Show HN: Synnote – AI That Turns Notes into Action

https://www.synnote.app/
3•curiocity•2h ago
Hi HN,

I built Synnote because I kept writing pages of notes from lectures and meetings and then never acting on them. I wanted a tool that not only stores notes but actually helps me do something with them. Synnote analyses your writing, summarises key points, pulls out to-dos and can turn a note into a podcast so you can listen when you're on the move.

Here's the backstory: earlier this year I was preparing for an exam and realised my notes had turned into procrastination—copying slides. I started working on a note workspace that would nudge me to act. After a few prototypes, I got something that turned my notes into tasks and summaries automatically. Friends who tried it either loved it or joked that it encourages laziness because the tool does the thinking for you. Personally, I think tools like this are about freeing up mental bandwidth, not making you avoid work.

I'd love your feedback on whether this kind of automation is useful or if it feels like overkill. Does having tasks extracted for you help you focus, or does it take away too much friction? Happy to answer questions and share more details.

Thanks!

Here's an interactive demo you can try before using the app -

This looks cool, but I am not sure what other Todos the AI component would be able to handle apart from doing research on notes?

Also having AI write notes is really missing the point of writing notes in my opinion.
