Goldfish - Press Option. It knows your work and replies like you

by
Most AI tools make you explain the context before they can help. Goldfish already has it. It privately remembers what you’ve been working on across your Mac, then helps you write better from any app. Press Option in a text field to draft replies, summarize threads, rewrite sentences, or recall important details from your recent work without copying, pasting, or re-explaining the whole backstory.

Congratz with the launch guys!!

@benjaminbekken Thank you so much Benjamin! :- D

Been using Goldfish for a while now and the cross-app context is what really clicks.

Not having to copy paste threads, docs, emails, tabs, or explain the same project again every time removes so much friction. Option key in any text field feels like the right interface for this.

Big congrats on the launch Joel and Kaspian 🐠

@oskar13 Thank you for the early support Oskar, I'm truly truly grateful 🫶☺️

you're one of the people who really got Goldfish early, and seeing you use it this much has been insane. thank you for backing us 🐠

Filip Engström

Haven’t tried it yet but downloading it right now, super curious to see this in action. Been looking for a smarter AI tool with a better memory. Congrats on the launch 🐠🔥

Joel Edholm

@filip_engstrom thanks Filip, really curious what you think once you’ve tried it. Smarter memory is exactly the hill we’re trying to climb 🐠 Let us know how it goes!

Kaspian Jakobsson

@filip_engstrom thanks Filip! would be super curious to hear what you think once you’ve tried it 🐠

The Option-key workflow feels smart because it keeps AI inside the place you’re already writing. Curious how Goldfish decides which recent context should matter and which old context should fade out.

Kaspian Jakobsson

@farrukh_butt1 Very good question! We keep a buffer of the most recent-recent context which gets embedded with each option-click, but when it makes sense Goldfish can also search way back into the long term memory, but often the most recent memory is enough.

Have you tried it yet? What do you think? :)

Huge congrats on the launch 🐠

What really lands for me is that Goldfish shows up exactly where the work is happening. I’ve been using it to write and rewrite emails and LinkedIn messages, but also to make sense of complex topics while I’m reading through them at the same time. That cross-app context is the thing that turns AI from a separate chatbot into something genuinely useful in the flow of work.

The onboarding was super smooth too, and the local-first memory with explicit privacy controls feels essential for a product that sits this close to messy, sensitive work.

Excited to keep using it and see where it goes!

Joel Edholm

@m_jacquillat thank you Marie, really appreciate this. the cross-app bit is the whole reason we built it this way, and privacy has to be first-class when the product is sitting this close to real work 🐠

Kaspian Jakobsson

@m_jacquillat Thank you so much!! The cross-app part is exactly where it starts feeling less like a chatbot and more like part of the OS.

do you feel it gets the context wrong sometime? would love to learn more!

I’ve been using Goldfish daily for a month: it’s one of those tools you don’t realize you needed until you can’t imagine working without it. No more copy-pasting Slack threads into a chatbot just to get context. Press Option and it already knows what’s going on.

The tone adaptation is the killer feature for me. Writes like me on Slack, like me on email, without any setup. And everything stays local, which matters.

Congrats on the launch team 🐠

@faustin_havard thank you faustin, this means a lot coming from you! 🐠

Shubham Bhattacharji

Love the Option key shortcut, feels so friction less. How does it handle privacy with remembering work across apps? That balance of helpful and private is the hard part to get right. Excited to try it.

Kaspian Jakobsson

@shubham4real Thanks Shubham! Privacy is the main thing we designed around here.

Goldfish stores memory locally on your Mac, not in a cloud backend we can browse. You can pause capture whenever you want, exclude specific apps or domains, and delete stored history too. AI calls also have zero data retention.

That balance is definitely the hard part, so would love to hear where it feels too much or not enough once you try it 🐠

Do you guys have an instagram account?

@hayeeisme yes we do! get_goldfish. follow for extra access!

Azouzi

Love the concept, and the design looks 🔥

I currently use Claude for this, and it's such a life upgrade, this looks like the next level.

Kaspian Jakobsson

@azouzidesign thank you so much! trying to lean into Liquid Glass while maintaining our own style!

Feel free to try it out and see what you love and hate about it! would love to learn more! 🙏

Bibin Mathew

Congratulations on the launch, team! I’m curious: are you using Goldfish to help draft your replies to all these comments today?

Kaspian Jakobsson

@bibin765 haha yes, very much so. this is basically the perfect stress test for it 🐠

sometime I edit stuff and press option again, but mostly goldfish can one shot most!

have you tried it yet?
