About Reflect
Reflect's quiet SQLite frontend rewrite reset its performance ceiling and unblocked the AI roadmap.
Reflect is a personal note-taking app with embedded AI features (chat, transcription, summarization). The structurally important move of the year was a frontend rewrite onto SQLite, shipped across iOS, web, macOS, and then iPad over March 2025 — fixing the load-time and large-collection ceilings that had been quietly limiting the product. The rest of the visible cadence has been AI surface work: in-line voice transcription, Gemini for long-context chat, AI link summaries that feed semantic search, and an editor for custom prompt templates.
