You save something because it matters. Later, you remember the idea but not where you put it. Notori is an AI notes app that turns scattered notes into a connected second brain you can return to. CAPTURE WITHOUT SORTING FIRST Write a thought, paste a useful link, or add a photo. Start with what is on your mind instead of choosing a folder before you can save it. Notori keeps the original note and looks for useful connections with the rest of what you have saved. BUILD CONTEXT WITH TOPICS Related notes come together in Topics. A trip, project, person, reading list, or recommendation can grow as you add details. Each Topic gives you a clearer place to revisit the notes that belong together without losing their original context. SEARCH AND ASK YOUR NOTES Use local search on your saved notes when you remember a word or detail. When you need the wider picture, ask a question in your own words. Notori answers from the material you saved and shows the sources behind the answer. Open any source to read the original note and check the context yourself. USE NOTORI TO β€’ Capture text notes, links, and photos β€’ Bring related notes together in Topics β€’ Search the material you have saved β€’ Ask questions about your own notes β€’ Follow cited sources back to the original Keep project clues, travel plans, things you want to read, details about people, and recommendations in one connected memory. Save one useful piece at a time, then find it again through Topics, search, or Ask. MORE WAYS TO SAVE, FULL CONTROL Save from other apps with the Share sheet, add PDFs and text files, or start a note from a Home Screen widget. With iCloud turned on, your notes sync through your own private iCloud to your other devices. Export your notes as Markdown or delete them permanently whenever you want. AI AT THE CORE AI is an essential part of Notori, and you accept its processing before you start. To build Topics and answer questions, note text, resized copies of your photos, your question, and the relevant sources are processed through Notori’s server and OpenAI. Saving and local search work on your device. Notori requires an active subscription or, if eligible, an active seven-day free trial. Apple shows the local price, billing period, and trial eligibility before confirmation. Payment is handled through your App Store account. The subscription renews automatically until you cancel it in your App Store subscription settings.
