minimi

What it is

minimi (https://www.projectminimi.com/) is a Mac personal-context app from Shram Intelligence that captures what you are already doing — browser tabs, docs, messages, calendars — into an on-device memory layer, then exposes that memory to the AI tools you already use (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and agent harnesses) via MCP. The 2.0 / “Melody” moment adds an open-loops inbox: it surfaces commitments you made (and quietly forgot) and tries to close or chase them without you re-prompting the model every time. We verified the marketing site HTTP 200 on 2026-09-26 and confirmed /downloading redirects to a live arm64 Mac .dmg on their S3 versioning bucket. Privacy copy (updated 2026-08-12) says memory stays on your Mac; some snippets are sent transiently to inference/transcription providers to produce replies and action items, not retained for training.

Who it is for

Founders and operators who context-switch all day and hate pasting the same backstory into every chat — especially people who already run Claude / ChatGPT / Codex-style tools and want a personal memory bridge, not another team wiki. Mac-only for now (PH comments already ask for Windows). Less useful if you refuse ambient capture of personal work, or if you need a shared company fact graph for a whole team (that lane is closer to GBrain’s team Markdown brain). On this board it sits in Productivity next to Pactto / Harbor / Tonebird as personal open-loop + MCP memory, not another meeting recorder or design review tool.

Why we listed it

Fresh public feature launch: Product Hunt featured minimi 2.0 on 2026-09-24 (~#4 / ~313 upvotes on hunted.space). Productivity is thinner than Marketing/Design on the board, and no listing covers personal ambient memory that auto-surfaces + closes open loops (distinct from GBrain’s team Markdown brain). Honest caveat: Cotton (memory) shipped ~3 months earlier; Melody is the new open-loops cat — still inside the early window, not a household brand.

Caveats

We have not run minimi for a week of real work, audited what “auto-close” actually commits on your behalf, or verified Windows timing. PH reviewers already flagged wrong auto-closes and the sensitivity of ambient capture (passwords, private threads). Treat Melody as a high-signal reminder + draft closer, keep humans in the loop for irreversible sends, read their privacy policy, and always send makers to projectminimi.com. Pricing / waitlist gates for “Get access” may change; Mac arm64 DMG was live at verify time.
