I learned recently you can do this with screen time on iOS.


Hey guys, you should look at diamond.io, we're building something that is a tool to help you solve this problem and the problem of organizing information in general. Check us out!


"It's backed by a powerful Artificial Intelligence."

Ahhhhhhh!

You're tackling a laudable goal, but it would help to link to a page with more technical details.


Haha, I don't want to go too much off topic of this thread, but essentially we can analyze actual file contents, source and metadata to find patterns between file structures and associate them to user and "common" labels.

On top of that we try to get further accuracy by using user information to help us find the context. We call it a Personal System, a repo of knowledge and learned preferences heavily tailored around each individual user. We're just in beta now but definitely put your email down if you want to try it out eventually!


I put my email down to spy on you:)

My personal feeling is that (A) you're totally right that we need better _personal_ organization systems, but (B) the bottom layer (tagging, schemaing, relationships) should not involve fuzzy processes but should be totally understandable by the average user.

I know (B) is a weird opinion though so I look forward to seeing how far you can get with (A) plus machine learning & whatever other tricks you guys plan:)


Absolutely, I think (B) is quite a big concern for people. While it's nice to have a fuzzy AI match things _most_ of the time, it's absolutely critical the user can always go in and override and take control of the situation.

So for us, we very clearly distinguish "a user labelled this item" vs "we guessed it was this label".

I'll keep you posted!


Same here. I didn't find it a problem at all. It required a bit of piecing together, but it was definitely not difficult.
