Workflow

A second brain that files itself

Text your assistant anything — links, voice notes, stray thoughts — and it summarizes, tags, and files everything into your notes, then answers questions about all of it later.

Tools in this workflow

  • OpenClaw
  • Obsidian
  • Raindrop

Goal: capture everything with zero filing effort, and actually find it again.

  1. Capture anywhere — drop a URL, a tweet, a voice memo, or a half-formed idea into your OpenClaw chat. That’s the whole capture ritual.
  2. Process automatically — it summarizes the content, tags it, links related notes, and saves the result to your vault (Obsidian, or wherever your notes live). Voice notes get transcribed first. A bookmark pile in Raindrop can be drained the same way, in batches.
  3. Index nightly — a scheduled job keeps a semantic index over the whole vault, so retrieval works by meaning, not keywords.
  4. Ask, don’t search — “what was that pricing argument I saved in the spring?” returns the note, the source, and the context you saved it in.

Field variant: at a conference, take rough notes in chat while it fact-checks quotes and pulls the papers speakers mention — you leave with an organized summary instead of a photo of a slide. For the search layer without the assistant, see Perplexica.
