Current Projects

CueCraft concept: an Obsidian Markdown editor flowing into a Cornell-style study view with AI-generated question cards

CueCraft

In progress

CueCraft solves the problem of reviewing & retaining information already in your Obsidian vault, with AI-generated questions, keywords, summaries and takeaways. It adds a focused review / summary surface to the existing Obsidian notes experience.

Affinote concept: a dark dashboard with a constellation of interest clusters, an interactive timeline, and a shelf of rediscovered saved posts

Affinote

In progress

Affinote solves the problem of finding and retaining information from your social media 'like' activities. On most social media sites, when you found an especially interesting, inspiring, or valuable post, you can 'like' it but that post and your apprecation of it are often ephemeral and unretrievable. What if there was an app with an agent to help you find and rediscover your social media activity, so that your interests / insights were not lost in time?
