Slapdash (YC19) - https://slapdash.com - Full-time, Remote At Slapdash, we are building a uniform, low-latency interface to your cloud applications. Think a Spotlight-style command…

OK, we put the finishing touches on the Linux client and it's now available for download. We still have some fit & finish things to improve upon, but it should be quite functional.…

We are lucky to be a funded company with 5 people and couple of years of runway. A pen test costs half the monthly salary of an engineer, so it’s an easy investment to rationalize …

You are right - the “control-your-computer” functionality is currently a subset of Alfred, but we are working on bridging that gap. Most people use Alfred in limited ways, and we t…

That's a really neat idea to be able to search logs quickly. We definitely support building custom commands, but they are super limited today. We have to build the sophisticated co…

Quest looks cool. I just downloaded and started playing with it - well done. Today, we write the integrations ourselves. We will eventually open up our APIs so people can build the…

Exactly right. I have my command set up to open this URL: vscode://file/ The "file" above is important, first time I set it up I missed it and it didn't work correctly.

Cool, thanks for the reports. Will fix.

What do you mean by local installation? Certain products have a desktop app counterpart. For example, Notion, Trello, Figma, etc. Slapdash is aware of those applications and when p…

We don't take security lightly, but we don't do a good job articulating how we safeguard things in the product. We'll fix this - thanks for pushing on it. There are details through…

The reason some apps are not removed after you connect them is that you can connect more than one account. For example, you can connect multiple G-Drive accounts. That said, it's d…

Our onboarding is quite under solved, thanks for putting up with it. If you think of Slapdash as sort of an OS, today Spaces are kind of like folders. You can build them manually, …

Yes, it's almost ready. You can actually download a linux build from: https://download.slapdash.com/ The one thing we have left is fixing auth. We auth in the browser and then open…

Both Slapdash and Command E can search apps, but Slapdash can do other things too: * You can also write to applications, it's not just read-only (create docs, file issues, close ta…

We will publish a comprehensive overview of our approach to security, which I'll link to this thread for posterity. Frankly, we just ran out of time to publish this in time for the…

Yeah, it's SendGrid. Good to know.

We are definitely open to a self-hosted solution, but at the moment we have a small team, so we are trying to keep our engineering surface area manageable. In the near future, we w…

I just checked and it looks like the confirmation email was blocked. One way to unblock is to sign up with a Google account (which won't require the email verification). Otherwise,…

Thanks for the feedback. At the moment, the easiest way to unlock functionality is to connect an app. We will be building a lot of the interesting commands to start, so there shoul…

Here is a sampling of ways I use Slapdash daily. * Open files I know exist without touching the browser[0] * Create new issues without touching the browser * See what my colleagues…

For folks that use are comfortable with using the keyboard, we recommend installing our desktop application. The desktop application adds a global shortcut (Cmd + J) by default, wh…
