Knowledge Graph and Obsidian Integration

Knowledge Graph and Obsidian Integration

Overview

TinyCloud, founded by Sam Gbafa and Hunter Horsfal, has developed a tool that transforms unstructured data into structured knowledge graphs. This tool integrates with the Obsidian note-taking software to improve data recall and manage personal information securely.

Core Concepts

• TinyCloud’s Mission: To enable people to control their data with the ability to permission where the data lives and who has access to it.
• Knowledge Graph Generation: TinyCloud’s tool converts unstructured data, such as audio transcripts, into structured knowledge graphs that can be uploaded to Obsidian.

Key Points

1. TinyCloud’s Background:

   • Sam Gbafa has a background in electrical engineering and AI research, with a focus on cryptography and verifiability.
   • Hunter Horsfall has a varied experience, transitioning from small business ownership to working with TinyCloud.

2. AI Pendant:

   • Captures daily conversations, stores data in TinyCloud, and manages it through cryptographic permission.
   • Facilitates improved data recall and interaction with AI applications.

3. Integration with Obsidian:

   • TinyCloud generates knowledge graphs from unstructured data, which are then imported into Obsidian.
   • This allows users to manage their personal data in a structured format within Obsidian.

4. Data Ownership and Security:

   • Users can run their own nodes or rely on TinyCloud’s infrastructure to store data.
   • Data is stored securely and permissions are managed through cryptographic mechanisms.

5. Interoperability and Customization:

   • Allows for interoperability with various applications, enhancing personalized AI interactions.
   • Emphasizes on user-controlled data leading to unique customization capabilities.

Discussion Points

• Nicole Ripka, John Borthwick, and Jon Chin from Betaworks showed keen interest in TinyCloud’s approach.
• Economic Model: Discussion highlighted potential costs for storage and compute, with focus on making the service affordable for users.
• Hardware and Partnerships: TinyCloud’s vision includes possibly collaborating with other pendant manufacturers or creating their own reference designs.
• Betaworks expressed interest in exploring further collaboration, particularly around the use of Granola meetings and integration into Obsidian.

Events and Future Plans

• Ongoing Projects: TinyCloud is currently deploying their community wiki tool in Buenos Aires to generate knowledge graphs from event data.
• Future Integration: Plans to further develop Obsidian sync features and enhance the functionality of the TinyCloud protocol.
• Fundraising Efforts: TinyCloud is actively seeking investment to expand their development and team.
