hey everyone,
i built this because i got entirely overwhelmed by constant digital noise, notification spam, and cloud tracking. i wanted a clean, local-first workspace that lives entirely on my machine.
i’m opening a tiny early-access waitlist today to gather blunt, honest feedback from early adopters on the concept before finishing the code.
would love to hear your thoughts on the workflow layout and what tools you'd want built natively offline!
Curious how the on-device AI co-pilot handles bigger models. Does it require a beefy GPU to feel snappy or is it actually usable on something like a mid-tier MacBook Air?
Customizing the workspace felt surprisingly intuitive, and I actually forgot how nice it is to have flash cards built right in without bouncing between apps.
How does the on-device AI co-pilot actually perform on everyday hardware? I have a mid-range laptop and I'm curious whether it'll feel snappy or end up being the biggest bottleneck in an otherwise distraction-free setup.
