I would use this if it had a hotkey to instantly translate what I have highlighted into English in an overlay. I can see Cortex having several other keyboard shortcuts that can perform custom actions that I have set up for my account. Are there any other preconfigured shortcuts that you've thought of implementing?


I've thought about having hotkeys for specific prompts but never thought about translation. Will try to implement!

Each user's Martin has a unique phone number, which is used to text and call your contacts. You can also monitor all of Martin's conversations with your contacts in the Martin iOS app.


Don’t have an android app yet but there’s a waitlist here - https://getwaitlist.com/waitlist/11378

A lot of power users use it to organize their digital life in one place (to-dos, reminders, schedules) and then they use the social integrations (slack, email, sms) to move the information around.


Great question. It can do both! You just have to add Martin to Slack once from our web app. Then you can:

1) DM the Martin bot in Slack to reach Martin.

And 2) Ask Martin on any platform (web, sms, iOS app) to read/send/react to messages as you directly from your own Slack account.


We have a web app and iOS app for now - just click "Try Martin for Free" and it'll take you to the web app. It's also at https://app.trymartin.com.

Congrats on the launch guys! Tried the product early on and it’s clearly improved a ton. I’m still using Cursor every day mainly because of how complete the feature set is - autocomplete, command K, highlight a function and ask questions about it, and command L / command shift L. I am not sure what it’ll take for me to switch - maybe I’m not an ideal user somehow… I’m working in a relatively simple codebase with few collaborators?

I’m curious what exactly people say causes them to make the switch from Cursor to Codebuff? Or do people just use both?


Sweet. Personally, I use both Cursor and Codebuff.

I open the terminal panel at the bottom of the Cursor window, start up `codebuff`, and voila, I have an upgraded version of Cursor Compose!

Depending on what exactly I'm implementing I rely more on codebuff or do more manual coding in Cursor. For manual coding, I mostly just use the tab autocomplete. That's their best feature IMO.

But codebuff is very useful for starting features out if I brain dump what I want and then go fix it up. Or, writing tests or scripts. Or refactoring. Or integrating a new api.

As codebuff has gotten better, I've found it useful in more cases. If I'm implementing a lot of web UI, I can nearly stop looking at the code altogether and just keep prompting it until it works.

Hopefully that gives you some idea of how you could use codebuff in your day-to-day development.


The mural of search results is cool but I keep getting lost and can’t find my way back to the earlier results


I’d love to have something like this in Xcode. Or alternatively if I could export an xcodeproj file from my Spawn project? I couldn’t imagine developing an entire launchable app in English (at least not yet). But if it could build an MVP that I can then iterate on, that would be awesome!


I totally agree! When you export your app in Spawn, it’s exported as an Xcode project and you can make code modifications from there


Oh nice! Will try this out next time I want to spawn a new xcode project.


You can dictate to Martin and have him transcribe for you and send you the notes over email or text, but we don't support directly editing documents yet - though this is coming soon (we're planning to integrate Martin with your Google/Word docs this fall)!
