I started Athens after interviewing at Roam in March of 2020. I believed knowledge graphs and bidirectional links were going to change the way we use computers and the internet. But I got rejected because I didn't have Clojure experience.

I still wanted to work on this technology I loved. I believed everyone else should also have that right — to extend and own their second brains.

Open Source was the only option.

Now, I have no doubt OSS will lead to the best product, platform, and community.
