Search is MUCH better now.

Way faster, way smarter.

It searches as you type, and it can directly answer the question too.

Still need to iron some kinks, but dare I say; it is starting to feel like google for your personal knowledge base.

Yes, the cost of existing software going to 0 due to AI is interesting.

What’s more interesting is the second and third order effects of this.

What will be the Uber of the AI era?

Quillow’s note taking app is just the stepping stone to what we’re really building.

AI agents that really know you.

The notes / diary give the agents the context they need.

One of the things I love using Quillow for is chucking call notes / transcripts in there.

Whenever I'm designing a new feature, it's so useful to have ultra accurate search and be able to ask questions to the AI that is grounded in all these call notes.

Back on Bluesky, out of the cave.

Edith is the new AI agent on top of Quillow.

You can ask Edith take notes for you- it can even read web links and watch YouTube.

You can ask questions about your notes or simply chat with it.

On WhatsApp as well as web.

Knowledge is not enough . Understanding is needed.

Knowledge is just knowing facts. Understanding is the synthesis of knowledge and connecting the dots.

This is what we need on an AI knowledge base.

And this is what we’re building with Quillow.

YT summaries working now- it's on a cool new whatsapp agent.

Will be integrated to Quillow core so that it's not just your notes but also content you come across that is indexed in your knowledge base.

Day 41.

Back to the swing of things after taking a couple of days off with family.

Smashed out some bug fixes to begin. The onboarding should be smoother now. Also mapped out the next 2 months to figure out where to focus energies.

Day 30

Chilled and squashed some bugs.

Also, played with Claude computer use as a fun side adventure. Pretty expensive and fails at simple things, but that’s also how gpt-2 was.

Go faster or go further?

This is the choice we as engineers and founders have after AI coding like cursor has 10x'd us.

Do we get to the existing bar 10x faster. Or do we raise the bar of the product by 10x.

1 puts the entire value on distribution. 2 puts some of the value still on the product.

Day 24

Trying to revive an old project that did things like YT summaries and integrate that directly into Quillow.

Looks like youtube has really cracked down on scrapers.

Day 23

Been head down with some users, late nights coding, falling sick, and figuring out next steps for Quillow.

Today, I've been working on yet another version of onboarding.

Day 15

Clippy 2.0 and long term memory are closely related.

Still working on this. Code is quite delicate atm.

It feels like jenga.

If my brain starts thinking of anything else now, feel like Jenga would collapse lol.

Experimenting with clippy 2.0.

Working on it to have context across all notes.

Working on an assistant right on the editor itself to provide guidance.

It's a bit of an experiment 🫢 🫢.

Day 10

Did coolest thing with meta ray bans- “Hey meta take a picture (of a diagrams) and send to Quillow”

A user was able to link Quillow SMS with the new iPhone action button! They sent me this vid.

Trialing new onboarding.

Day 9 already, wow.

New onboarding should be out tomorrow! The blank page of death will be abolished.

Also spoke to a lot of users today and wrote down (on Quillow of course) a ton of niggles.

A framing I find useful is to think of Quillow-dot-Me as a personal data lake.

Trying out a cool new alternative to Twilio

Day 6.

I want to accelerate the time to the brutal feedback that only a paywall can provide.

So (only for new users) to balance this, I’m reducing the free words limit. :(

Although this should act as a forcing function to make the product more valuable for everyone!
