## What is Slownotes AI?

The perfect companion for your physical notebook.

Slownotes converts your handwriting from a physical notebook into 
digital text. This creates a bridge between writing the way you 
love and your favorite digital workflows.

Writing by hand is still the best way to capture ideas and structure 
your thoughts. Slownotes lets you hold on to your pen and paper, 
while making your handwritten notes searchable, shareable and ready 
for AI. Send them to note-taking tools like Obsidian, Notion and 
others.

HOW IT WORKS

Scan your notes with your phone's camera. Slownotes transcribes and 
polishes your handwriting into clean, digital text. Use Slowdown, 
our markup language for handwriting, to mark things like people, 
places, ideas and quotes. Slownotes recognizes them and turns them 
into linked, searchable items in your library.

SEND YOUR HANDWRITTEN NOTES ANYWHERE

Your notes, your rules. Slownotes can send your notes to Obsidian, 
Notion, or any webhook of your choosing. This opens up integrations 
with n8n, AI agents, and any tool that can receive HTTP requests.

Slownotes integrates your handwritten notes seamlessly with your 
digital workflows.

SLOWDOWN - The markup language for handwritten notes.

Use symbols in your handwriting to mark people, ideas, quotes and 
other key elements. Slownotes recognizes them when it scans your 
page. Marked elements can become linked, filterable items in your 
library or can even trigger actions from Slownotes.

Examples:
- Tag people with @name
- Tag key subjects with #term
- Mark something with (term)* to instruct Slownotes to bring in 
  context

Slowdown is a completely new approach to structuring text, designed 
specifically for people who love writing by hand. It works in any 
notebook, with any pen.
