🤡 Happy April Fool’s Day! (YES we put an easter egg on the homepage go find it 🎁)
👋 This is Stain from GrimoAI - Cursor for Writing, infrastructure for expression.
1️⃣ year ago, we launched Grimo(Alpha) as a notebook for deep research. While users created brilliant notes, a persistent question emerged: "How do I turn these insights into shareable content?"
Inspired by Aaron Swartz's vision and Dr. Richard Hamming's imperative that "You must present your work so well that people stop to say 'Yes, that was good'", we rebuilt Grimo from the ground up.
As a Tool for Expression.
Core Features for anyone
✓ AI Orchestra - DeepSeek R1, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Gemini 2.5 Pro, OpenAI o3-mini, for FREE.
✓ Instant Styling & Formatting - Convert meeting notes → viral LinkedIn post in 3 clicks
✓ Knowledge Fusion - Web search + private archives = citable insights
✓ Happy Prompting - Prompt Generation, Auto Optimization, Management, Version Control, everything.
✓ Personalization - Dynamic memory, Coherent Style.
✓ 100+ Templates - Various Production-ready Templates that you can leverage directly.
✓ Voice-to-Text - AI-powered Transcription drafts anywhere, refine everywhere
We've helped lots of users transform notes into:
Platform-perfect social threads
Investor-ready white papers
Community-shaping Reddit posts
even production-ready PRDs
We are pretty excited about what you can do with Grimo.
And let's build words that move people - together.
Where words take flight, ears shall follow.
Amazing launch @stainlu @luobaishun! Can't wait to try this out
Grimo
bro it's already live, come try it out!
@stainlu @luobaishun I think I have found the one. So glad to have found this. Although, I don't see any option to select the LLM models that you mentioned come free with it.
Also guys, I want to try the community templates but they are only for pro :(
Grimo
@luobaishun @pranay12 free trial is provided so feel free to try it out!
HeyForm
Love the concept! Leading the idea of 'vibe writing' is brilliant.
Congratulations on the launch, and wishing you all the best!
🎉 Congrats on the PH launch, @stainlu ! Grimo is a game-changer for writers who juggle multiple AI models – love how you’ve democratized access to Claude 3.7, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and even o3-mini for FREE! The "3-click LinkedIn post" magic and voice-to-text workflow are 🔥.
🚀 Suggestion: A mobile companion app? Imagine refining PRDs via voice during my subway commute! Would also love browser extensions for on-the-go research clipping. Keep slaying the expression game – rooting for you! 👏 #TeamGrimo
Grimo
thx zepeng! we are working on that (i guess it's pretty clear as whoever with a voice mode would never stick to web-based lol

@jennieweng thx Jennie! what would you use it for?
This looks amazing, I've been really looking forward to seeing such a product. It seems like it could greatly accelerate my workflow.
Grimo
@ayuanyuan what is your current workflow?
@stainlu My writing skills are not very strong, so I usually draft some general, framework content, and then my colleagues provide suggestions on certain paragraphs. But it seems you could reduce my need to rely on my colleagues by leveraging AI, which would enhance our collaborative efficiency.
looks interesting. found that egg, loved the hunt.
good luck with the launch, @stainlu
Grimo
thx for your kind words Tania! had one more egg coming in an hour🥚
Zenkan
Congrats on your launch @stainlu ! Grimo is pretty cool, we definitely need an AI infused text-editor for writers too!
Grimo
@peti_poua thx peti! what would you use Grimo for ?
Congrats!Can’t wait to try it. Believe it will enhance my efficiency!
Grimo
@onbing feel free to give us any feedback!
MGX (MetaGPT X)
Interesting tool for AI content optimization! I'm curious about how well it helps content pass through AI detection systems. Have you tested its effectiveness with different platforms' content policies?
Grimo
@zongze_x honestly it helps us win some badges for quality comment lol
Love the ‘Memory’ feature! How does it retain context—is it session-based or customizable for long-term projects?
Grimo
@desmond_ren1 really long term actually and dynamic
Vibe writing era has come! I love how it decreases cognitive burden to write anything. One funny question here. Is there possibility of Async collaboration chaos when multiple users try to "cursor" the writing?
Grimo
@hyuntak_lee love the term "cognitive burden"! also for this great question you asked, async collaboration is executed via "comment" feature: users leave comments on the same content, and Grimo will understand the whole discussion and refine according to that. Will upload a video showcasing that!
@stainlu Wow understanding and summing up the comments to modify the same article where multiple people work on sounds like so a powerful tool! I'd love to see the showcasting :) Update me soon!
This is insanely impressive. The lineup of models you’re offering for free is wild, and the styling + prompt control features are exactly what most AI editors are missing.
Love how intentional the “tool for expression” framing is—it’s not just about generating text, but crafting something that actually resonates 🎯
Also… yes, I went hunting for the Easter egg 🐣 Great touch!
Congrats on the relaunch. This feels like a serious step forward in creative tooling.
Grimo
@alex_cloudstar version control in text editor is insanely hard to build tbh, hope you like it!
Love the concept. Just to dive deeper, what is the difference from ChatGPT Canvas? (except collaboration of course)
Grimo
@nikbez thx for the question! first of all, you take control over all editing, instead of letting AI to fix them automatically for you. secondly, you setup your own style and can easily switch between models, instead of drowning in ChatGPT-style content which seems pretty alike
This is really interesting! Also, really nice to see the tools used (except for Claude, I use all the rest). I will be following and checking the product. Good luck!
Grimo
@mmwilliansantos feel FREE to use all those models Michael!
I will get a great feedback with grimo

The positioning—"Cursor for Writing" hits just right. Love the idea of making deep notes not just informative, but genuinely expressive. The AI orchestra sounds intriguing too, keen to see how it vibes in action. Congrats on the launch!
Grimo
@auroraw thx Aurora! we really try to make notes and ideas widely accessible and so glad you like it!
WisdomPlan
A great tool for me to write SEO blog content! Congrats on the second launch! @stainlu
Congrats on the launch! Free access to top models is impressive. How does it balance response quality and latency when switching between different AI models in real-time?
Grimo
@raul_coffey we are prioritizing quality for this moment, and we also support GroqCloud if speed really matter for you

Grimo’s evolution into a tool for turning deep research into polished, shareable content feels like a natural and powerful next step. Really love the blend of thoughtful inspiration with practical execution.
Grimo
@felixgerlach thx Felix! what would you use it for?
