Salam Alaikum everyone!

Hope you're all doing well!

I built a simple Muslim app (I don't want to disclose what it is yet), but I need around 15 people to test it for me for 14 days. It's one of the requirements from Google to be able to publish the app (needs 12 testers for 14 days). I promise it's not a controversial app or anything that has to do with religious debates. It's a VERY simple app for tasbeeh.

Is anyone interested in trying it out? Just need to use it for no more than 5 seconds each day (and I bet you'll use it more than that once you see it).

If anyone's interested, please drop or DM me your e-mail and I'll add you to the testers list and send you the link to become a tester and download.

In return, I'll give you free life-time access to the app.

Thank you!!

i built this so i'll say that upfront, i'm the developer and you should read everything below knowing that.

disclaimer first because it matters: this doesn't treat brain fog. it doesn't touch whatever's causing it and it's not a substitute for talking to a doctor about symptoms, just a workaround

what it actually does is let you get a thought out of your head fast. you speak it or type it or screenshot it, and that's the whole thing, you don't title it or file it or tag it. takes about four seconds. afterwards it reads what you saved, gives it a title and a short summary written back to you, and links it to older things that relate to it. later you can just ask it questions in plain language instead of trying to remember where you put something or what you were even thinking about on tuesday.

the reason i think it might be relevant here is cognitive offloading. there's a study where people memorised a word list and then did mental arithmetic, and the ones who were allowed to save the list somewhere first solved more arithmetic problems. the benefit showed up on the unrelated task as opposed to only on remembering the list. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31418314/

i'd rather be honest about where that stops though. those studies were run on healthy people, mostly students, in a lab. nobody has tested any of this on people whose cognition is affected by illness. so the mechanism makes sense for this group but it hasn't been shown for this group, and i'm not going to pretend otherwise.

iphone only, and not in the EU yet. there's a free trial with no "add your card" or "signup first and remind me to cancel"

i don't have independent reviews to point you at. it's new and anything i could quote would be my own, so it wouldn't mean much. if you try it and it's no use for this, saying so here would help the next person more than anything i could write.

if any of you guys find it helpful just lmk, i am more than willing to give an extended free trial for a few months if you feel it helps out

I launched my first app on iOS a few days ago. are these stats good or am i underperforming so far? I mostly did organic marketing for these results

Whatsup everyone

So just here to share the coins im interested in atm, and share some thoughts about the market

Ive been in crypto since 2017 and my first ever purchase was xrp (never touching that again)

Made a ton of money in 2020-2021, took profit, market dipped 15%, i went all in again, and it didnt stop dropping 😂

Im an alt guy so dont own any btc atm - i like to play high risk, and so far this past run its been mostly btc dominated

Alts im into

I do alot of research and my top 3 alts now are $KAS $TAO and $TIBBIR (though tibbir is a bit low liquidity)

I think $KAS has potential to overthrow several major altcoins, and could pull a zec-style run soon especially now that the winklevoss twins are acknowledging kas

Its devs are insanely good and crypto og’s, i have high hopes in kas

Tao i think most of you know it - AI hype, so I’m riding it

Tibbir is a stealth launched project by Ribbit Capital (they didnt confirm it but way too much evidence). I feel it could play a massive role in the Virtuals ecosystem soon

What coins are you mostly into and what hidden gems are you invested in?

Hey r/founder

I'm Sanad, solo founder building Corteks - an app that aims to replicate your mind, learn from it, and allow you to explore and speak to it.

website www.corteks.app

https://preview.redd.it/nynr8h5q7jkh1.png?width=2940&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4cffdc6f04d43fa53068f823a8144a60eb52c60

The problem Corteks tries to solve

You know how you get these random thoughts, ideas and inspirations at the most inconvenient times (mid shower, at work, in a meeting...etc.) and you want to remember them? You'd usually write them in notes, or take a screen shot or picture in your gallery, but they just die there.

Corteks allows you to enter that thought, literally dump it in, and you let Corteks do the rest (summarizing, categorizing, filing, analyzing, linking to other thoughts, detecting patterns, generating insights, linking to objectives, visualizing, and guiding you on what to focus on and do next).

Visualization

The app also gives you a cool weekly reading, then a weekly story of your thoughts.

Weekly Story Sample (not full story)

The app will be paid:

- $9.99 / month

- $79.99 / annual

In the next 3 days, to (pre) celebrate the launch, I want to pick 33 (my special number) of users who sign up to the waitlist three months free membership (there's also the default 10 days free when downloading the app). What you get with the three months:

- Unlimited thoughts entry (by voice, text or image)

- Unlimited thoughts linking and pattern detection

- Unlimited Corteks chat (ask your mind anything)

- Two weekly readings (Wednesday and Sunday) explaining your thinking patterns, what's been worrying you, what to focus on, what you've been avoiding... etc. no fluff, straight up honest talk based on the thoughts you log

Thank you!

Hey everyone! My app Corteks should be approved in the next 2-3 days. Would really appreciate it if you give it a try and tell me what you think about it.

