An Absolute Gem in The Making!
I love IKI. I should end the review here. Ok let me add some context. I use IKI to learn from videos. I create a collection about a topic, I keep adding any videos I find to that collection and I can then talk to that individual video or the whole collection. This one feature is enough for me to give IKI 5 tacos. I have subscription to MindGrasp.ai which I won't need to renew because of IKI. The added advantage is that in IKI I have collections. I also have Mem.ai subscription which I also won't need to renew.
Now of course there have been many bugs since the app was launches here on AS especially the chrome extension was down for a while. But all the team worked hard to resolve these. Plus the team has been responsive & helpful on Discord.
The reason IKI has been getting less than 5 taco reviews is because IKI team's vision for the product is grand, and they have laid it out. There is A LOT that one will be able to do with IKI once all the features in that vision are incorporated. But that builds expectation. People expect to find these features now whereas the team have clearly provided the roadmap. So people buy IKI with that expectation and then do not find these features and get disappointed.
Things that I have found super useful right now:
1) Save youtube videos right now
2) Talk to videos or collections, extract key points, make content from videos
3) Save web pages extract summary, key points, generate content
Things that I would like to see improved/added:
1) Chat responses that are saved as notes - do not provide sources when reviewed in the notes panel. These should provide sources
2) More organisation and view options in IKI's library
3) Improved Image reading and OCR
4) Enhanced functionality in IKI's chrome extension where we could call it within a web page we are working instead of going into IKI to chat to a saved page
5) The ability to paste snip images directly into IKI library, just like in MyMind, instead of having to upload these.
6) And of course the research feature - it is on the roadmap.
Overall IKI is a great product and on course to become greater. Get it, try it, you will find it valuable. You can always return if you don't.
Thanks
