Analyze the shape of your notes
A topographic map of your workspace, semantically grouped into themes rather than folders. The subjects you write most about rise into named peaks, and the low passes between them expose content gaps.
The Links map is free on every plan. The Meaning map comes with AI.
The link graph Links Free
Every [[wiki-link]] you have written, drawn as one circle per note and one line per link. Drag the graph around, or drag a single note to pull its neighborhood with it.
Colored by folder Links Free
Each note takes the color of the folder it lives in, so the shape of your organization shows up in the graph before you read a single title.
Focus one note Links Free
Narrow the graph to a single note and what it touches, so a large workspace stops being one dense tangle and becomes a single note's neighborhood.
Find the orphans Links Free
Hide the unlinked notes, or go looking for them. A note that nothing links to is usually one you filed once and forgot.
Search in place Links Free
Search without leaving the map. Matches light up where they sit, so the shape stays in front of you while you look.
Filter by folder or tag Links Free
Narrow the graph to one part of your work when the whole workspace is more than you need to see.
Named themes Meaning AI plan
Meaning mode groups notes by what they are about and names each peak from the notes underneath it, so the map arrives labeled.
Flat and Raised Meaning AI plan
Read the 2D contour map, or switch to the raised 3D terrain. Both are built from the same data, and everything you can act on is visible in the flat one.
Click to hold Meaning AI plan
Click a theme or a gap and the map keeps it selected while you zoom and turn, with the note list filtered to match. Click again to clear it.
Links Free
Visualizing your
note connections
Links mode draws your [[wiki-links]]
as a graph: one circle per note, one line per link, colored by the
folder the note lives in. Drag it around, zoom in, or focus a single
note to see only what it connects to. Notes that nothing links to can
be hidden, or picked out on purpose when those are the ones you want.
Because it reads the links you wrote yourself, it needs no AI and no subscription, and it works on an end-to-end encrypted account exactly as it does on any other. Searching from inside the map highlights matches where they sit, so you keep the whole picture while you look.
Meaning AI plan
A terrain built from
what your notes are about
Meaning mode does not read your links. It reads your writing. Notes that cover the same ground pile up into peaks, and the map contours them like elevation, so a subject you have written about twenty times stands higher than one you touched once.
Each peak is named from the notes underneath it, so the map arrives already labeled: Offline Maps, User Research, not "cluster 3". Switch to the raised view to see the same terrain in 3D.
Gaps AI plan
The two subjects
that never met
The peaks are not the most useful part of a terrain. The passes between them are. Notate finds the low points that separate one subject from another and names the pair: two things you write about often, with almost nothing joining them.
That is a prompt rather than a verdict. Sometimes the two really are unrelated. Sometimes it is the note you have not written yet.
Common questions
What is the Note Map?
A view of a whole workspace at once, in two modes. Links draws your [[wiki-links]] as a graph, a circle per note and a line per link, colored by folder. Meaning ignores links and reads the writing instead, building a contour terrain where notes about the same subject pile into a labeled peak.
Do I need a paid plan for the Note Map?
Links mode is on every plan, including free, and works offline. Meaning mode needs the AI plan, because building the terrain means comparing what notes are about rather than which ones link to each other.
Does the Note Map work with end-to-end encryption?
Links mode does, in full. Meaning mode does not, and no plan changes that: the peaks are found by comparing note content, which an encrypted account never gives the server in readable form. The app keeps the control visible and explains why rather than hiding it.
What are Gaps in the Note Map?
Two subjects you write about often with almost nothing connecting them. Notate finds the low pass between two peaks and names the pair. It is a prompt rather than a verdict. Sometimes the two really are unrelated, and sometimes it is the note you have not written yet.
