Looking for Early Builders & Prompt Engineers to Shape Noteal

Hey devs 👋

I’m building Noteal — a focused productivity app centered around goals, notes, and intentional work.

The web app is fully done, and the desktop version is ~40% complete.

This is no longer an idea — it’s an actively built product with real users coming next.

I’m opening up a small Builders Club for people who want to help shape Noteal early.


What is Noteal?

Noteal is built to be:

  • Minimal but powerful
  • Opinionated around focus and clarity
  • Less “feature bloat”, more intentional workflows

Think goals, notes, timelines, focus sessions — designed to work together instead of feeling scattered.


Who I’m looking for

I’m not looking for freelancers or one-off contributors.

I’m looking for builders who enjoy shaping products.

Especially interested in people with:

  • 🧠 Prompt engineering / AI interaction design
  • 🤖 Experience designing prompts, AI workflows, or AI UX
  • 💻 Frontend or full-stack devs who think product-first
  • 🎨 Devs with a strong eye for UX polish
  • 🧩 People who like turning vague ideas into solid systems

You don’t need to be senior — you need to care.


What you’ll actually do

Depending on your strengths:

  • Help design and refine AI prompts & AI behavior
  • Shape how AI integrates into real productivity workflows
  • Improve UX flows and interactions
  • Build or refine core features
  • Discuss and influence product direction

Tasks are clearly scoped — no chaos.


What you get

This is an early-stage builders role, not paid (for now), so transparency matters.

You get:

  • 🌱 Founding / Early Contributor credit
  • 🏷️ Public recognition (README, site, launch credits)
  • 🧠 Real product experience (not tutorials)
  • 🧪 Freedom to experiment and influence direction
  • 🚀 Priority access to features
  • 💬 First consideration for future paid roles if/when Noteal scales

Tech stack (high level)

  • Modern web stack (React-based)
  • Clean, component-driven UI
  • Thoughtful state & UX architecture
  • AI features designed around real usage (not gimmicks)

Details shared once you’re in.


How to join

If this resonates:

  • Drop a comment or
  • DM me with:
    • What you enjoy building
    • Any experience with AI / prompting (even experiments)
    • Why Noteal interests you

No CVs. No formalities. Just builders.
