The Problem and The Pitch
Note taking is great. But how do you refer back to knowledge when you need it most? 🤔
How do you search for saved knowledge like meeting notes 🗒️, membership numbers 🛬, your friend's favorite restaurant 🥗, or that travel recommendation your work buddy 🧑💼 had made?
Mem is the ⚡ fastest way to capture, connect, and recollect information. Mem is your second brain. On steroids. 🚀
It is probably the front runner in the next generation 🔮 of personal productivity apps. It It is one of the apps I'm most looking forward to in 2022! 🎉 It has the potential to be a key part of the productivity meta layer.
What's special?
Mem is like a superpower. The list of standout features is seemingly endless:
- ⚡ Blazing fast information capture across desktop and phone (now: WhatsApp; coming soon: mobile app). You rarely need to leave the app you're working in. You can take notes as you read an article or while on a Zoom call 💻
- 🌐 One click information recall. Its "Mac-like" spotlight feature allows you to resurface information while using any app. Super helpful in meetings, recollecting reference numbers, and newsletter takeaways!
- 🗃️ No need to organize notes. It is as simple as Apple Notes/Evernote, but you DON'T need to put notes in folders. They magically link to each other and provide additional context
- 😌 Extremely low learning curve (a massive boon as compared to tools like Roam Research)
- 📬 Ever growing list of integrations → you can forward any mail or upload any file to Mem and Mem remembers it for you. And you can search anything you've uploaded via natural language
What's more? They have a 🤯 mind-blowing pace of development. So much so that Mem is now a core part of Lenny Rachitsky's note taking process (even though they're in early beta)
