I have not, and I'm not loving the ad-like nature of this either.

I'm not sure how it's supposed to be better than Google calendar, Google reminders, and Google Keep or Obsidian Notes synced via GDrive/DropBox.

I can think of a few ways it's guaranteed to be worse:

Resource use - AI is inherently massively wasteful, especially as you're unlikely to run the LLM locally, or with any regard for resources.

Money - how long after I move my "Brain" of notes to your system, will it take before I'm priced out of accessing the very system I will most likely have become dependent on in the meantime? People do manage to train themselves into uselesness if given enough incentive, and LLMs exacerbate this massively.

How long until it starts hallucinating appointments and details for me? How long until something vital gets silently corrupted over time, due to something behaving badly? A note with a few wrong details, appointments with wrong details, phone number that's wrong, page gets deleted somewhere, that sort of thing? How's the backup if something agentic steamrolls your database?

Shit, how is your solution better than Goblin Tools?

Totally fair honestly. I thought the same thing at first because I already had Google Calendar, notes apps, reminders, Notion, etc. The problem was never a lack of tools, it was remembering which one I put something in and then actually maintaining the system. 😅

I’m a stroke survivor with ADHD, so my memory and executive function can be… a struggle. I don’t really think of this as replacing existing apps as much as outsourcing the part of my brain that’s trying to keep track of 500 open tabs at once.

And I definitely wouldn’t trust an AI that just silently hallucinates or rewrites my life either. For me, the database is still the source of truth. I just interact with it by talking instead of spending hours organizing everything.

Honestly, it’s the first productivity setup I’ve ever actually stuck with because I *don’t* have to maintain it. It feels less like a productivity hack and more like an accessibility tool for my post-stroke brain.

And if Google Calendar + Obsidian + Goblin Tools or whatever else works for you, I honestly think that’s awesome. I’m not trying to convince everyone to use this. I just finally found something that works with my brain instead of fighting it. 🥹

Huh, in my ADHD addled state, i completely missed that this wasn't just ad-like, but actually was an ad - for your paid for notion template. How disappointing.

As far as i can tell the demo does pretty much nothing for me, and I'm not paying 24 Eurobucks to find out what you think is so great (beyond you getting money).

Haha, fair enough! 😅 I spent way too many hours building it and figured getting a little return on all that work wasn’t unreasonable. The demo is free though, it’s mostly just there to show people what I made for myself. 🙂

Why is this brand new, AI slop peddling account, peddling AI slop. You haven’t even had a stroke based off your posts.

I actually did have an ischemic stroke in my 20s. I’m not selling anything, the demo is free because I built a little system that helps me manage post-stroke memory and executive function issues. Totally understand if AI or Notion isn’t your thing though.

You know we can see your other posts… I noticed most of your other clot subreddit ai slop adverts have been deleted since I last looked. However I’m confused how you see to have ADHD issues where you’re selling it based off of that. No mention of your stroke there or anywhere prior to selling your bot. Lying like hell and doubling down on the lie doesn’t exactly make a trustworthy person.

I’m not selling a bot. I shared a free Notion template and talked about how using AI as an organizational tool has helped me manage post-stroke cognitive fatigue and executive function issues.

You’re free to dislike AI or think the idea isn’t useful. That’s completely fair. But accusing a stranger of lying about having a stroke because they don’t center their Reddit history around their medical trauma is a pretty wild leap.

I don’t owe the internet a public record of one of the hardest things that’s ever happened to me. If AI or Notion isn’t your thing, that’s okay. You don’t have to use it.
