Notes: capture work context from anywhere

Open an instant notepad from any web app, organize notes with tags, and let Personal Memory surface relevant notes when you need them most.

Work thoughts arrive at inconvenient times — mid-meeting, while reading a doc, during a review. Floutwork’s Notes gives you an instant notepad you can open from anywhere inside Floutwork, without navigating away from what you’re doing. Notes you capture become part of your Personal Memory, so they come back to you when they’re relevant rather than disappearing into a folder you’ll never open.

Opening the instant notepad

You do not need to navigate to a Notes section to start writing. The notepad is available from any web app inside Floutwork.

1. Open Notes from anywhere

   Click the Notes icon in the Floutwork sidebar. The notepad opens alongside your current page.

2. Start writing

   Type immediately — no template to fill out, no title required. Capture whatever you need to remember.

3. Add tags to organize

   Type a #tag anywhere in your note to categorize it. You can add multiple tags to a single note.

Tag-based organization

Tags keep your notes organized without requiring a rigid folder structure. Add tags as you write — #meeting, #decision, #follow-up, #project-name — and filter your notes by tag any time you need to find something.

Keep a consistent tag vocabulary. A small set of tags you use consistently (such as #decision, #action, #reference) is more useful than many specific tags you only use once.

Accessing notes from anywhere

Your notes are always a click away in the Floutwork sidebar, regardless of which workspace you’re in or which web app you have open. You do not need to switch to a separate notes application.

Notes sync across your Floutwork session in real time, so anything you capture is immediately available whether you’re in the browser, the AI Chat, or any other part of Floutwork.

Personal Memory

Every note you write feeds into Personal Memory — Floutwork’s persistent layer that learns from your work over time. Personal Memory also tracks your tasks, chats, and bookmarks.

When you’re working on something and relevant context exists in your notes, Personal Memory surfaces it automatically. If you wrote down a decision three weeks ago and you’re now reviewing the same topic, that note can come back to you without any searching.

Personal Memory is at the heart of Floutwork. The more you capture in Notes, Tasks, and AI Chat, the more context it builds — and the more useful it becomes over time.

Quick notes vs. longer notes

Not all notes are the same. A quick note is a thought you want to preserve without interrupting your flow. A longer note is structured reference material you’ll return to. Both work in Floutwork’s notepad.

Quick notes

• Open the notepad, type a few words, close it.
• Use a tag so you can find it later.
• Don’t worry about formatting — completeness matters more than polish at capture time.

Longer notes

• Use the notepad as a lightweight working doc for meeting notes, research summaries, or decisions.
• Add multiple tags to make the note findable from different angles.
• You can use the AI Chat alongside your note to help expand, summarize, or structure it.
