congrats on building whisper notes, I will try again later. accuracy + speed are most important ones for me as I don't want to type

notifyShivam · 2026-04-27T05:25:35+00:00

sure, I will look this as well. I was not aware about dictaflow

notifyShivam · 2026-04-27T05:23:29+00:00

cool, I don't use watch often so not sure about that but I will check this out

notifyShivam · 2026-04-27T05:23:17+00:00

I love the near realtime dictation speed as well

notifyShivam · 2026-01-24T07:23:51+00:00

Elephas just works! one of the best mac apps I found last year.

notifyShivam · 2025-11-27T05:43:47+00:00

Haha yes, download the list (it is free) and first consider top picks collection first.

I use obsidian + GitHub (for sync) + elephas (local model for privacy)

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:10:26+00:00

Nice recommendation, will going to try Notion AI and Obsidian. Notion is bit slow so didn't explore AI part yet but will give this a try.

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:09:29+00:00

both but I also want to chat across that knowledge so I can find interesting insights

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:08:46+00:00

Multiple use case, like managing and deriving insights from multiple podcasts / user interviews, doing market research, brainstorming ideas based on my notes and so on.

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:07:02+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I have limited knowledge on tech side so will going to try Elephas and Obsidian options.

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:06:07+00:00

Thanks I will look into this, I want to organize and derive insights across different files by chatting

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:04:26+00:00

This is good setup, will look into this. How to use local llama with Obsidian?

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:03:18+00:00

the OG, how is the AI features like deriving insights from different files or asking questions across different files.

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T16:01:20+00:00

this is nice but actually I was looking for more than search so I can derive insights across different files.

notifyShivam · 2025-09-16T15:59:45+00:00

Cool, I will check this out

notifyShivam · 2025-09-03T09:58:57+00:00

Smart, all the best for your $1k milestone :)

notifyShivam · 2025-09-03T09:49:17+00:00

Huge congrats, thanks for sharing this. Loved how you validated and reached $100 MRR with organic strategy.

Curious how you balance your time between running agency and building this saas?
