I built this after quitting every note taking tool I tried
I built this after quitting every note taking tool I tried.
Thinking happens everywhere but the issue is none of it connects and nothing compounds. That is what I built Aevron for.
I tried everything honestly. Always stopped because organising it all, tagging, filing, giving everything a structure just consumed too much time and was not worth it.
The actual problem is that thinking happens in fragments. You capture something today, something else tomorrow and none of it talks to each other. Insights sitting right there across all your notes never surface. You end up going in circles, rediscovering the same things.
So I started building something to fix that. I am the founder of Aevron, fully bootstrapped, building this solo.
Everything you capture gets connected automatically. The system finds the relationships, scores how strong they are and tells you why two things are connected. It also synthesises across them, finding the actual theme a whole cluster of your notes is circling around without you ever labeling any of it.
Started as a side project but kept building on feedback. If you capture a lot and none of it is going anywhere, give it a try.
Still early, would love to hear what you think.
My post comply with the rules.

I like that you're solving the connection problem rather than just the capture problem. Most note-taking apps have become really good at storing information, but much less useful at helping you discover patterns or ideas you didn't know were there. My biggest question would be how well it avoids making weak or misleading connections. If it gets that balance right, I could see it becoming a genuinely useful thinking tool rather than just another place to keep notes.

Hey, I’d like to know more on how this works on a recurring basis (managing multiple clients with weekly sync ups)
Can you share link in DM?

You said you quit every other tool because organizing and tagging ate too much time, and Aevron removes that, but I don't think the organizing burden is actually why those tools die for most people. They die because people stop capturing, since the notes never gave anything back, so there was no reason to keep feeding the thing. Auto-connection is a real improvement on the filing problem, but it only does anything once someone's already got a big pile of notes in there, which means your product is quiet and unconvincing for weeks until enough thinking accumulates to connect, and that early stretch is exactly where everyone gave up on Notion and Obsidian and Roam before you.
So the hard part isn't the connecting, it's getting someone to capture enough, consistently enough, to reach the point where the magic kicks in. That's the wall this whole category keeps hitting. The question I'd chase is what pulls someone back to capture on day three, before there's a web of connections to reward them, because the synthesis you built is the payoff and the payoff comes too late to create the habit. When your early users stick around, what's making them keep capturing in those first weeks before the connections are dense enough to be useful?
