Just build your own. Thats the thing these vendors are forgetting. When they moved in to the app layer and got caught copying customers it became clear that it is dangerous to given them data.
I think people can and should copy the full stack on top of open weights.
Did build my own, it's way more private. Doesn't have these always on features, does have a lot more unique ones, but give me like two more weeks. That "always on" stuff is so ridiculously simple. https://blackbear.app
Perhaps highlight the AI assistant aspect more prominently? If it weren't for seeing this link in this HN discussion, I would have interpreted the offering as some collaborative workspace, a bit like nextcloud.
Cool app. I downloaded it and will try it out. Looks great in a Samsung fold.
Cool. I did the same. propelcode.app
The harness should be your own for sure but the model is the problem. Even if the model is open weight, I have no idea whether it is acting in my interest.
