Flywall — Building a Billion-Dollar App
Ship the beta this week
Charge for the memory tier
A second you for everything you learn
Meet a second you. It remembers everything you learn.
Flywall captures more than meetings — the calls you take, the documents you read, the research and articles you consume — and files it all into a private memory that's yours alone. It works like a second brain: it categorizes and stores everything you learn, then a local AI hands it back the moment you need it to push your ideas forward. It all runs on your machine: nothing is uploaded, no account required.

Founder list
First 50 founders to DM when the beta ships.
BobIf the on-device memory nails recall, this is a billion-dollar wedge.
AdamKeeping the model fully local IS the moat. Nobody else does that.
How your second self works
It captures. It remembers. It answers.
Flywall takes in everything you learn — meetings, notes, documents, research — files it into a private memory, and lets you question all of it. Without a byte leaving your machine.
01 Sit in on every meeting
Press record. It's in the room with you.
Audio is captured and transcribed on your device in real time, with speaker labels. The moment you stop, your second self writes the summary, decisions, and action items — so you stay present instead of scribbling notes.
- On-device transcription & diarization — Whisper / Parakeet, fully offline.
- Instant local summary — decisions and action items the second you stop.
- No bot, no upload — it sits in without anyone else listening.
BobIf the on-device memory actually nails recall, this is a billion-dollar wedge.
AdamAgreed — keeping the model fully local IS the moat. Nobody else does that.
BobShip the beta this week, charge for the memory tier, let the privacy story sell it.
AdamDone. Let's make Flywall the first thing every founder opens.
02 Organize the memory
A private board, not a folder maze.
Meetings, notes, documents, links, the research you consume — everything you bring in becomes a movable card on a private board. Your second self files and categorizes it all into columns — drag, tag, filter — then export anything to plain Markdown. No nested folders to dig through.
- A private column board — drag cards between columns, kanban-style.
- Tags & quick filters — group related thinking without folders.
- Markdown export, no lock-in — .md with YAML frontmatter, anytime.

03 Ask your second self anything
Everything you've learned,
Everything you've learned,
one question away.
Everything you capture — meetings, documents, the research you consume — is chunked, embedded, and categorized on your machine into a private knowledge base. Ask a question and a local AI answers from your material — not the internet — citing exactly where it came from. The more you feed it, the sharper your second self gets, and the faster you move your ideas forward.

Privacy isn't a setting
Your meetings never leave this device.
No bot joins your call. No audio is uploaded. No account required. The AI runs on your CPU.
A second you that answers to no one else.
On-device by default. Recording, transcription, embeddings, and summaries happen locally — offline works.
Nothing phones home. No telemetry, no sync, no servers in the loop.
No account, ever. Open the app and start. There's nothing to sign up for.

Who it's for
Built for people who live in meetings.
Founders
It remembers every investor call and strategy session, so you can recall any promise or number on the spot — without a tool that leaks your roadmap.
Product managers
Every discovery call, spec, and research doc becomes searchable memory — ask what a user said three sprints ago and get the exact quote, linked to its source.
Consultants
A second you for each client — every engagement's meetings stay separate, instantly recallable, and never touch a shared cloud.
Executives
Walk in briefed by your second self, walk out with the follow-ups already captured — and recall any past decision instantly.
And the rest of the kit
Everything else you'd expect — still on-device.
Calendar-aware
Connect Google Calendar for prep briefs before, and follow-ups after.
Command widget
A floating Sparkles bubble for quick AI actions, right on your board.
Markdown export
Export everything to .md with YAML frontmatter.
Light & dark
A warm light mode and deep-plum dark, fully themeable.
Questions
The things people actually ask.
Flywall captures what you learn — from meetings to the documents and research you consume — remembers all of it, and recalls it on demand, like a version of you that never forgets and is always available to answer. It isn't a chatbot pretending to be you; it's your own memory, captured and made instantly searchable by a local AI.
No — meetings are just one input. Drop in documents, PDFs, notes, and the articles and research you consume, and Flywall categorizes and stores it all in the same private memory. Your second self connects the dots across everything you've learned, so you can pull up whatever moves your work forward.
No. Recording, transcription, embeddings, summarization, and chat all run locally. There's no upload, no sync, and no telemetry. The only optional network call is connecting Google Calendar — read-only event data you explicitly authorize.
Everything you capture is chunked, embedded, and tagged on your device into a private knowledge base. When you ask a question, a local model retrieves the relevant pieces from your content and answers from them — citing the exact meeting or note. Nothing is sent to an external model.
Neither. There's no sign-up — you open the app and start. Once the local models are downloaded, recording and AI work entirely offline.
Those tools send your audio to their servers and hand back a transcript. Flywall is a second you: it keeps everything on-device, builds a private memory of every meeting, and lets a local AI answer from it — citing the exact source. Your data never touches a shared cloud.
Flywall is a native desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux. There's no web or mobile version — desktop is the whole point.
Always. Every note, meeting, report, and conversation exports to Markdown (.md) with YAML frontmatter. Your files are plain text on your disk — no lock-in.
