Capture for Roam Research vs TaskNotes

Capturing data into your Roam Research graph shouldn't be a chore. With Capture for Roam Research, you can send a text note, speech-to-text note or image OCR-to-text note to Roam in the blink of an eye. Share PDFs or images, or even record a voice memo for upload to your graph. Use Quick Actions to make it even faster to launch your preferred capture method. Setup is easy: 1. Install this app! 2. Enter your Roam Research graph name and API key in More > Settings > Graph and API Settings. Click to confirm your access. 3. Install the companion extension from within Roam Depot to unlock full functionality. Click the Authenticate with Roam Depot companion extension to authenticate. If you wish to upload images to your Roam Research graph, there is no way to do this with the Roam Research API. As a workaround, you can use Dropbox to host images and see them in your graph. You will need to authorise with Dropbox in the application Settings.

TaskNotes is a calm, capable task manager built around portable Markdown records. Capture work quickly, decide what matters today, and organise tasks without locking your information into one app. • Create, edit, complete, search, and reorder tasks • Plan with lists, boards, calendars, due dates, and scheduled dates • Set priorities, recurring tasks, reminders, and dependencies • Track time and attach images • Turn rough notes into selected tasks with Scratchpad • Choose system, light, or dark appearance • Inspect the Markdown record behind any task TaskNotes works with mdbase collections. Use a hosted collection or connect one kept on your computer; the same interface and task model apply either way. Your collection remains the authoritative home of your tasks, and each task stays a structured Markdown record you can use beyond TaskNotes. Reminders are delivered by mdbase, so TaskNotes does not need to stay open. Notification payloads contain no task titles, descriptions, paths, or record content. Learn more at tasknotes.dev.
