I started note-taking and journaling in 2023 and since then, I have been quite consistent, writing all new experiences, learnings, experiments, emotions and work related stuff.
After 2.5 years, this is how my RoamResearch network graph looks like:
From time to time, I also like to go back to my notes and learnings to find insights that could help me in the present situation. Given the quantum of notes, it was becoming time consuming to get to the note exactly.
This is why, I decided to create a chat assistant that takes all my notes in real time from the backup stored locally and help me chat with them.
You can select the back up folder. Once done, it analyses the notes and patterns and gives you a window to chat:
Features:
- Chat with notes: Ask questions in plain English about any topic in your notes
- Pattern Recognition: Identifies emotional patterns, behavioral insights, and evolution of your thinking over time
- Smart Search: Finds people, companies, and concepts across entire note collection using AI-powered semantic search
- Real-time Sync: Automatically processes new notes as I add them to Roam
- Privacy-First: Everything runs locally on your computer
Technology Stack: Built with Electron (Node.js + JavaScript) for cross-platform desktop functionality, integrated with OpenAI GPT-4 for AI-powered conversations, featuring a modern HTML/CSS/JavaScript frontend with local file processing and real-time markdown parsing.
Built for privacy, powdered by AI, designed for discovery!
Feel free to reach out in case you use RoamResearch and would want to try this out!
