Kana as a Saner.ai alternative
An ADHD-focused AI assistant holding your notes, email and calendar in one workspace, across web, desktop, mobile and a Chrome extension. Voice capture is one way into it rather than the product itself.
What Saner.ai does better
Saner.ai and Kana barely overlap. Saner keeps a searchable workspace of everything you have captured, connects it to your mail and calendar, surfaces related notes and answers questions about them. Kana has no store, no search, no calendar and no memory of anything you dictated. If the point is that the voice note goes somewhere and is findable next month, Saner is the product and Kana is a keyboard.
Where Kana is different
- Kana writes into whatever app you are already using, instead of into its own workspace.
- Transcription runs on the Mac with no account.
- Nothing is kept once the text has been inserted.
