Hi Product Hunt community! 👋
I’m a multi-disciplinary indie hacker. Over the past 20 years, I’ve jumped from 3D animation and cinematic VFX to running a physical design brand. My domain changed constantly, but my obsession remained the same: turning raw ideas into reality.
The Problem:
As a solo builder running multiple projects, brilliant ideas and random tasks constantly pop into my head while working on my computer. But whenever I opened a heavy Notion page or a calendar tab to write them down, that 1-second friction killed my flow. I ended up losing so many good sparks just because capturing them was a chore.
The Solution:
I got tired of losing my thoughts, so I coded WID for myself. It’s a dead-simple Chrome extension. You hit Alt + 1, type whatever raw thoughts are in your head in 0.5 seconds, and hit enter.
Behind the scenes, AI parses the context and cleanly delivers it to your Google Calendar and Tasks. With the new era of Google Gemini’s personalization, I realized that feeding my Google ecosystem with these raw, unedited logs is the ultimate way to build my smart personal AI knowledge base.
WID is 100% free and built with custom AI automation. This is my very first software launch here, and staring at 0 downloads feels a bit lonely! 🥲
I would absolutely love your brutal feedback, feature requests, or any thoughts on how you capture your ideas.
Thank you for hunting WID! 🚀

WID V1.1.0 is officially launched on the Chrome Web Store! 🚀
After analyzing our initial launch, we realized we made a critical mistake: asking users to provide their own Gemini API keys. It was a massive onboarding barrier. We’ve removed that friction entirely.
Key Updates in V1.1.0: • Zero-Friction Onboarding: Start using WID instantly with our trial key—no API key generation required. • Smart Push Notifications: Fixed Calendar timezone offsets for precise "15-min & 1-hour before" popups. Added `due` date integration for Google Tasks so your native smartphone apps will trigger deadlines perfectly. • Data safety: Added a clean Local Backup (JSON Export/Import) feature.
