I've been tracking this space as well, as I have some product ideas that I'd like to be able to make for myself and not spin up a whole startup. Thx for the summary. :D

BTW, I just stumbled onto https://openrouter.ai/ today as a way to use many different ai services but not get bogged down by a dozen subscriptions.

Brilliant. And thanks for introducing the Bermuda Triangle. I’ve flown and gotten lost in there as well.

What was your Bermuda Triangle? Were you also looking at personal CRM or was it something else?

The personal crm space. It was great to build and use for myself but actually getting others into it and monetizing at the early phase was rough.

Yup, classic. What happened to the one that you built? Do you still use it yourself?

Took a breather. Tried to release control. Downloaded clay, disappointed and not finding it very sticky. Now back in the space of wanting to have the digital brain but require it to be offline which no one seems to be doing
