Format Matters: Building a Universal Translation Layer for You

15 Jul

Some assistants learn your tone. LittleBit is learning your tools too.

The way you interact with files — from how you take notes to how you send deliverables — is part of your digital fingerprint. And that’s why one of LittleBit’s foundational attributes is now:

{format preference}

Just like name, nickname, or wake word, your preferred formats form a core part of your identity in the LittleBit system.

When you say:

– “Send me the .docx version”
– “Give me a markdown draft”
– “Export it as JSON”

…LittleBit doesn’t just follow instructions. It remembers.

This is your Universal Translation Layer — a behind-the-scenes personal spec sheet that ensures every future export, download, or output matches how you think.

P.S. One day soon, you’ll say “Give me a clean export,” and LittleBit will know what that means — without asking twice.
