Introducing Lex! A word processor with artificial intelligence baked in, so you can write faster. 👉 lex.page 👈 (I've been working on this awhile... so glad to finally share it!!)

LEX V2 — part 3 of 5 Introducing Personas Get different perspectives on your writing. Also, this solves many of the most common annoyances with LLMs, e.g. sycophancy! Try it 👉 lex.page (Thanks to @eigenrobot & @nickcammarata for the inspiration!)

been seeing more calm-tech-vibes ai apps emerging that feel like useful magic tools to help you think e.g. @LightpageAI for journaling and self-reflection, @lexdotpage for writing Does anyone know more of these? is there a list somewhere? a subreddit?

LEX V2 — part 2 of 5 Introducing the world's most powerful interface for using AI to edit text

My writing process these days: 1. Outline (brain to hand to notebook; thanks, but no thanks, AI, and damn you!) 2. Write the first draft 3. Copy-paste in @lexdotpage (Oh, hello AI, you're not all bad) 4. Get Lex to copyedit 5. Revise revise revise 6. Copy-paste finished draft in platform editor 7. Publish

New in Lex: A much improved table of contents! 🎉 Thanks for the nudge, @p_millerd :) (What should we build next?)

Nice little quality of life update for @lexdotpage we just shipped When you add a URL of a YouTube video to a chat as context, we scrape the transcript

New essay by me: “Why don’t more writers use AI?” Cursor just raised a 9-figure series B and every programmer I know uses AI all day. Writers, meanwhile, are still at the bottom of the S-curve. But why? (Continued…)

Ever since I saw @hnshah mention @lexdotpage , I've been testing it out. It's 100% a better word processor/writing tool than Google Docs. The way AI is integrated is done pretty well, and it feels lighter weight, but equally as powerful. Feels faster.

my #1 fav right now is @lexdotpage by @nbaschez

went down a little rabbit hole yesterday reworking the ai model picker now live on @lexdotpage before after

New in Lex: Rewind! 🎉 Viewing your document’s history is now as easy as scrubbing through a video

Introducing an upgraded Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and a new model, Claude 3.5 Haiku. We’re also introducing a new capability in beta: computer use. Developers can now direct Claude to use computers the way people do—by looking at a screen, moving a cursor, clicking, and typing text.

lil homepage tweak for @lexdotpage

I have been using @lexdotpage for a few months now. At first I didn't think it was any better than Google Docs for me, but after a number of key features dropped... It is now my favorite word processor for drafting and editing! And the underlying LLMs have gotten better!

AI is obviously essential for coding in a way that it's not for writing (yet). This year @lexdotpage is launching two things that I think could have the potential to change that. This is the first. It's a tiny start, but tbh kinda thrilling to work on 🙏
