Selling would be nice, but a lot of solo builders are mainly in it for the building. The note app I wanted didn't exist anywhere. I was close to hiring a contractor to build it, so it's already worth tens of thousands of dollars to me. I want to make a bit off it but not run a real business. No VC, no employees. If it earns enough to pay my own salary, I get to keep building it as my job, which beats most startup exit math. Reaching maybe 100 people with the same problem is the target.

Do you have a link to the note app? Just curious what could make it unique, not criticizing anyone.

Honestly, "note app" is a stretch. What I wanted was a knowledge system modeled on PoIC, a Japanese index-card method that predated Evernote. I tried building it on Obsidian and other markdown tools for years and structured notes never stuck for me. I just wanted to talk into my phone and dump quick fragments, then have something extract knowledge and tasks out of them. LLMs and Claude Code closed most of the gap. Now journals, web clips, and daily deep-think sessions all land in it, and Claude Code semi-solves the tasks it pulls out. I'm probably ADHD and it seems to hit for that crowd. Most people would look at it and say "why not Obsidian" lol.

OSS, with the skill + CLI layer built around Claude Code: https://github.com/rillmd/rill

Mac app at https://rill.md/. Still very much in development. If you give it a spin, I'd love feedback either as a GitHub issue or right here.
