Reading notes & knowledge capture
Who it’s for
Lifelong learners who keep reading nonfiction, courses, and newsletters—and want a searchable knowledge project instead of chat scraps.
Common friction
You forget what you read; notes live in five apps; dumping a whole library into cloud AI wastes tokens and raises privacy concerns.
How WriteX helps
Treat a folder as the project: one main note per book, theme cards in separate files. The AI agent uses context attachments across several notes for contrasts and digests. BYOK lets you pick cheaper models for daily tidy-up and stronger models for long summaries. Files and keys stay on device—see local-first & security.
Typical workflow
- Create a reading project:
books/,cards/,themes/. - Capture excerpts and reactions in each book note.
- Attach 2–3 related notes; ask the agent for a comparison table or theme brief.
- Use project search across books.
- Snapshot milestones.
Tips
Use a low-cost model for daily cleanup; switch models for polished digests. Keep unpublished notes off public sync folders if needed.
