Ok, let's be honest... how many of your notes and bookmarks do you actually look at after saving them? All too often, we save interesting and useful content to "read later"... but then we never do 😅 Well... meet Recap! Recap is a personal AI email roundup of all your latest notes, bookmarks and files, sent to your email inbox at a convenient time – when you'll actually read it! Get your Recap daily, weekly or monthly, at any time you choose ⏰ Everything in your Recap comes with a helpful summary, helping you review, reflect and respond. "Read later" doesn't have to mean "read never". Excited for you to try it out!

hey @new_user__330202361305144c07d45c0 ! you can't customize the length *yet*... but we plan to add customisation across all aspects :)

This looks like an amazing tool! As someone who often forgets about all the interesting articles and notes I've saved, Recap sounds like a game-changer. The AI-generated summaries will definitely help me sift through everything more efficiently. Love the flexibility of choosing how often I receive my roundup - definitely a potential MVP for anyone looking to stay organized! Can’t wait to see how it works in practice. Thanks for sharing this brilliant idea! Upvoted!

Hey Johnny, Have you considered adding a feature for users to set goals or reminders based on the content in their recaps? Congrats on the launch!
Atmos Black
Sorry, but you have lost my trust completely. You are "launching" new features that sound good in theory, but since the very first Fabric beta the actual product hasn't changed. Over a year ago you "launched" integration of external apps and where are they now? I login every few weeks and nothing has changed. You are basically launching stuff to attract new people with fancy landing pages and none of these features exist. First I thought it's bold, but by now watching you for a long time I'm sure that this strategy is to deceive people on purpose to build a user base to increase your sell value. It won't work though.

@atmos_black 1) absolutely, wildly incorrect – we've changed almost everything in the product. I even need to record a new product intro video this week because we've ripped out every UI element and so it no longer reflects our app 2) we have never done any form of launch for "integrations of external apps", not sure what that refers to. we are however working on more integrations, now that we've rewritten the platform, but that's an ongoing process for us, not a launch of any kind

Hey this is cool! Does it also track time? Congrats on the launch!🚀
johnny makes ⚡️
@twoheads not totally sure how you mean, but you can for example ask time-based questions to the assistant e.g. "what was that PDF about metabolic pathways from last week"
Two Heads
@johnny_makes I mean, does it show how much time you spent on specific notes, websites, etc?
johnny makes ⚡️
@twoheads I see! not yet, but that is a very interesting idea, and maybe we could use that to weight content based on what was most important to you (i.e. more time spent = more important)

This looks promising! The idea of having a personal AI to help organize and summarize everything sounds really useful. Many of us struggle with our "read later" lists. Thanks for launching Recap, can't wait to give it a try! Upvote from me!

I am excited about Recap! It’s great to hear that it might help manage bookmarks and notes better. i have question as all we do mark the interesting content for later ... but then we don't open it because there is no reminder have this product have any reminder like that ?
johnny makes ⚡️
@huma_saqib Recap emails to you at a time of your choosing – but we are planning to add reminders and other task management features inside Fabric :)
Ashrita Kumar
Congratulations on the launch! This is truly a game-changing idea! Does this also track timelines and schedules mentioned in the notes?
Star Boat
This sounds super interesting! How does the AI actually summarize the notes? Will it learn from my reading habits over time? Curious about the tech behind Recap!
johnny makes ⚡️
@star_boat yes – it will summarize any note, file, link, image etc. – and in a future update it will have more context about your goals, patterns of behaviour etc!
Claudia Nathan
Omg this is such a 10/10 idea
Derek
Great to see someone doing this! I’ve considered it so many times myself 🔖 🔥
Milli Sen
This is a genius idea for anyone who saves too many content and jots ideas. Congrats on the launch!
Matt Binder
Is this part of Fabric? Like if I have a Fabric account, do I already have access to this?
johnny makes ⚡️
@mattbinder just go to Settings –> Recap, and from there you can turn it on, tweak the settings etc.
Antoine Gauthier
Congrats on launching Recap! This is such a game changer for anyone who's drowning in bookmarks and notes. The idea of AI-generated summaries coming right to our inboxes is brilliant—finally, a real solution for "read it later" content! Can't wait to see how this boosts productivity. Upvoting for sure! 🙌 Looking forward to the traction and the impact it will have on our workflows!
johnny makes ⚡️
@antoine_gauthier_ thanks so much! thanks :) it felt like a very natural solution to the problem – summarize your latest notes and content, and put it somewhere you'll definitely look, at a time of your choosing excited to hear how you get on!
dashuai
Loving the concept of Recap! It's such a smart way to tackle the "read it later" problem we all face. The AI summary feature sounds super useful for quick reflections. Can't wait to see how this improves my productivity! 📝 Keep up the great work, Makers!
Alex
Thanks for sharing Recap! This sounds like a game changer for productivity. I often find myself drowning in saved content and never revisiting it. The AI summary feature is a brilliant touch—definitely helps with reflecting and dismissing the "read later" trap. Can't wait to see how this improves my workflow! Upvoted!
Lucas Edwards
Best of luck team Recap 👍
Thierry RENARD
Hey, this sounds super useful, I mean, who actually finds time to go through all their saved stuff, right? Getting a regular digest could really help stay on top of things, excited to see how this could change my workflow, hope it works as well as it sounds!
Frederic
So we need AI to remind us to read what we saved, just shows how lazy we’ve become, I mean if you didn’t care to read it the first time will you even bother now

@eventizceo most people use Recap because they’re busy, or because they have collaborators contributing to a shared collection, or because they mindfully want to reflect
Hanna Gustafs
I saw this through a friend's recommendation, honestly who needs another email cluttering their inbox even with summaries, it's just another chore to keep up with
