MyLens AI simplifies learning about anything with simple, clear visuals. Whether you ask a question or upload complex data, it creates easy-to-understand visuals that highlight key insights and provide deep understanding—all with one click.
Wow @ardalanmirshani what an amazing journey with MyLens AI! Starting with just timelines and now adding mindmaps, quadrants, and tables is fantastic. It's great to see how you're making complex data easy to understand for everyone.
Congrats on the launch, 250,000 visuals in just seven months is quite impressive. One thing I'm curious about - with the new data upload features (CSV, images), can MyLens AI handle a mix of data types in a single project? For example, could I upload a screenshot with some key points and then add some relevant data points from a CSV to create a more comprehensive visual?
Thanks @ellen_yang2 for your question. Currently, you can upload one file for each visual in MyLens. However, we are actively working on enhancing this functionality to support multiple data types in a single visual. This feature is on our roadmap.
Congratulations on the launch! Simplifying complex data with visuals is a brilliant idea.
How does MyLens.ai handle data privacy and security, especially when dealing with sensitive or proprietary information?
Thanks @kyrylosilin for your comment. We prioritize keeping users information safe. We use a top-tier cloud service to ensure robust security and compliance with industry standards. Importantly, we do not use users data to train our AI models or share it with anyone. We follow strict practices to protect our users' data.
As a person with a unique blend of Gestalt and visual learning preferences, I am genuinely excited about the potential benefits that MyLens AI promises to offer. Even though I haven't had the chance to fully explore all its features yet, the concept alone of this tool is a breath of fresh air in my learning journey.
The promise of transforming complex data into clear, visually engaging insights with a single click is a dream come true for people like me. It's not just the efficiency that excites me, but the prospect of having key information highlighted in a way that aligns with my holistic and visual approach to understanding.
What truly piques my interest is the empathetic design approach of MyLens AI. The idea of a tool that intuitively caters to my specific learning needs is thrilling. It feels like this tool could become a mentor in my quest for deeper understanding and professional growth.
In essence, MyLens AI is more than just a tool - it's a potential revolution in personalized learning. I am eagerly looking forward to seeing how this product evolves and the impact it can have on diverse learners like me. With anticipation, I await the opportunity to fully immerse myself in all the features of MyLens AI.
MyLens.ai seems to have a wide range of applications, from education to business. Can you share some specific examples of how different teams are using this tool? Great Launch!
You are correct, @jackeye. We initially gained traction among students, teachers, and researchers who appreciated the ease of transforming complex subjects into clear visuals. As we expanded our visual types and added support for data integration, we began attracting interest from marketing, business, and consulting teams.
Today, MyLens is becoming increasingly popular across various business departments, including legal, HR, and IT. Each team benefits from MyLens AI’s ability to simplify and visualize their unique data, making it easier to extract insights and share them with their teams.
Congratulations on the publication of MyLens.ai on Product Hunt! The AI's ability to provide insightful visuals to answer any question or analyze complex data with just one click is truly impressive. This tool will undoubtedly simplify learning and enhance understanding across various fields. Excited to see the impact it will have in education, artificial intelligence, and data visualization.
@russell_liu17 Thanks! We initially gained traction in the education community, and now we're seeing growth among businesses looking to simplify learning from their data.
Congrats on the updates! Love the variety of visuals added to the product. Definitely a great tool for people who love clear visuals. Excited to see its impact!
🎉 A New Chapter for MyLens AI
Seven months ago, we launched MyLens AI with a simple idea: making beautiful timelines of historical events with just one click. We didn't expect such a huge response, but over 50,000 users joined us, and together, we created more than 250,000 visuals! 🎉
📣 Listening to Our Community
From our first day on Product Hunt, your feedback has been our guide. We realized that while timelines were powerful, our users wanted more ways to visualize complex information. That's why we added three new types of visuals: mindmaps, quadrants, and tables. Each new visual was designed to break down complexity and present it in an accessible, clear format.
🧩 Simplifying Complexity
Our team’s background in data science and visualization has always driven our mission. Initially, we focused on making it easy to create timelines. But as we engaged with our community, we saw a bigger opportunity. We wanted MyLens to be more than just a timeline creator. We envisioned an AI that could analyze and present information visually, no matter how complex.
🔍 Tackling Complex Data
In our discussions with users, we learned that more than 85% of business data is unstructured and qualitative, making it difficult to analyze. Many of you face challenges with messy data like customer feedback, emails, PDF reports, and IT logs. These types of unstructured data are often so complex that people give up on extracting insights and end up making gut decisions instead.
📑 Upload Image as Context
We wanted to help users make sense of this chaotic data. Initially, we allowed users to upload images, such as screenshots of PDFs or web pages. This was our first step in seeing if our AI could handle real-world complexity. MyLens AI began by analyzing these images to extract meaningful information and turn it into clear, insightful visuals. 🖼️🔍
📁 Upload CSV as Context
Building on the success of image uploads, we recognized the need for even more robust data handling. That's why we added CSV data support. Many users work with structured data and need a simple way to visualize it. By allowing CSV uploads, MyLens AI can now load this data, analyze its structure, remove noise, and enrich it to highlight the most important insights—all with just one click. 📊💡
🧠 MyLens AI Architecture
While users don’t see the complex chain of AI processes behind the scenes, MyLens AI is hard at work transforming raw data into insightful visuals based on what you want to know. This ensures that no matter how complex the information, MyLens can make it accessible and easy to understand.
🌍 Who Is Using MyLens
Initially, many learners came to use MyLens, including students, teachers, and researchers. They liked how easily they could turn complex topics into understandable visuals. However, as we added more types of visuals and support for adding data as a source of information, we began to see traction among marketing, business, and consulting teams.
Now, MyLens is growing in popularity across various teams within businesses, from legal teams to HR and IT departments. Each team finds value in how MyLens AI simplifies and visualizes their unique data, making it easier to extract insights and share them with their team and stakeholders.
🚀 Continuing the Journey
Our vision is to create an AI that can analyze and present information into a simple visual, no matter how complex. We offer a powerful free version that anyone can experience the power of MyLens AI. 🚀 We’re just getting started, so kindly try MyLens and give us your feedback and help us build MyLens together! 🌟
