KnowledgeOS Beta

In the interest of providing a bit more background... For the past 5 and half years we have been doing a deep dive on how we can better link data across various Apps and systems and we are super excited to introduce ourselves to the PH community. We are deeply interested in collaboratively making (aka “Comaking”) an open protocol and a standard with you all for how data can be easily ingested from anywhere, linked/de-duped/interrelated, stored in one or more databases or knowledge graphs, and then accessed by different systems regardless of the underlying source. Tim Berners Lee gave a TED talk several years ago (https://youtu.be/OM6XIICm_qo) that is somewhat related and makes the case for creating these open standards and the need continues to increase every day! Through our research we have created more than a dozen patents/patents-pending and in the coming weeks and months we will be starting to share and even open source a lot of what we’ve learned and done. We would love to bring you all into this process as we collaboratively invent the future of data-linking for private work. We believe what we are pursuing is fundamentally antithetical to building a closed system or even to pursuing a one-solution-fits-all approach. Especially when more and more of you are releasing products with enterprise / work graphs! We can’t tell you how much we look forward to engaging with all of you on these topics. In light of that, we are also launching a Discord community today to help us foster this community which you can join here: https://discord.gg/qEnRpdTs2v. We are already working on developing more materials to help communicate the vision of KnowledgeOS (https://youtu.be/N_m0nWXeCvY - WIP video), including many of the big breakthroughs that we've had but that are not in the product yet / ready for deployment at scale. We can’t wait to go along for this ride with you all!

@andresegut @adlerfaulkner Congratulations on the launch! KnowledgeOS could be addressing the need-gap: 'I forget my web bookmarks quite often' posted on my problem validation platform - https://needgap.com/problems/57-... . You're welcomed to explain how KnowledgeOS addresses that problem, So those who need it can find it easily.

@adlerfaulkner @abishek_muthian Sure thing - glad you're asking this question. The same applies to more than bookmarks, but really all your work. How do you surface things that need doing, things that you put aside for later, relevant things that have been done. That's a core part of KnowledgeOS. If you bookmark or save anything in KnowledgeOS you don't just save it in one place. Instead it automatically gets connected to a lot of related data such as related App, related data-type, and more. Therefore any time you are looking at something, you can easily see all your related data, including your saved bookmarks!

@mei_lan_tan Thank you Mei Lan! Grateful for your support. In about a month KnowledgeOS will be automatically classifying any architecture precedent you look at and help you keep track of the materials you are researching much more effectively!

@scottwwilliams Thanks for asking Scott. Great question. We are different in a few important ways: 1. Spotlight- and Superhuman-like overlay that can open over any tab in order to show you relevant contextual information such as other files related to the App that you are currently working on, an slack conversation that references the article you are currently reading, etc. Of course you can also do basic actions from here like start a call, create a new doc, change or move tabs, save resources, etc. 2. Privacy and security as a core feature: In Workona everything is stored in the cloud and you need to trust them. KnowledgeOS lets you store your data on your device if you want. You don't need to trust us to "not be evil" or worry about us getting hacked because you can keep your history and tabs record on your device. 3. Pricing: We don't believe that tab management should be paid. KnowledgeOS gives you tab management as powerful as Workona without having to pay $7 or $15 / month. Our core premium features are focused around advanced data-linking across all your apps and devices so that you can always see related emails, projects, tasks, contacts and more around any website or file that you are viewing on the screen. These technologies are backed by 12 patents/patents-pending. You can read more about this here: https://www.comake.io/guide/subs... 4. Knowledge Graph for free: Even without upgrading, KnowledgeOS will help build a powerful Knowledge Graph for you as you work. In other words, if Workona is Google Docs, then KnowledgeOS is Roam Research. Some of the basic value adds provided by this Knowledge Graph include: easily being able to see all your data by type (e.g., all my files), you have open across all windows, Apps, browsing history, and saved resources. Hope this helps. In the coming weeks and months many of these differentiations will become increasingly apparent as we release the next set of Knowledge-Graph-based features which are built over these foundations. Happy to discuss it with you further if you like.

Wow, thanks for such a detailed response.

@scottwwilliams You got it Scott! It would be my pleasure to onboard you if you're interested: https://demodesk.com/book/comake...

@philippemnoel we’re honored to be able to share this with other makers like you. Can’t wait to see how we can share & collaborate to create the best browser based workflows!

@mike_annunziata2 Wowza. One of our earliest supporter here! Thanks Mike

@rosepember one of the OG Comakers! Thanks for your continued support and insight!
