AI is deeply integrated in Tana, to enable workflows with superpowers. Capture meeting notes in real time, chat with your notes, turn voice memos into structured info, use AI agents to explore insights, reformat content and more. Tana AI provides access to the best LLMs in the world (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini), pairing each task with the ideal model for the job.
Since the beginning, Tana was always meant to work with AI. Tana lets you build a knowledge graph where you can add information to help AI understand what content means and how it's connected, through Supertags and fields.
Tana AI provides access to the best LLMs in the world out of the box. We pair each task with the ideal model for the job. Every model will already be fine-tuned for use in Tana, so you don't have to worry about that.
Included AI credits: AI in Tana requires a paid plan, which includes a monthly quota of AI credits. If you need more than the quota, you can buy top-ups.
All savings we receive on volume pricing are yours. When you sign up to a Tana paid subscription, you get access to not only all the fine-tuned AI models we subscribe to, but also the volume pricing we receive.
AI should be like electricity: you turn it on, and it just works.
There are many features in Tana that work with AI. For an extensive list, see the next section on Features using AI.
Botless AI meeting notetaker: You can import your meetings into Tana with the Google Calendar integration, then Tana will send you notifications where you can start transcribing system audio with one click - then get an auto-generated summary and ability to chat with the meetings notes with AI.
Chat with your knowledge: AI chat is integrated on all Tana notes, and can be started with one click or by pressing Space below any note. Choose if you want plain AI chat (like using ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini directly) or include your notes as context (pull them in with @ mention search).
Talk and work: Get your thoughts transcribed straight into notes. Start live transcription with / on any node. Enable audio-enabled fields and supertags get a recording button to easily start dictating.
Tana AI requires a paid subscription. You can only use AI in Tana if you are on a paid plan.
AI actions require credits to run. Monthly AI credits are included in any paid subscription. Credits can be topped up as you need.
AI in Tana gives you multiple models out of the box. But if you want to use your own Open API key for some things, we have left two commands (Ask AI + Ask AI (non-streaming) that you can use with your own OpenAI key.
The new, botless meeting notetaker lets you record and transcribe your meetings in real time, directly from Tana Desktop. It captures system audio, meaning it records not just your voice, but also everyone else’s - perfect for meetings, lectures, live streams, and shared audio.
This feature is ideal for situations where inviting a bot isn’t possible or preferred, and you still want to capture everything in one place. See more in Meeting notes in Tana.
Instantly capture ideas, thoughts or plan your day by talking to your phone. Tana will transcribe your memo and turn it into structured content by autofilling fields if you apply a supertag. See more in Voice memo
Pick a supertag to see fields that Tana will pick up content for
Start dictating and see the notes in real-time as you talk. Great for hashing out an idea for a blog post or article, drafting feedback, writing emails or capturing fleeting thoughts. 60 languages supported.
Tana's integrated AI chat is available on any note to help you iterate on, rewrite or get insights from your content. Edit AI responses and apply Supertags to parts of responses to add them directly into your notes. See more in AI chat.
Records, transcribes and extracts tasks from you meetings, and generates a shareable summary.
If you are not able to join a meeting in person, or need to join from mobile, Tana offers a meeting agent that you can add to your calls.
It will show up in the meeting as a bot, provide a transcript of what each participant is said, create a summary and suggest action items.
This is recommended in situations where it's important with high accuracy in speaker detection. In most situations or if you do not want a bot in the meeting, you should use the Meeting notetaker.
The Google Calendar integration will import your meetings, classify them with the right supertag and show them in a calendar on your Today page, so you can start taking notes with one click. Get notifications for upcoming meetings to take notes with one click. See more in Calendar integration.
We have added a new way to trigger commands to happen when nodes are added or removed from another node. They are called Events, and can be set up for any node and supertag.
For nodes: Run Configure node and go to On child added/On child removed:
For supertags: Go to Supertag config > AI and Commands > On added/on removed
The command line Open GPT log monitor will open a monitor that shows you how many credits are being used for various AI work. Right now it only shows credits spent using OpenAI models. We hope to add support for other models in the future.

The Tana Labs experiment AI for builders is what kickstarted the work on AI in Tana over a year ago. All the things you were able to do with AI for builders, you can do with a Tana paid subscription, without the need to bring your own key.
FixedIf you have selected an AI model that isn't valid, it now fails more gracefully. ()
FixedFixed a bug where audio-enabled fields could be set to output to source material, which should not be possible ()
FixedFixed Prompt workbench not opening from within command nodes ()
FixedAI prompts would sometimes not care to wait for the search results to update before sending them. Also 'Refresh search' command line now also wait, so any dependent command nodes running after it will have a updated search to reference. ()
ImprovedAI Autofill run on the client now automatically includes Source material in its context ()
NewNew AI models added, including Gemini 2.5 Flash, Gemini 2.5 Flash + Reasoning, GPT o4 Mini, o3, GPT 4.1, GPT 4.1 Nano and GPT 4.1 Mini ()
FixedFixed bug with AI model picker not working in Prompt workbench ()
FixedFixed bug where deviation in temperature format in configuring an AI agent caused the AI query to not work ()
FixedFixed bug where post-processing commands for Live transcriptions would sometimes not run reliably ()
ImprovedAdded LLM model picker to prompt workbench ()
FixedFixed issue where prompt workbench would sometimes not open from a field, and made sure default model is the same as AI fields use (currently gpt-4o). ()
FixedFixed bug with prompt/metaprompt on Generate image with DALL-E command node ()
InfoAdded Sonnet 3.7, GPT 4.5 and o1 (Warning: expensive models, handle with care) ()

Use AI to connect Readwise tags to my list of topics
Sep 12, 2024
The Tana API that is used to power the Readwise integration is exactly the same (and therefore has the same limitations) as the Input API. It can only write new nodes to Tana, and the API can only write a single value to new fields.
So, to get all your tags out of Readwise, we recommend a comma-separated format, and then using AI to link to the correct nodes in your graph.
Here's a video of how it works (no audio):
Here is the prompt:
PROMPT
Look at each keyword separated by the commas:
Input: [${rwTags}]
And try to find equivalents in this list of all keywords: //Insert search node here that finds all keywords/topics
