Even "vanilla" tldraw is super cool as a clean, functional, open-source html5 whiteboard, and the team have absolutely been killing it in their comms and use of LLMs. I honestly think they might be some of the most innovative people around when it comes to really novel UI for LLMs. Also, Todepond is just very cool.

And ("vanilla") tldraw supports subpixel font rendering, unlike most of their competition (for example excalidraw or Miro).

THIS is it.

I have been using tldraw with one of my friends or even generally when my whiteboard marker goes down and I wish to draw.

Seriously tldraw makes sharing whiteboards so easier as compared to excalidraw and others.

TLDRAW deserves more attention than excalidraw and I watched its demo video and

holy moly , this is so crazy , the fact that this can create semi websites and etc. feels so cool , definitely going to try it

tldr: needs email to play with it

I think its decent considering it requires money , and even chatgpt in its early stages didn't allow for anonymous chats / unlimited chats and I remember going on all these chatgpt clones becuase of that.

I also understand the hilarious spin that you added considering tldr (too long didn't read) lmao. but still its worth your email.

Crazy how I realised that tldr meme after I had written the first paragraph

I ended up at Tldraw's London office a few weeks ago for a thing, and I remember afterwards being like 'ahh, now I understand how they end up just casually doing random cool shit and attracting the kind of talent they do'.

They should be extremely proud of the culture they've managed to foster and I genuinely hope to see them succeed as a business.

If I can plug my own API key into this and/or run Llama locally, that'd be great. It reminds me of a tool I saw recently called Heuristica [0]. Would like to try it but I don't like being tied to a subscription and the free plan seems quite limited if I can't even plug my own key in. Don't see why this can't do what Heuristica does! :) [0] https://www.heuristi.ca/

Hey there! Thanks for mentioning Heuristica. I would love to find out how to make the free plan for Heuristica to be more permissive (without destroying the incentive to subscribe for willing users). Feel free to send me your suggestions. At one point, I also worked on making it work with a personal API key. However, this added a lot of complexity. It felt like I was building and maintaining two separate branches of…

Hey! To be honest, I am not sure my feedback would be very valuable. I'm probably your worst type of user -- perma free plan -- simply because I'd only use your tool sporadically. I don't do literature reviews that often, but often enough to think about using a tool like this I suppose.

I totally get it though, it's a difficult thing to balance. If I was doing lit review and deep research daily 6.99 is an amazing deal.

Very much this! I was also at a thing at their office a few weeks ago (some thing? "Local Thirst"), and Steve gave a demo of this. It is incredible.

I've joked before that the last generation of human machine interfaces ware invented at Xerox park, and the next generation is being invented at TLDraw of Finsbury Park. But it's not really a joke, I genuinely believe it.

This would be fantastic as a component for versioning, testing, editing and sharing both simpeler prompting and """agentic ai""" systems!

I see just an email signup thing, can't figure out if i can slap this onto the ai backends I'm building
