My first problem with this idea (not necessarily this app) is that I don't know that I would want to hand over the control of my prompts to another service. I want to write my own prompts. I also want more control to give it wider context. Right now I'm using a couple of different AI add-ons for Obsidian for this.

Sounds interesting. What add-ons do you use and how do they fit into your workflow? Any use cases in particular seem more valuable than others?

"Smart Connections" and "ChatGPT MD" are the ones I use.

Smart Connections allows you to set Obsidian resources to be embeddings, which GPT can then use as further context.

ChatGPT MD has options for templates, where you can create a note based on a prompt template and then do a "user" and "assistant" back and forth.

In terms of workflow, it's experimental right now. I thought it might be interesting to create an assistant which can read my agenda for the day and act as an accountability partner. Right now, I have to manually run the sequence with a keyboard shortcut. But the plugin could add features such as automatically running every X minutes, and then sending a system notification telling you that it's time to check in.

That it's so experimental, is one reason why I wouldn't bother with a service someone else has already created. I would much rather tinker on my own implementation, which I have much more power over.

I can't say this experiment has been useful yet. Or that I can even see it as having potential. But I'll continue tinkering.
