain, and im shopping right now"
your competitors are generating your lead list for you
theyre spending $50K on ads to acquire a customer
that customer hates them
writes a review
and you email them for free and close them in one call
right now theres probably 200 people who reviewed your competitor in the last 60 days
theyre all reachable
theyre all in market
and theyre all ignored because everyone thinks cold email means emailing cold people
these people are on fire
go put it out
p.s. if you want us to setup a cold email system that books you 10-30 calls per month - DM me "COLD"
(you ONLY pay for qualified calls actually booked onto your calendar)

@rayansadri Totally agree… Basically what I experienced too - its basically claude code with skills -_-

Tried it out. So the product scans stuff, then it shows Reddit tells me people post about my company, surfaces competitors I already knew about ages ago, wraps it in a dashboard, and wants me to scream “OMG we saved $60k. At this point I’m convinced half of startup hype is just polished demos. How’s this the “ultimate CMO” for me
