24 alternatives to Aiden AI
Hi HN, I built Aiden AI as a privacy-first executive assistant app that works fully offline on iPhone. It helps startup founders, busy professionals, and executives stay focused, take notes, organize schedules, and get intelligent summaries — all without sharing their data with any server. Built using Core ML and SwiftUI, it’s designed for performance and privacy. I’d love your feedback and suggestions to improve it! Happy to answer any questions.

Aident AI Beta 2▲398Hi HN — I’m Kimi, founder of Aident AI. A couple years ago, I cold-started a startup and tried to automate my outreach pipeline with a patchwork: RPA + Zapier + "just some ChatGPT". It worked… until it didn’t. Every time I tweaked the strategy, the automation snapped. The system wasn’t built for change — it was built for wiring. And that’s when it hit me: AI is finally smart enough to do real work, but we still don’t have a clean way to communicate the work to it: Drag-and-drop flows are too rigid; Scripts are too fragile; Prompts are too ephemeral. I kept thinking: why can’t automation be…

Hello Aria▲163I built HelloAria because every task manager I tried required too many steps to do something simple. The core idea: say "remind me to review the PR tomorrow at 10" and it creates the task, sets the reminder, and files it. No forms, no manual input. It works on iOS natively and also through WhatsApp, Telegram, and email — so you can capture tasks from wherever you already are. Tech stack: Swift/SwiftUI on the client, with NLP handling the intent parsing and entity extraction from natural language input. Looking for feedback from the HN community. What would make this actually useful for…
