Dali
Dali is currently in development. You can learn more about it by continuing to read. Stay tuned for updates!
The most valuable thing about information isn't having it - it's being able to find it when you need it. That's what Dali does. It's your second brain that remembers everything you've seen and tells you exactly what you need to know, right when you need it.
What Makes Dali Different
Most note-taking apps require you to actively manage information. Dali doesn't. It works silently in the background, capturing what you need without interrupting your flow. On iPhone, tap the back of your phone. On Mac, press Command+Shift+S. That's it.
The key insights behind Dali:
- The best tool is one you never have to think about using
- Information is only valuable if you can access it at the right moment
- Context switching kills productivity
- Everything should be as simple as possible
Core Features
- Works Offline: Everything runs locally. No personal data leaves the device.
- AI-Powered: Local LLM means fast, private answers based only on your data.
- Cross-Platform: Use it on Mac, iPhone, or Android. Your choice.Ï
- Invisible Interface: No need to open apps or switch contexts.
- Sync: Sync your data via iCloud or WebDAV. We don't know your data at all.
- Simple: No complex folder, no group. Everything in a single box.
Who Needs This
You probably need Dali if you:
- Frequently screenshot things to remember them later
- Find yourself searching through old messages/emails for information
- Get frustrated when you can't find something you know you saved
- Want to focus on your work without constant context switching
The common thread? You're someone who values both information and time.
How It Works
Dali has two modes:
-
Feed: Capture information silently in the background
- Mac: Command+Shift+S to screenshot
- iPhone: Back tap to capture
- You can also manually add information to Dali
-
Ask: Get exactly what you need
- Mac: Option+Space to query
- iPhone: Action Button or Siri
That's intentionally simple. The best tools usually are.
Real Examples
Here's what people actually use Dali for:
- Remembering train seat numbers without opening tickets
- Finding that one crucial detail from last week's meeting
- Keeping track of hotel bookings while traveling
- Saving important tweets before they disappear
- Quick-checking schedule details without opening calendar
The pattern? Things you need to remember but don't want to actively manage.
Getting Started
The best way to understand Dali is to use it. Install it, set up your shortcuts, and start feeding it information. You'll likely find uses we never imagined.

Remember: The goal isn't to give you another app to manage. It's to make managing information disappear entirely.
