Stop the Brain Melt: How AI Can Save You 730 Hours of Content Overload a Year

We ve all been there. You wake up, check your phone, and see "99+" notifications across 50 Telegram channels, 20 newsletters, and a dozen RSS feeds. You dive in "just for a second," and 40 minutes later, you emerge with a headache, high anxiety, and zero actual value. I call this The Brain Melt. I m building Alaqay, and I wanted to share why our current way of consuming information is fundamentally broken and how we re fixing it. 1. The Math of Chaos Let s look at the numbers. If you follow 50 channels and spend just 2 minutes on each, that s 100 minutes a day. That is 730 hours a year. You are spending one full month of your life every year just scrolling through noise. Most of that content is irrelevant, yet we consume it because of FOMO. 2. Why Your Current Tools Are Failing You Tools like Pocket or Instapaper are great, but they require work. You have to find, save, and organize. Aggregators like Feedly just give you a longer list to scroll through. The problem isn't a lack of tools; it s Decision Fatigue. Every time you decide whether to click a link, you burn cognitive fuel. By noon, you're mentally exhausted without having done any real work. 3. Enter Alaqay: Your AI Chief of Staff We believe you shouldn't have to "manage" your information. Alaqay (meaning "Hooray!" or a cry of joy) acts as your personal filter. Instead of 100 separate posts, Alaqay: Analyzes all your sources in the background. Learns your specific interests and professional needs. Synthesizes everything into a single, cohesive 5-minute narrative. 4. The Goal: An Information Diet We re moving from "Information Overload" to a curated "Information Diet." Imagine starting your day with a clear, personalized briefing that tells you exactly what happened in your world no noise, no distractions, just the signal. I d love to hear from the community: How many channels/newsletters are you currently subscribed to? Do you actually read them, or are they just "digital clutter"? I'm opening up early access soon let s reclaim those 2 hours a day together!

Stop chasing features. Start chasing "Utility" (My 2026 Manifesto) 🚀

The game has changed. In 2026, nobody cares about another "AI Wrapper" or a tool that has 100+ features but solves zero real problems. I m starting my journey on Product Hunt today with a simple rule: Build for pain, not for hype. Here is what I ve noticed analyzing the Top-3 products of this week: 1. Simplicity wins: The leaders are stripping away UI, focusing on one-click solutions. 2. Speed is the UI: If it s not instant, it s broken. 3. Community feedback: They aren't just shipping; they are talking to us in the comments. I am starting from zero, but my goal is to document every step of building a product that people actually need daily. No fluff, just pure utility. My question to the community: What is one "boring" problem in your daily workflow that you wish an app would solve once and for all? I ll be reading every comment and taking notes for my future build! #buildinpublic #startup #growth
