Writing is thinking.

If a bot is writing notes for you, itโ€™s thinking for you. Instead, Granola starts with your notes, and makes them better.

Introducing Granola , the first AI notepad for back-to-back meetings. Donโ€™t stop writing, donโ€™t stop thinking.

Talent, culture, capital, positive regulation but most importantly

DENSITY

You need to bump into ppl all the time - hires, peers, investors, old hands. It has to feel natural.

For community mgr friends:

Portfolio companies keep lamenting โ“„rbit closedown the last few weeks.

Most loved features: community search, listening across community + social, Github integration.

Tracker not a hub.

Are there any Orbit-but-not-Orbit tools out there?!

Yes. It matters that one of the world's most frontier AI companies ignored consent for a big launch.

So many exciting foundational changes happening in technology and society right now. It doesn't help with public trust in AI + progress if this kind of mistake gets made.

GPT-4o coming to augmented desk soon?

If the team at Fermat (โจ) didn't need sleep, this work from 2020 seems very applicable to the 4o

Great thread from Matt, an expertsโ€™ expert, on the vast (vast!) differences between Signal (gold standard for private comms) and Telegram (not private, not secure, but happy to market themselves that way) ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

Niche tweet / For anyone who drives the 280 into SF, whatโ€™s the deal with the house outside Hillsborough that looks like a cartoon & has a NASA shed in the garden?

This is how small funds win.

Common Magic invests in products with community at their core (think; Figma, Github, Hugging Face).
