Notebooks: Sources, Notes and Questions in One Place
Collect sources, keep notes beside them, and ask questions against just that collection — study guides, case files, a literature review, trip planning.
A notebook is a place to collect sources, keep your own notes beside them, and ask questions against just that collection.
What is in one
Sources — documents you imported, pages the assistant read, results from a research run. Notes — your own writing, kept alongside them rather than in a separate app. And a conversation scoped to exactly that material, so answers are drawn from your sources and nothing else.
Why not just a folder
Folders organise documents. A notebook is for the work you do with them: gathering, annotating, questioning, and coming back a week later to a set of material and a record of what you already worked out. It is the difference between a filing cabinet and a desk.
What people use them for
A study guide built from a textbook chapter and lecture notes, with generated questions to test yourself. A case file. A literature review. Planning a trip from a pile of saved pages. Preparing for a decision where the sources matter and you will need to justify the conclusion later.
The offline part
Once the sources are in, the notebook works with the radio off. Documents were embedded on the phone, notes are on the phone, and the model answering is on the phone — so a notebook is fully usable on a plane, which is generally where the reading gets done.
