Stoked to see LYAI (and LYT more generally) on Product Hunt. Let's Go!!! I loved LYAI - one of the most valuable things you all have put out thus far. With the crush of AI-adjacent courses and gurus and "systems" out there, it can be nearly impossible to find solid guidance on how to make use of AI tools in a way that makes sense.
pause for dramatic effect
UNTIL NOW.
Seriously, though - Nick, the whole LYT team, you all are some of the most steady, grounded & ethically minded people I've had the pleasure to encounter in the wild world of the Internet. I knew that whatever you would put out about AI would be well worth whatever you were charging for it. As a person who has been extensively experimenting with AI & PKM, to be frank, I thought the course would be interesting but not necessarily applicable to me. I was (happily) wrong! True to form, you've delivered on providing rock solid guidance in a world that can feel frightfully difficult to navigate.
The Trident system is a masterstroke, and I've adopted my own version into my larger system. The sherpa and rock tumbler are invaluable, and I'd not have come to those on my own...you've really helped me to upgrade my system - and that's worth its weight in gold!
Homerun.
What would you do if your AI assistant gave you back more time, energy, and attention?
That's the question I keep coming back to with Linking Your AI.
I’m Dan, and I support the backend and customer side of LYT. After months on this, what I can tell you is how much care went into the project. Reviewing survey responses. Reading customer questions. Thinking through what people actually needed.
I’m proud of what we put together as a team, especially Nick, Keaton, Chris, and the whole LYT team. Also big shoutout to Jorell and Artchie for helping bring the videos together so quickly. Really grateful for how people are responding to it!
If you’re curious, I hope you’ll check it out. We’d love to hear what you think and how you’d answer the question above. :)
I have begun the LYAI course and it dovetails beautifully with other AI learning opportunities I am currently part of as well as one I am starting soon. @nickmilo ‘s approaches to note-making always has been tool agnostic and this is no different with LYAI. I am learning things that I can apply in any combination of tools. This is because Nick focuses on the concepts and processes, not the tool itself. That is a rare quality. This deeply thoughtful approach is why I have committed to using LYAI.
I've been grappling with how to utilize AI in a way that supports all that is important to me. No longer! I'm confident the LYAI system is an excellent solution for me based on my previous experience with Nick Milo and the Linking Your Thinking Team.
Linking Your AI is an amazing product. The course is excellent and gets you up and running quickly. The skills that help you build other skills enhance your productivity significantly. I have easily built video transcription skills. Meeting Summary Skills and I've really been enjoying the Daily Brief that is turning into a concept management system. I can't recommend it more highly.
This is a great launch. Nick Milo and Team already had a great product and paradigm in Linking Your Thinking. They have figured out the positive aspects of AI as well as the challenges and enhanced the system to allow productive use of this incredible new tool without losing control. We have just seen with Fable how important it is to maintain a tight leash on your AI resources. I’m looking forward to a mix of local and cloud resources which I can switch on and off as I need. The best is yet to come!
LYAI has really opened up my eyes to possibilities... For instance, extracting skills from the AI assistant itself. This alone is going to be a key differentiator for me as I continue to try different AI tools for work and personal productivity.
It gives me the benefit of AI interaction with the privacy of owning my information. It has really helped me to own my ideas and process them...Better visibility on things I'm resistant to working on and better (deeper / more original) thinking.
I love it more every day I use it.
I've collected AI notes for over a year, but was afraid to commit to any AI system. LYAI shows that you don't need to, indeed should NOT, commit to any particular vendor.
LYAI is an exceptional product. Within 3 hours I had an AI system working WITH me on my notes.
While Claude is not, yet, my best bud, it is no longer triggering my "Stranger Danger" buttons. :)
I'm a relatively recent convert to the LYT universe and am so glad that I am. It's helped me organize my material and operate more efficiently. I've followed Nick's guidance connecting my vault to my AI OS to establish my content factory alongside my content repository, and it's been transformational for me.
But for me, the most memorable and meaningful thing about stumbling upon LYT has been interacting with the humans behind it. I'm unemployed and need to be mindful of how I invest. The LYT team has been most accomodating and flexible, and that's something that I'll never forget.
This is not your average course on AI! As with everything I have seen from Nick, this is a course that is deliberate, considered and will continue to provide value long after (AI fashion of the moment) is gone. The course gives you the tools you need to start getting results straight away. And, the skills you need to continue to grow and develop your AI assets, independent of any specific tool, for years to come.
It is an incredibly welcoming community that offers support regardless of what your specific circumstances, and wants from AI, are. For me the Linking Your AI course (combined with my Obsidian Vault that has been heavily shaped by Nicks work) has helped me go deep on figuring out how to pace and manage long term mobility problems. It has helped me pull out the necessary data so that my GP and I could figure out a medication plan (that has already made the world of difference). It has helped me work through the knots and get unstuck when it come to trying to build an online business. It has helped me free up so much time and energy that I am excited to learn, write and pick up creative projects again.
This course offers so much more than simple AI for productivity and marketing (though if these are your goals I am certain you will find plenty of value here). The approach is one that genuinely allows AI to become a thinking partner; not a replacement brain, and to work with what matters to you;not just to the capitalist machine.
LYAI has helped me in more ways than I expected.
At the most practical level, it has helped me stay organized. But the bigger value has been in giving me a clear framework for thinking about AI, knowledge management, and repeatable workflows.
As a cybersecurity professional helping introduce AI into a corporate environment, I often work with users who are still trying to understand where tools like OpenAI, Anthropic, Obsidian, and personal knowledge systems fit into their day-to-day work. LYAI has given me language and structure I can actually use with them. It takes the base concept and makes it applicable, not just for personal organization, but for real professional use cases.
