The Drive AI
After months of hard work, I'm thrilled to announce the launch of Chat Channels and Direct Messages on The Drive AI. Why Chat Channels? During my master’s program, managing extensive research, project discussions, and documents across platforms like Google Drive, Zotero, and Slack was a real challenge. Finding past discussions on Slack became harder as projects progressed, leading to inefficiencies and repeated questions. Imagine a platform where every research paper, project file, or document seamlessly integrates with persistent chat channels—a system that combines the best of document…

The Drive AI is an intelligence layer that reads, organizes, and finds your files wherever they live. Link your email, upload files, or drag and drop. Everything lands in your workspace. Create documents, organize files, search by content, share with your team — all in plain English. The AI agent executes the task, cites its sources, and asks before going beyond your files. Drop in your files and let AI understand, rename, and organize them instantly. It reads content - not just filenames. And it learns your patterns over time, so it gets better at renaming and organizing the way you prefer. Create, share, organize, and transform files just by describing what you need.

I released ContextChat, an AI chat designed to be context-centric, helping you stay focused and productive by giving you control over the information your AI sees. You can import websites, files, and public/private GitHub repos to give the AI full knowledge of your projects. Unlike other chatbots, ContextChat lets you easily switch between project contexts, so you get relevant answers and avoid the noise. It's pay-per-use, giving you flexibility and control over costs and free models are available so you can try it for free with no monthly subscriptions. Let me know your feedback!

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
