Hey Product Hunt! 👋
A few years ago, we launched Lazy here for the first time and some of you might remember we took home a Golden Kitty for it. 🐱
Back then, we built Lazy on a simple belief:
The process of capturing information is broken.
A single shortcut should let you take notes from anywhere — emails, PDFs, videos, tweets — without breaking context.
But capturing was just the beginning.
Today, we’re launching Lazy 2.0 — your thinking partner, grounded in your own knowledge, ready to surface what you might’ve forgotten or build on what you already know — right where you work, write, or read.
With the same shortcut, you can now:
→ Ask: “How does this relate to my notes?”
→ Or: “Did we talk about this in our last meeting?”
→ Even: “How does this compare with [[Collection of Notes]]?”
Lazy surfaces insights from your own past ideas — in context, and in real time.
It’s like having a conversation with your second brain (or as we like to say, your second heart ❤️).
🧠 Whether you’re skimming a Paul Graham essay, replying to a team email, or deep-diving a research PDF — hit ⌘J and Lazy shows you what you’ve already thought, written, or saved that’s relevant.
All without switching tabs. No need to copy/paste.
Just one command — and your knowledge shows up.
We believe this is a new way to think with your notes — not just store them.
We’re so excited to share this next chapter with you!
If you find yourself struggling to keep your focus or you're simply a lazy person constantly trying to find easier ways to do complicated things — join us, we've been waiting for you!

Lazy 2.0 seems perfect for organizing thoughts effortlessly! 🧠 I'm interested in how it handles data security and privacy, especially given the sensitive nature of personal notes. Are there specific measures in place to ensure our data is safe? Keep up the great work!

@jaredl Appreciate it! 🙌
We’re definitely mindful of how personal people’s notes can be, everything you add to Lazy stays yours. We don’t train AI models on user content, and we will never sell or share it with third-parties.
We use secure infrastructure (AWS, Heroku, etc.) and limit access internally — only with your permission, and only if there’s a support need.
