Having made something similar [0], and having seen a lot of these types of tools, I'll paste a comment I made before [1]:

"""

I've done a lot of research into this calendar/tasks/notes space, how does this compare to

- Sunsama [0]

- Daybridge

- Routine [1]

- Agenda

- NotePlan

- Cron

- TickTick

and the hundreds of others out there?

I've also seen a lot of apps like this shut down over the years, such as Sunrise [2], Woven [3] and more. Personally speaking, I even hesitate to continue on my own app as well because it seems the market is saturated with the same exact idea and style, but it seems that users aren't really that attached to one company for it to generate enough revenue to keep building.

Hi congrats on Artemis, looks very cool! This is indeed a huge and very competitive market with a lot of different solutions. We saw a lot of founders tackling the problem with different approaches leading to structural differences in the tool they develop, so I think that there's actually much space for innovation and improvements! Would love to have your feedback on Akiflow :)
