Burner Note▲222In 2021 after getting thoroughly sick of Privnote, i built "Burner Note". Even though i didn't promote it in anyway other than a post here and a post on reddit, it ended up getting about 7000(ish) unique users per month. I kinda let it die about 18 months ago but i've resurrected it with some big upgrades. Most botable the app is now truly end to end encrypted (previously was just server side), and I've added dark mode as well as a few other bells and whistles. Feedback welcomed.

After my father was diagnosed with Stage 3 kidney cancer, my family was thrown into a tailspin. Getting second opinions, planning surgery, ensuring insurance coverage, coping with the fear. It was a lot to process. In the middle of dealing with all the medical logistics, I realized none of our family could answer if he: - Had a medical directive? - How to trigger his life insurance policy? - Where is his will and who is the executor? - What bank accounts and credit cards existed? - What bills are not on auto-pay? - When these bills due and how are they paid? That wasn’t solved by password…

I didn't ever consider myself a privacy advocate. At the end what would all these companies do with your data - serve you more targetted ads? How bad is that?

Founder here. I built this because many everyday notices are hard to understand: utility bills, medical bills, insurance letters, landlord notices, government letters, etc. The app extracts a few practical fields from an uploaded PDF/image: who sent it, who it is for, deadlines, amount owed, what it seems to mean, and what should be checked against the original. I know this is a sensitive area because people are uploading private documents. Current design choices: - users control retention/deletion - summaries are explicitly not legal/financial advice - failed or…

I've been exploring uses of file metadata. Here's an interesting one with a legitimate (and potentially unreliable) use case. Focuses on ease of use. Would love to hear feedback.
