IKI.AI has transformed the way I manage information – I jsut drop stuff and ask co-pilot to extracts key ideas or answer my questions, which saves me a ton of time. No need to search for that link again. Recommended for anyone needing efficient knowledge management.
è un approccio alla conoscenza e competenza molto interessante, da seguire per vedere come si evolverà nei prossimi mesi.E' una soluzione che ha molti lati positivi che si intravedono.
best knowledge management system I ever had
I've been looking for a simple and fast wiki to organize my work stuff.
Would love to see some sort of a team access.
I really admire the work you all are doing and how you grow!
The interface is very user-friendly, and the product is beneficial. I created my collection and studied popular topics every week using Iki.

Thank you for your review, Maria! This is quite empowering, we're working hard to build the best digital library.

simple yet genius implementation of a digital library! The co-pilot is pretty smart and accurate, adding data is smooth (love the web reader showing you what it got btw), and collection sharing is a no-brainer to distribute my content around social media.
Great job guys and keep pushing – notes should be updgraded too.
i love to store my knowledge, and iki is one of the best tools as my second brain. Simple and innovative. Also, the iki team ships new updates every week - their traction is admirable.
While the idea is great (largely copied from Google's NotebookLM) the site IKI.AI is so buggy that it is essentially unusable. It's quite surprising that it's been released at this stage.

Hi Ivan, with regard to your comments below,I still don't quite understand the difference between NotebookLM and Iki.AI. What Notebook calls "Notebooks", IKI.AI calls "Collections." Features like summarization, identifying concepts, and extracting information from sources seem to be the same on both platforms (because the underlying LLM is presumably the same/ similar). Iki.AI appears to have a more straightforward web clipping and sharing function compared to NotebookLM, but other than that, I can't see how the main features differ. Platforms such as MyMind, MyMemo, and Saner.AI offer the very same features too. Could you elaborate on what the selling point is for IKI.AI?
Moreover, as mentioned in my comment above, Iki.AI was very buggy when I tried to use it:
Bulk upload did not work. Of 10 sources, only 2 were uploaded.
When viewed in "Collections", not the Library, the title assigned to these two sources was a string of numbers and letters, not the actual titles of the uploaded document, while the titles were shown correctly in "Libraries."
Most importantly, interrogating uploaded documents with prompts does not work, and the process freezes at "We are processing this document." Pre-defined prompts such as "Write a tweet" do interrogate the document, however.
Overall, since bulk uploading and interrogating documents does not work, all other functions the platform currently offers, such as summarization and note creation, become meaningless. I really like the aesthetics and feel of Iki.AI, but at the moment, platforms like Saner.AI or even MyMind.AI and MyMemo.AI offer better services to users, in my view. I hope this helps.

Thanks for your most recent reply, Ivan. All Generative AI-powered models currently available offer similar features: information identification, summarization, and repackaging. Therefore, most tools are quite similar in terms of their offerings. If the underlying GAI features are essentially the same across platforms, the only way to distinguish one's product from competitors is by having a user-friendly interface and top-notch customer service.
When I pointed out the numerous flaws on the IKI platform (some of which persist) in my initial review, you sent me a friend request on Iki's Discord Channel. You then berated me for leaving a one-star review and subsequently blocked me from the channel. While IKI may eventually offer similar services to those currently provided by Saner.AI, NotebookLM, MyMind, and Recall, your hostile reaction to constructive criticism is what truly sets IKI apart from other platforms I have interacted with. You will have to do more than fix bugs to attract paying customers.
Would appreciate more details, Michael - they would help to fix things. We have Discord for product feedback, feature requests & bug reports, and the goal is to make a good product with the limited resources we have as a bootstrapping team. We have not copied Google NotebookLM, first versions of the product & designs were released before it - you can check in our Linkedin.
BTW, if you've been using a mobile version - here we do understand and agree with this feedback, the web app is not optimized now for mobile, I encourage you to try the desktop version and maybe change your mind about the experience.
Another issue is notes - we have very limited support for them, but the next release is going to fix that - the writing experience will improve dramatically and all the notes will be indexed as well as other materials.
Dear Michael and everyone who encountered bugs while using iki,
Last month we’ve been working hard to deliver and fix all the issues we found while scaling - we sped up the co-pilot and the web pages reader, added notes support, etc. You're welcome to check out the updated version.
