Tana
AI-native workspace where every note is a living object
About
Tana is a note-taking and productivity workspace built on nodes instead of pages: every thought, task, meeting, or person is a unit that can be linked and structured anywhere. Its signature feature is Supertags, which turn any note into a typed object with fields you define once, so a #person tag always brings up email, company, and follow-up fields. Recent versions lean heavily into AI meetings: a botless meeting agent records, transcribes, and summarizes calls, and higher tiers expose the workspace through MCP. The learning curve is the honest catch — reviewers consistently say it takes two to three weeks before the model clicks, and the mobile experience lags the desktop.
What it can do
- Node-based notes with Supertags for typed, structured objects
- Botless AI meeting agent with live transcription and summaries
- AI Chat with your workspace content
- Semantic search and search nodes/queries
- MCP access on higher tiers for agentic workflows
Setup
- Create a free account at tana.inc.
- Capture notes in the daily inbox; tag key items with Supertags like #task or #person.
- Define fields on a Supertag once to structure everything tagged with it.
- Connect Google Calendar and enable the meeting agent for AI-transcribed meetings.
Prerequisites
A web browser or the desktop/mobile app; Google Calendar connection for the meeting features.
