Hi Product Hunt🎉! This is Jc, the founder of AFFiNE. Our last launch of AFFiNE was wonderful, and we couldn't wait to do it again! I'm super excited to bring you AFFiNE AI! We believe that tools are there to free people. AFFiNE AI can liberate you from all forms of tedious work, available today. Built with the latest GPT Vision model, AFFiNE AI moves beyond text-based dialogue. Based on our infinite whiteboard and powerful block editor, AI naturally understands everything on your freeform canvas. In AFFiNE AI, whether it's an image, an article, or a form, just right-click and select, and the AI can automatically understand your content and provide various outputs, it can even turn your doodles and prompts into an interactive app at the click of a button. ✨ Let me highlight some of our technological advancements and features: ✅ Chat with GPT, but with all forms of blocks. After having modern IMs like WhatsApp and Telegram, nobody would want to revert to the text-based messages from mobile phones 20 years ago. The same concept applies to chatting with GPT. In AFFiNE AI, documents, spreadsheets, or even any area of whiteboard or webpage can become part of your conversation with GPT. ✅ The most professional copywriter that truly understands you. Drafting up an idea, translating, summarizing your material, or simply proofreading and making your tone perfect, AFFiNE AI has you covered. Write, draw, plan all at once, but with AI this time! ✅ Concretize abstract thought. Visualize lengthy knowledge. AFFiNE has always aimed to be a good tool for thought and knowledge management. Now, it becomes even easier when you can ask the AI to connect the dots and turn your thinking, writing, and planning into clear mind maps or slides. ✅ "Make it real". Inspired by a series of great works from another wonderful open source project, Tldraw, we have also created our own version of "make it real". With it, you can draw anything or paste any pictures you like, and ask AI to transform them into web pages or apps. Creating a detailed, actionable marketing plan for a new product? Organizing an enormous amount of knowledge into a clear and concise mind map? Or perhaps you need to transform last week's work report into a presentable slideshow at the touch of a button? AFFiNE AI always understands you. It turns your abstract and complex needs into a complete solution with just one click! To shape, not to adapt. Human thoughts naturally tend toward association and drawing parallels, rather than stringent linear narratives. We believe our edgeless canvas + AI can be your best non-linear coworker when it comes to real-world challenges. Let AFFiNE save more of your valuable time, so you can enjoy your life 🎵 Check out https://ai.affine.pro/ for more details ☀️!

@leovs09 Of course! However it may take some time.

@jiachen_he -- Almost brings a tear to my eye -- been waiting a long time for a product like this. Open-source, self-hosted, data visualizations... there must be a catch. But if I don't find one soon, I sure hope there's an easy way to migrate from the grabby paws of... I won't call them out. Well done. Update 6/12: Still researching current PKMS landscape, but may have encountered a "catch" -- https://www.avcj.com/avcj/news/3... . (sigh) there's always a catch.

AI finally comes to AFFiNE, congrats! I've always been a fan of the local-first concept, wish you good luck on the launch!

@luobaishun Thanks for the wishes! We love local-first too!
Jc He
@luobaishun Thanks! We will keep on making the best, non-compromising local-first product until the concept of local-first totally takes over traditional cloud based apps!
Congrats on the launch team AFFiNE. It looks so comprehensive that I'm not sure who the target audience is :) Is this for Product Managers, or Marketers, or Developers?
ShortCipher5
@jgani Why not everyone haha?

Jackie

@jaredl Thanks! Glad you like it.

Out of curiosity -- have you guys been using GPT, or trained your own model? I can def see a positive difference of the output quality.
Jackie
@memphys_sk We use GPT as the base for our AI but enhance it by adding specific prompts to tailor the outputs more closely to user needs. This approach helps in achieving higher quality and more relevant responses. Thanks for noticing the difference, and we appreciate your interest!

The goal of AFFiNE AI is to help users complete tasks more efficiently in their work and writing flow through AI. We do not want AI to be a standalone shell; instead, we hope it can integrate into the product, become a part of the product, and make AI no longer deliberate or require cumbersome switching between different AI products.
ShortCipher5
@zanweiguo Wonderful!

I recently joined the team last month, and we've worked hard for this launch. We have a lot planned and on our plate. Structured data support, multi-LLM vendor integration, and useful RAG for notes.... Let's see how far we can go!
ShortCipher5
@richardchian Excellent!
Bethany Cutmore-Scott
I love your design! Excited to jump in and try out your AI functionality. Congrats on the launch @jiachen_he !
ShortCipher5
@jiachen_he @bethany_cutmore_scott Thanks for your kind words. Do try out the AI and let us know how you feel.
Jc He
@bethany_cutmore_scott Thank you! The AI is just a magic to affine that makes everything easier!
Bethany Cutmore-Scott
@jiachen_he @shortcipher5 I'm loving this thus far. The AI image generator is a little over-complicated at the moment (i'm asking to generate simple user flows and getting very complicated responses back but that's the experience I have with most AI image generation). But generating templates for docs, help with editing etc is working really well. Do you have an app for iPad available/ on your roadmap? I'd love to be able to actually draw using my pen

Each AFFiNE launch is always so sensational! I love the local-first concept of AFFiNE, and overall product design is very pleasing. Last month, I experienced two instances of Notion service outage, so I'm going to give AFFiNE a try🤣 Congratulations on the launch team AFFiNE!

Congrats on the launch team! As a creator, I use different CRM for managing my social, freelancing, and other stuff. AFFiNE seems to be a replacement for all. I'll surely spend the next couple of weeks on this and see how it can change my workflow.

Congratulations on the successful launch of your product! I'm very interested in the one-click widget generation, and the ability to create mind maps and presentation content. It looks like it could greatly enhance my brainstorming efficiency.

Ryan Hoover
I have to ask, why is the "i" lowercase in the product name treatment? :)
Jackie
@rrhoover Nice question, I guess our CEO is the suitable person answering your question @jiachen_he
Liana Hunanyan
@rrhoover If I were the ceo I would answer this way: - we wrote i lowercase to showcase that we are not egocentric and for us our users are the most important 💜 Btw congrats on launch 🚀 we have also launched wordbook extension today 💜 wordbook is one of the most user-centric products which helps people to learn without losing focus 🤗💜
Trent Kennelly
Love tools that make things insanely easy like this! I'm a particular fan of the magic mind map. Those things are amazing but sometimes take too long to put together. Love this take 🤩
ShortCipher5
@trent_kennelly Do have a in-depth try, we'd love to have your feedback.
