Building Hayley has meant reading a lot of research on how people process decisions out loud.
The patterns that come up most: a relationship that needs a conversation you keep avoiding. A business decision that's already made but won't stop reopening. A version of yourself you're not sure you're living up to.
Curious what it is for the people in this community. Not looking for details, just the category.
Saw Hayley's stance on on-device transcription and patterns staying on the phone. We made the same call and it is harder than it looks once you say it out loud. Minimi is an ambient memory layer for Claude. It captures what you see and what is said on calls, on your Mac, encrypted on-device. Keeping capture and storage local meant giving up some easy wins (cross-device sync, cheaper retrieval) in exchange for a promise we could actually stand behind. Two things I am still wrestling with: retrieval quality without cloud-side processing, and how to explain local-first to people who assume cloud by default. How are you framing it? We launched this week. If the local-first angle is your thing, I would genuinely like your read on it.
Speak for 60 seconds. No prompts, no structure, just say what's on your mind. Hayley reflects back three things: an insight about what you're really saying, a pattern detected across your sessions, and one question worth sitting with.
Not a chatbot. Not voice notes. Not therapy. A thinking companion that pays close attention, session after session.
