I think the first one is kind of weak compared to the other two and I'll probably switch them around.
The idea was to build a simple PKM app where you don't have to waste time fiddling with the app interface itself (as with more general purpose apps). I'm not quite sure this becomes clear though :(
Let me know if you have any ideas!
Hey @ciriousjoker, good job on thinking on how you can trigger emotions.
For my feedback I would say:
The overall feedback is you are heading in the right direction, just need to keep iterating until it is resonating with your target audience. Maybe you could look at reviews for your competitors and see what customers are saying is the value in those apps, then target your copy towards that
Oh hey, Harlan! It's Jack from WorldSkills. Good to see you here!
Thanks a lot!
I couldn't really find a direct competitor though. Maybe explaining how it's different from the obvious choices (Evernote, OneNote, Google Keep, Roam, Notion) would be the way to go.
Thanks again!
This sounds like a great idea :) People using those apps i'd imagine would be the biggest traffic source, so it would be good to orientate them to who you are in relation to what they use.
I've seen a number of products which will create separate pages comparing their products to others, this could be a start to grow your organic source of traffic too, say if people are googling 'google keep alternatives'
Great point I should probably focus on that once the app has matured to stability.
Congrats on your app and building this all out, it's a really neat premise. I didn't read all the comments but I did spend 1 minute on the web page to let your value props and imagery wash over me. The truth is I don't get it, but there's a seed there that feels interesting.
I'm one of those multi-note-taking people where notes sink to the bottom like fishfood in a cloudy aquarium.
I think you need to boil this down to one premise—one that is interesting and unique. It might be enough to simply promise to surface relevant notes based on analysis of your notes over time. Like the notion of a "spaced repetition" algorithm that maybe surfaces your notes based on what you want to keep front of mind. I'm not entirely sure. The copy is pretty wordy. I'm still noodling on this.
Maybe it is something like:
etc. I love this underlying premise though. I'm using Roam now and it partially solves staleness by making recall effortless. But its not assistive or intelligent in any sense. The next frontier in note-taking apps? :D
Thanks a lot for your input!
I think an actually intelligent algorithm based on topics would be kind of difficult. Right now it's Semi-intelligent and just based on how important you rate each piece. More important will surface more often.
A roam integration might be nice, but their api is private atm. :(
I'm not sure which version of the website you saw (screenshot vs real one).
I used "spaced repetition" originally, but shied away from it because people seemed to not know what that term means and explaining it isn't straight forward
The app is cute, not sure how ready it is
For the LP, I like the top, till the action
"A specialized solution" - meaningless and a feature not a benefit.
"Add knowledge in realtime" - the feel is good, but realtime always seems to me abused in digital context, like do I expect to wait while typing for each char like a typewriter?...
"Intelligent feed" - so obscure and the explanation isn't helping much, IDK what that is or why I'd want it..
Thanks for all the great feedback, I really appreciate it!
About landing page:
Again, thanks a lot for your feedback!
So your clearing the source? but the title stays?
The message at the bottom is barely noticeable and disappears too fast ... should be on top.
It seems better than before, I couldn't click the Done before...
So when the thing pops on source, should it be clickable?... same for tag... I kinda expect to click...
I think for the filter I mean the same, I can't click that popup...
For logout it's no so much I'm worried about my side, but about the server side... security wise..
(I also often logout and in on signup related to the password manager, but that's probably just me)
yea I don't have a wording idea at the moment for the real time thing
With feed, I either think like RSS feed (technical) or facebook feed (common).. I'm not sure how it connects here, is this a scroll-able history?
Are you actually more thinking of doing things like google photos of 1 year ago?..
I like the simplicity, speed and flexibility for the USP, I'd call it an upgrade vs using Asana
Yeah, its more geared towards enabling a specific "flow" of managing information rather than having all the bells and whistles of a general purpose mass audience tool
the "saved" message on "Add more"
So there is a single long lived / infinite life token that's available on my system encrypted ... tokens should expire... logout should delete the token and remove the option to guess it and require the pair, that shouldn't be available un-encrypted anywhere...
not wanting to get into a long security discussion, but when you think you are sure of all attack vectors, as anything your sure of in life, surprises would come
Don't fell too much in love with that quirky invention of a feed for a knowledge system... much of this type of info systems might be way more write heavy than read... and like should be..
I was playing around with the idea of higher/lower level summary, which makes it more accessible, so like if you wrote a lot of a particular thing/time, you'd want a shorter higher level thing with links to the details, that makes it more ...
well there are many different types of things that could be written and there by the use of them differs... like if you would have a system focused for students you could 100% customise, knowing the notes have a life cycle, they have entities that make sense like the course and topics within it, and they have a review for tests for example... and it can all be pretty much archived forever when one passes the course, probably never to be looked at again...
Recalling old stuff or getting random notes... like quotes are super condensed in a way and are non connective mostly, these are known to be wanted in a random recollection as one usage pattern.
But as a user I need control on how I want things... that's why the tag system is so good in my opinion, it's the flexibility of anything I want, not what the system decided (which the hardcoded categories are a contrast and conflict too... in a way you need to decide what you are, a flexible system or an opinionated one...)
I agree. Since originally built this just for myself I chose an opinionated design + flexibility, but I'll most likely add custom categories eventually.
