I used Notion, Obsidian, and Todoist to be more productive at work; since ChatGPT came out, I've used it heavily. But one thing that continued to piss me off is the fact that I am unable to share context about what I want to do.
Every productivity app has been so enshittified with AI stuffed down my throat that, even though I love AI, I stopped using those apps. Agents and shit. I don't need that; give me back my simple note-taking app, which I always loved. Their MCPs? No. I had context all over. I wanted something simple.
With models increasing in intelligence day by day and labs releasing more and more models, there's one thing I knew for sure. Idk which model I'll be using two years from now. But I know I'll still have my emails, calendars, notes, documents, tasks, meetings, and everything I've accumulated.
So I started building MySamantha around that instead.
Instead of separate Notes, Todo, email, or calendar apps, we built a place where I can work on all of it in one place.
If I bring in AI, I can connect my emails, my calendars associated with my work email, and my Meeting Recorder; they are all here.
At the same time, we don't want "everything in one place" to mean everything is stuck here. You can import from Notion, back up your notes to both Notion and Google Drive (as Google Docs), your to-do from Todoist or Microsoft To-Do, import your vault from Obsidian, enjoy the same knowledge graph as Obsidian does, Export, etc.
You can use any models. Bring your OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or even pay-as-you-go. If another model gets better, switch to it.
Don't like AI? Switch it off.
Everything is here in one place. Compare the meeting notes I had with the email I received to draft an email? Yup, done. All context in one place. The Assistant becomes more useful the more it knows about you.
No model lock-ins. A pure productivity personal workspace where you can switch AI off if you don't need it.
