Show HN: OzBrain, a shared brain for knowledge between agents and your team

Do you have a solution for degradation in accuracy when compiling larger amounts of llm-produced text?

I am also building LLM knowledge/memory systems and I've been surprised how bad LLMs are, even SOTA models, at summarizing non-trivial input batches of text. They get things wrong, distort the underlying meaning or data, etc.

It’s very encouraging to see serious attempts at addressing continuity between agents’ outputs. Right now, everyone seems to be figuring out their own way of maintaining consistency across sessions without endlessly over-contextualizing each new one.

This feels like an important layer of the emerging agent stack, and I think this Show HN will be useful to a lot of people working through exactly that problem.

This is interesting.

Would you consider this a different type product/benefit than all the "memory" things we have seen popping up everywhere?. Is it different just because it lives in the cloud? To me it feels like a different thing than memory.

I have been thinking about this idea for a while. Cool work.

I’m not sure I get the value over Obsidian, can you explain the static file issue? Only happens at 7K+ individual files? What happens if you always conjoin files?

This is a fascinating place in the stack to sit. I need to dig in a lot more. Nice start.

Good luck with the showing!

So is this cloud sync for my Md files? Who pays for the diffing and versioning?

Almost all of this is stuff I have indeed "frankenstein[ed]" for myself, so consider this comment a +1 on market fit, there!

That also gives me a reason to pause, tho; the pitch in general is as solid as it can be on a site with markdown turned off (why, lord, why), but as a format minutiae megafan, I was left a little dissapointed. Where do you/OzBrain stand on Markdown formats? Could I use Sphinx with this, in rST and/or native MyST? Can it generate plain PDFs, fancy PDFs, or even animated static sites? etc. etc. etc. Not trying to gotcha, just curious to hear your thoughts & dreams on the topic!

It seems like some subculture(s) of SWE/SV/YC/AI has landed on obsidian-ish markdown with lots of wikilinks as the presumed default, which makes sense. So I'm assuming it's the same here. But also, your 'OzBrain vs. Obsidian' page does describe one difference as 'Markdown export anytime' vs. 'Markdown on disk' -- presumably that's just a hedge about hosting paradigm rather than a comment on the persistent format?

P.S. You're likely aware but there's at least one other company using Oz -- Warp's coding agent. Have you considered renaming this to something unimpeachable like DeepReasoningBrain? ;)

P.P.S. Holy hell your `eng-flow` thing is incredible. Maybe I'm behind the times, but... I mean, has anyone else processed how close we are to Minority Report and Iron Man?!

P.P.P.S. Is any part of that/this OS?

Meh
