To celebrate @cluely's $15M round by @a16z, we're launching the same thing... for free! Oh, actually, we're completely open-sourcing it too.

Good for them on the marketing front. In fact, despite the criticisms, they're pushing boundaries for one thing. I had always thought of overlays but never implemented them, so it definitely stirred me to act.

So now's the time for us to push further too :)

The core logic is the same as Cluely's:

- Take a screenshot via the Apple SDK
- Transcribe audio in parallel (not added yet)
- Feed it to GPT
- Stream it back

We went even a step beyond and figured out how to do instant OCR in 200ms to generate even better responses. Screen parsing + image.

I haven't added audio yet, as I don't attend meetings and have been busy building something else.

However, I'm sure that if someone can Venmo me $300, we can create an open-source bounty to add it in.

I'll add the links in the comment below, check them out, and I'm pumped to be alive at this time in history.

@cocoyaly @cluely @a16z what's the next evolution after capitalism? AI-ism? 🤔

I guess in the meantime pls follow @tejasthesharma, I have written the pass down on my butt this time .-.

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@ratwell0x yep and lmk feedback requests :P

[Taayjus @taayjus]

Can open source really win?

Not sure if we should go all in on building a great product and keeping it free VS maintaining open source

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@oceanmoist @cluely @im_roy_lee Hey built an open source version and happy to collaborate with you :)

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@DevSwayam @im_roy_lee Yes you can, you just build something amazing and amazing and amazing... and a hidden feature that I'm not gonna disclose rn :)

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@bramk @cluely @a16z I'm the builder of this, can you intro me to @a16z's biggest rival? I would like to raise $50 bucks and a cup of coffee

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@FieldKlein @chrisgpt Actually the moat has always been the same: build something insane that even if you told them what you did, it would take 2 years to do: @figma @NotionHQ etc

Cluely is like Gamestop

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@MuslimSoftware @chrisgpt Hey yea that was because I made a mistake of posting unsigned version admist the hype

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@DanielTerreroC @chrisgpt Actually it took a lot of tweaking, @AnthropicAI is not that good for Swift and @OpenAI o3 was decent for some bug fixes

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@Addiedesignco @chrisgpt They won't that's why we have

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@chrisgpt hey thats me, now who's @a16z's biggest rival? give me 50 bucks to build a positive, open source version of Cluely

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@BugNinza hey, that's me

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@BoilingPb @redifrasheri @01xJosh @iannuttall Yeah thats why I'm taking the positive route and keeping it open source and also have an idea for empowering people but don't want Cluely to copy that rn so won't disclose

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@rishabhjava ive heard of bullmq for one

Woa 429 upvotes on @Reddit , the powaaar of nerds!

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@nestersk @iannuttall Yeah, first to market advantage. But @peterthiel is a big fan of last mover's advantage.

And in my last company, we lost to the 3rd mover, who reverse engineered my AI algo + raised funds + did SEO / business / paid ads / Forbes

(see https://t.co/UeSSyQs9wp vs Undetectable AI)

[Taayjus @taayjus]

@nestersk @iannuttall Nah even before funding, he did a great job going viral. Funding was the boost
