The core idea is similar to usefyi which pivoted to nira, an access/authorization monitoring service. Here is a thread on why they made the pivot.

How is needle different?

Are you also competing with various ctrl + K spotlight competitors, many funded by YC like raycast?



Thanks for sharing, definitely familiar with Usefyi -- them and Daniel Gross' Cue really set the stage for this space. In our mind, the biggest limitation for internal search is search quality, something that is becoming more and more improvable with LLM development


Immediate intention is to not compete with Raycast and the like. Search itself is a too difficult problem to also go down the path of fully replacing Spotlight.


Thanks for the answers. I wish you have a successful launch.


Thank you!