Context - think of it like Obsidian but in your pocket, and mainly for your thoughts. You can log anything in it but it's designed for your thoughts. You know how you get random thoughts while driving, in the shower, sometimes in the office, while walking... anywhere and you don't want to lose them? You type them in your notes app but forget to get back to it, or take screen shots of something that inspired you and its gone? Well, Corteks you drop yoru thoughts in by voice (you can do text and images as well), and leave the rest for the app (it reads, summarizes, categorizes, tags it with a theme, links it to other thoughts, links it to your objectives, finds patterns, generates insights, and supports you in what you need to do to achieve your objectives given how you think - all this is visualized on your mind's node graph so it creates a replica of your mind in the app)

Let me know what you think! will sen you guys a 2 month free coupon once the trial ends (don't worry, the trial is literally just a trial, you don't commit to any payments or subscriptions until after the trial is over you are asked IF you want to

Woke up at 4am today and couldn’t get back to sleep… then I checked my DM and saw one of my apps beta testers telling me that him and his wife were having a serious argument and my app actually helped them resolve it in a couple of hours whereas usually it would take them days to resolve

Now my day feels bright and my energy levels are through the roof

Crazy how something so simple can make such a huge difference

Hey everyone! Happy to hear what you think about this blog post. I know many of us face the same challenge:

The thought arrives in the shower, in the car, halfway through an argument. By the time you could write it down it has gone, and you are left with the shape of it and none of the content.

The particular cruelty is that you can still remember it was good. You know roughly what it was about. You know it connected two things you had never put together before. What you cannot do is reconstruct it, and the harder you chase it the further away it gets.

Most advice about this is about remembering harder. That advice is aimed at the wrong problem, which is why so little of it works.

Hey everyone,

Over thinker here - was sick and tired of losing my thoughts, inspirations and the things that get my mind going (writing in notes was useless, taking screen shots of stuff would take them to the gallery graveyard)

so I built Corteks - speak your thoughts into it and let Corteks do the rest (summarize, categorize, tag with theme, link to each other, find patterns, link to objectives, give you insights and suggestions). basically answers "what have i been avoiding" "what do i think about the most" "when do i think the most" "when do my fears come out the most?" "when am i most creative" "what should i focus on" "what patterns do you see in my thinking?"

If anyone's interested to join on testflight (currently under review), here ya go https://testflight.apple.com/join/Af3djsGd (need your feedback please!)

Hey everyone!

I'm looking to get some feedback from people who are actively using productivity apps. I built an app for people who are over thinkers (like myself). My brain literally fires the entire time, I can't get past reading 2-3 pages of a book without a million thoughts and inspirations getting into my head. I end up reading 10 pages without noticing meanwhile my brain is still thinking about that one point that really stuck in my head.

I don't want to lose the thoughts, so I built an app called corteks - it's purpose is to DUMP every single thought you get (by voice, by text or image that inspires you). The AI reads it, summarizes, categorizes, and links it to all your other thoughts in a mind-map, starts finding patterns and uses that data to align your thoughts to your objectives (and also propose new objectives).

https://preview.redd.it/4bjury0j9jjh1.png?width=2248&format=png&auto=webp&s=0038cfab9686a12cefd350c0532f610c68fd9fbb

Twice a week the app gives you a reading (summarized one on Wednesday, detailed story-view one on Sunday). This includes the topics you've been thinking about the most, the times you think the most (days and hours), the types /day/hour, what you've been avoiding, what you keep circling back to, what's been worrying you, what you need to focus on, and proposes actions and new objectives to set and focus on.

The app is under review (iOS, appstoreconnect) so I can't give the download link yet. HOWEVER, if anyone is interested in trying it, drop your e-mail and I'll add you as a tester on testflight. The pay-wall is there for publishing purposes but don't worry about it (1 - there's no commitment, it's a free trial without any payment, and 2 - once the trial ends, just LMK and i'll send you a coupon to continue using it).

I got some TikTok videos posted about it aswell just for some marketing (I'm trying a bunch of different approaches - some serious, some meme-based), so would also appreciate your input on the page so far. Some are blowing up a bit, others meh.

Hey everyone!

Soooo, I'm the type who thinks ALOT. I can't get past 2-3 pages of a book without my mind thinking of tens of new ideas or starting to question everything I know. My mind fires-off big time and I get inspired VERY easily. The difficult part is that I want to remember all these thoughts, so I usually write them in a notes app or take screen shots or pictures, but they always end up in my gallery or a notes app that I only open mid-flight (then forget about it when we land).

So I built an app, called it Corteks. Basically a dumpster for your thoughts. Literally all you need to do is voice record your thought (or type it / upload an image if you want). Corteks reads it, analyzes, summarizes, categorizes, detects patterns, links your thoughts to each other, to your objectives, maps your thoughts into a mind graph and generates insights and a weekly story.

I just submitted the app to the AppStore so was interested to see what you'd think about it.

www.corteks.app

There's a bunch of features but my favorites are the thoughts getting linked to objectives and the weekly story (see video below). the weekly story is heavy because it tells you what you've been thinking about the most, when you do your thinking (days and times), how they're linked, what you've been avoiding, what you need to focus on (all in relation to your recorded objectives), and may even propose a new objective for you to focus on based on what you've been thinking about. It asks critical questions to help guide your focus too. You can always chat with Cortek's AI (Corpus) and ask it anything "what have I been avoiding" "what do I need to focus on the most"...etc.

Your Week in Thoughts - Corteks Weekly Story

I'm also going to be adding a feature where in the filter (or when you search through your thoughts), you can simply select the thoughts that appear and request an analysis to see if there's any kind of pattern that can be detected between those specific thoughts and themes. It already does it to thoughts that are more obvious, but this new feature is purely for thoughts that you select.

Since it hasn't been launched yet, I created a waiting list for whoevers interested in trying it (would really appreciate getting input if any of you are heavy productivity or journaling app users). There's an automatic one week trial (actually 8-9 days if you start using it on a Saturday or Sunday), but I will also send out a coupon code to anyone who joins the waitlist now and provides feedback once the app is launched.

Really looking forward to hearing what you think about it!
