It's definitely not the first, that's kind of a weird and also fundamentally hard to prove claim.

Also, I'm still not entirely sure why this is any better than other solutions. The landing page has a remarkable lack of information. At face value it sounds like spyware, if I wanted to assume malintent.

Originally, Remind was supposed to be called Recall AI, a project I have been working on since last December. However, last week I was watching a video about the new Copilot+ laptops and noticed they featured the same functionality with the same name. So, I decided to open-source the project, rename it to Remind, and publish the landing page as quickly as possible. The reason I believe Remind will be better than other solutions is that it will be completely local, free, and private for users. I provided a demo, a link to the GitHub repository with all the code, and some information on how I implemented the solution. Since I launched it quickly, the site is obviously rushed, but you can check the public code—it is not a spyware at all. Although I'm just at the beginning, it already looks quite promising compared to existing paid and non-private solutions.

Wow, it must have been pretty intense feelings seeing Microsoft reveal exactly the same thing that you've been working on for months. Would you like to share what you experienced and how you coped with it?

Honestly, I don't even know if it's a coincidence or done on purpose. Initially, I'm just a simple developer who shared my bugs on Reddit and other platforms to find solutions to my problems. When I saw that Microsoft had the same functionality and the same name, my first thought was that there was no point in continuing this project because I would never be able to compete with them. Originally, I wanted to launch on June 27th, and I talked about this situation on Reddit. That's when I received a lot of feedback, which really warmed my heart. So, I decided to open-source my project, create a landing page in two days, and now I'm gradually building the project and making it publicly available for everyone.

Not to sound rude, but isn't this exactly what Rewind.ai does since a couple of years?

Yes, it's similar to RewindAI. I was inspired by them :) I mentioned this and listed them as inspirations on Product Hunt. However, I'm aiming to create a local ecosystem, and this is just the beginning. I have a lot of ideas in mind (but little time), so I'm progressing day by day.
