FAQ

What makes this distraction-free?

There are no sidebars, formatting toolbars, or complex folders. Just a blank page that saves as you go, keeping you in your flow state.

Is it really free?

Yes, completely free. No credit card, no trial period, no hidden fees. The core app is free to use.

How does the AI work?

Our AI quietly processes your notes in the background to help you stay organized. It can draft content in Active AI Mode or help you extract reminders from your natural writing.

How do reminders work?

DraftNote converts text in brackets, like [tomorrow @9am], into interactive reminder nodes. You can also select any text and click "Remind" to choose a time from our menu.

What is Active AI Mode?

It's a real-time thought partner. Toggle it in the menu or type >/ at the end of a thought to have the AI suggest a continuation or reflection, helping you dig deeper without leaving the editor.

Do I get SMS notifications?

Yes. If you've added your phone number, DraftNote texts you your reminder message at the exact time it's due. It's a friction-less way to stay on top of your day.

Can I draw or sketch?

Yes! Toggle any new note to whiteboard mode for a full drawing canvas. Sketch diagrams, wireframes, or visual ideas — everything saves and syncs automatically, just like text notes.

Are there keyboard shortcuts?

Yes! Type /b for bold, /. for bullets, and /- for checkboxes.

Is my data private?

Your notes are yours. We use AI only to help you write and organize, never to sell your data or train public models.

Can I organize with tags?

Yes! Type #hashtag anywhere. You can then view your history and filter by those tags instantly.
