Tana's HIDDEN AI Feature That Organises Your Notes For You

Did you know the average person spends 76 minutes every single day organising their digital information? That's over 460 hours a year just sorting, tagging, and filing stuff. It's ridiculous when you think about it - we're walking around with supercomputers in our pockets, yet most of us are still organizing notes like we're using a Filofax from the 90s.

Imagine instead: You quickly jot down "meet Sarah about marketing project next Tuesday" and your system automatically connects it to the right project, links to Sarah, and schedules it for next Tuesday. Or dropping a quick agenda item that instantly files itself under the correct meeting without you lifting a finger.

Today I'm showing you how to use Auto-Fill Fields & Commands to build a real AI Assistant that automatically organises all of your notes. No more manual sorting, tagging, or linking - just capture and let the system do the heavy lifting.

You'll learn how to:

  • Use AutoFill Fields & Commands to organise your notes instantly
  • Learn how to instantly organise your tasks, agenda items, notes & highlights.
  • Use natural language and watch AI transform that into structured and organised notes.

If you're ready for your digital tools to finally work harder than you do... this is the video.
