Quoordinates (Quote Coordinates)

check out the general purpose PostgresDB prototype version of Quoordinates I'm working on -- Commonbase!!

• Readwise
• OpenAI Embeddings
• Nomic
• PSQL (PostgreSQL)

1. fetch highlights from readwise
   1. (optional) start at date
2. upsert data in database
3. embed highlights with openai
4. place embeddings into nomic visualization

embed-into-supabase.js is a node script that embeds highlights into supabase nomic-viz.py is a python script that visualizes highlights in nomic readwise-highlights.py is a python script that fetches highlights from readwise

Downstream Dependents

The apps below depend on Quoordinates and display how versatile this technology is:

• Commonplace Bot - A Discord Bot where quotes can be surfaced, discussed, and transformed in an MMO like format.
• Quo Host - A realtime speech to semantic search to "higlight within highlight" surfacer. Sound smarter on podcasts.
• Kindle Streamer - Use OCR on a cron job to take a picture of Kindle, and generate a visual bookmark using DALL-E.
