But when you throw in the custom AI commands, it’s like a whole other ballgame — takes it to a completely different level.”

Common questions about Tana
How does Tana’s AI work?
Tana's built-in AI assists you with things like live voice transcription, summarizing meetings, extracting insights from meeting transcripts and letting your AI chat with your notes as context - without leaving your flow.

Check out AI-powered templates to see what AI can do.Tana lets you build out custom AI-based automations with command nodes and event triggers. You can also build out AI chat agents (like custom GPTs) with specific prompts or instructions for how to process something e.g. an OKR agent that will review your draft and suggest how to improve them.
What is Tana?
Tana is an AI-powered outliner editor that helps you capture, connect, and structure information in a networked knowledge graph.
Can I record and transcribe meetings in Tana?
Yes, Tana can capture voice or meeting audio, transcribe it automatically, and link it to related projects or people so it becomes part of your knowledge graph. This allows you to compound the information from meetings, into a powerful historical archive.
We believe meetings is an important way to capture knowledge and context, that is important when working with tasks. Tana lets you tag tasks, decisions or follow ups directly in the meeting notes. You can also customize how meeting transcripts are processed, to tailor your workflow to different use cases Check out templates for meetings; use research interviews, investor meetings, hiring interviews.
How is Tana different from Notion?
Tana isn’t a page-based tool with databases inside pages, it’s a knowledge graph workspace built as a living network. Where Notion organizes information in folders and tables, forcing you to navigate to the right place to note something, Tana lets you simply take notes anywhere, add supertags, and the information will flow to where it's needed. You can create live searches anywhere to pull out the information you need, filtering on properties and supertags. Since Tana is an outliner editor, any note can be tagged, linked or references, offering enourmous flexibility.
Tana lets you easily connect your ideas dynamically, like your brain does. By typing @ you can mention any note and pull it in as a reference, not just create a backlink. References let you work on a mirrored version of the note, but changes will also be applied to the original. This makes it easier to update information, avoiding it becoming stale.Tana is built for voice input, both on desktop and mobile. With live transcription on desktop, you can talk instead of typing, or transcribe meetings with the meeting notetaker and get automatic summaries. In the mobile apps, you can record voice memos, and build custom workflows by adding supertags with instructions for how they should be processed.
Tana offers a Daily Notes page, a fresh notepad to start your day with planning, reflection or journaling. You can customize your daily notes as a dashboard, pulling in tasks for review, open projects etc. with Live searches.
Together, this makes Tana a great Notion alternative for power users who are looking for an AI-powered notetaking app giving them more control over how to build out their workflows. It also makes Tana one of the best tools for building a second brain, with methodologies like Getting Things Done (GTD) or Zettelkasten.Why should I switch to Tana?
This is best answered with a few quotes from our users:

"Supertags are amazing to track all todos and decisions across all my daily notes and projects"

"Jot down, capture my thoughts and easily organize them"
"A flexibly accessible system. Everything is connected, but not forced. I don't need to invest so much time building the system. Just build as i go. I don't need to fill everything or make it consistent. It's there when i need it"
"No other tool provide pure outliner with task management, databases and complex queries."
