Suitable tasks

Connect ideas and query a controlled collection of notes.

Limits and checks

Local notes do not mean AI calls remain local. The Mac app, iOS apps and API calls have separate cost conditions.

A repeatable trial

Import copies of three fictional notes, including a private note. Check backlinks, Markdown export and content sent during an AI question.

How to decide

Keep the workflow when notes remain recoverable and you control information sent to the provider.

Frequently asked questions

Does moving to Open cancel my Classic subscription?

The page describes separate workflows. Check your subscription rather than inferring cancellation from an import.
