Heptabase 4+

The design of Heptabase has been very focused from the ground up on solving challenges that arise in the workflows of research and centralizing many sources of information into a workspace where they can be used to document and compile thought processes, notes, and ideas. At a first glance, it may seem to have some features that are similar to other apps like Notion or Obsidian, but this accomplishes things that the others either cannot do or Heptabase does it without the friction of using some of the other tools, which allows for a flow of research and thoughts that is hard to get elsewhere. I’m currently using it to research multiple different fields that I am new to, and the workflow that is possible here is making this seamless and is expediting the process. The iPhone app is a work in progress but the development team makes rapid progress on both the desktop and mobile versions of the software.

I have tried many note-taking apps in the past. Started with Notability, then Agenda, tried Scrintal for a bit, then got into Notion (heavy), Obsidian came and went, and MiraNote was great for visual learning, but nothing really stuck…until Heptabase! It’s obvious to see I got sucked in to the shiny object syndrome when it came to choosing a notes app that worked for me. Why Heptabase stuck is because its easy to visualize what I’m trying to learn while also feeling free to capture everything that’s important to me. It’s just EASY. The learning curve is not too steep. And, I’m finding I’m retaining more of the information I research and write about. If you’re looking for an all-inclusive, one stop shop note taking app, you’ve found it. Would love to see more AI integration but otherwise I’m enjoying it!

*I know it may sound like they paid me to write this, but promise you it’s just that good! TRUST.*

I’ve been using Heptabase desktop software for couple of months. It makes me happy with taking notes, helping me organize the info and develop a logical knowledge-net super efficiently when I am learning a new subject. The new mobile app is also great. I love the simple but efficient features for taking notes on the mobile and the seamless sync between the app and software.
