Sparking

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Patrick , the founder behind Sparking. After a decade as a content creator and knowledge worker, I've hit the same wall too many times: my deepest insights were buried in forgotten notes, while AI assistants gave me generic answers that didn't sound like “me.” That disconnect is why I built Sparking. The core problem we're solving isn't just note-taking or AI generation—it's the broken bridge between them. Most of us are stuck in two unsustainable loops: The “Note Graveyard” Loop (High Input, Low Consumption): We constantly capture ideas (in Flomo, Notion, etc.), but they pile up into a silent library we never visit. Valuable past work becomes inaccessible. The “Generic AI” Loop (Blank-Slate Generation): We jump to ChatGPT or similar tools to create, but they ignore our personal context and unique voice. The output is often bland and requires heavy editing to feel authentic. Sparking is the fusion you've been waiting for: a minimalist, fluent note-taking core deeply integrated with a collaborative AI engine. We close the loop, ensuring every note becomes strategic fuel for future creation. Here’s exactly how it works: 🤖 AI Smart Tagging: Just dump your thoughts in. Our AI automatically tags, links, and clusters your notes. The era of manual tagging is over. Transform chaotic snippets into a living, connected knowledge base. 💭 Socratic Dialogue: Start with a raw, vague idea. Instead of a generic answer, Sparking's AI engages you with clarifying questions. It helps you think deeper and define the real problem, fostering true co-creation. 🔍 Active Material Recall: This is the magic. When you write, Sparking proactively surfaces your own relevant notes, quotes, and ideas. It weaves them together with real-time web search, letting you build on your unique intellectual capital. 🎨 Polished Output with Skills: Go from idea to polished document in minutes. Use built-in, expert-level “Skill” templates for blogs, reports, or social posts. Export beautifully formatted Markdown, PDF, or WeChat-ready articles with one click. Stop switching between a graveyard of notes and a blank AI slate. Start creating with depth, context, and your authentic voice. We're launching today and would love your feedback, especially from fellow creators and builders: 👉 Try Sparking 💬 Tell us: What's your #1 frustration when trying to turn your notes into finished work?