I was originally introduced to Obsidian, and Linking Your Thinking expanded what I could do with it dramatically. I have been prompt engineering since 2023, but outside of isolated project instructions in ChatGPT Business, I never had a clean or consistent place to keep recurring prompts. I also did not quite know what to call them. LYAI gave those prompts a natural home in the middle layer of the system, which immediately made the whole workflow feel more intentional.
The built-in courier concept has also been especially helpful. I work across multiple vaults, or as I tend to think of them, multiple domains. That structure helps me move useful context where it belongs while keeping my primary knowledge bases relevant, organized, and properly isolated.
More broadly, LYT has changed the way I think about collecting, processing, and finalizing information. Like a lot of people working in research-heavy spaces, I deal with a constant flood of notes, drafts, references, ideas, and unfinished work. LYAI has helped me move from data overload into a system where my works in progress actually have somewhere to live and a path toward completion.
Thank you for all you do. Whether it is the innovation on the AI side, or simply giving clear terms and structure to systems I had already been loosely building across multiple LLMs, LYAI has helped me turn scattered workflows into something much more deliberate, useful, and sustainable.
I'm only 50% into the LYAI course and it's already changed the way I engage with AI. I have a set of new skills, I'm building new routines – and I've thought through how I want to integrate AI into my note-making & sense-making.
This level of intentionality is so rare in AI related content. For anything put out by @nickmilo and the LYT team, it's a recurring differentiator. All of their offerings go deep and wide, they're philosophical and immediately practical – a stunning and super helpful combination.
Applied to LYAI, this means: you get systems and skills that work out-of-the-box, and you get the background knowledge and confidence to customise AI to your needs. You truly get the fish and learn how to catch your own.
By the way, no need to use Obsidian. I've tried and tested those skills with Capacities and Craft, and they work beautifully with minimal adaptations.
LYAI is definitely one of the best systems in the world. I’ve been building my AI-assisted second brain for over three years, and this is the first time I’ve had one with real consistency.
Previously, I approached everything in small blocks—work cells that were highly functional on their own. But when I tried to see the bigger picture, it just didn’t work as well.
Nick and his team have created something remarkable, and LYAI has clearly helped me build a system that works both at the micro and macro levels. I was able to leverage much of my accumulated knowledge, and LYAI helped me structure it so I can continue using it in the present and into the future.
You don’t realize the power of a well-built second brain until you experience it—and once you do, there’s no going back.. I'm really impressed on how Nick and his team have created this
I’m really excited for this launch. After learning from @nickmilo ‘s content for a long time, I finally took two of his courses last year (the WOW writing course and LYT) and I’m still going back through them because of how generously over-packed they are with insights, frameworks, and actionable tools. He shared his early AI systems thinking with us in LYT so I’m already confident that this launch will be the next brilliant offering from him and his genuinely wonderful human team.
Hi everyone! My name's Chris, and I'm a member of the LYT Team ✌️
I first entered the Linking your Thinking ecosystem through Notemaking Mastery as a student (did you read in @nickmilo's post how a foundational version of this course is included as a bonus if you purchase Linking your AI through Monday? 👀). What struck me then has become clearer the longer I've been part of this community: Nick's frameworks don't just live inside of one product. The way you structure your notes becomes the way you structure your thinking, your conversations, your systems.
Linking your AI fits into that same coherent philosophy: all the pieces of the puzzle are meant to work together and are designed for that purpose. Other commenters like @rosemary_purr , @jodine & @celineclemi have mentioned experiencing this as well. Just as we want our notes to be connected — because connection creates expansive thinking, not just storage — the products in this ecosystem are connected in the same spirit. Each one reinforces and extends the others.
If you're here because you're curious about Linking Your AI, I'd say you're not just buying a product. I was a student of a single course, then a member of the Accelerator, and now a member of the Team. I've seen it in more ways than one: you're stepping into an approach to thinking that compounds. And if you're already in the ecosystem somewhere, this is a natural next thread to pull.
So glad you're here — ask us anything! 🌿
Hi everyone, Keaton here from the LYT Team! 👋
What I love about Linking Your AI is that early on, Nick is already sharing and showing skills and systems that are included and getting hands-on on how he uses them each regularly. You not only get a better understanding of when they might support your own workflows, but you begin to see how you might personalize the skill or system further or even ideas on creating some of your own! Do you have a favorite system? I'd love to hear about it! 😃
Another great part of Linking Your AI is that your assistant is built to grow and adapt with you and across AI tools. Models change, AI company privacy policies get revised, whatever the reason to move or even just experiment with other AI tools, you're easily able to with LYAI.
Finally, Linking Your AI meets you where you're at. We've had LYAI owners who were quite new to AI tools find Nick's step-by-step guidance exactly what they needed to connect their AI tool to the other important apps and tools in their daily lives–on their terms. For those who have already started building something similar on their own, many purchasers have found Nick's skills and systems very complementary to their own as they integrate some of Nick's structure into their process and use other parts for inspiration to build out more of their own skills in the future!
As always, it's been incredible seeing the response so far. 🙌
Thank you all for being here supporting this launch! Here we go!
I'm excited about Linking Your AI! I purchased LYT's Ideaverse Pro to help me organize all my random notes on my computer into Obsidian - and this new level of organization has been a game changer for me!
What I liked most about Ideaverse was how easy it was to implement. It's extremely well documented within the application itself and has an additional online course to help anyone get super comfortable with it.
Based on what I've seen of LYT's products through the years as well as within the various courses I've personally invested in, I know that Linking Your AI will do what it's said to do and will be super easy to implement, learn, and use in my daily life.
Thanks Nick and team for another wonderful product - so excited to see this released!!!!!!!
Nick has been a guiding light when it comes to information storage and availability. LYT gave my notes the power to become connected ideas. LYA can only be an accelerator.
