This Tana AI Agent Took Over Organising My Second Brain

Ever notice how "capture everything" quickly turns into "now I have 100 things to sort through"?

If you're anything like a lot of my clients they have a million ideas and thoughts through the day but hardly have time to sort them all out and get them to the right place. So I built an AI Agent in Tana that takes voice notes and automatically tags & organises them with one click. Imagine getting to the end of the day and hitting a button in Tana and your AI Agent organises everything in less than 30 seconds.

In today's video I'm going to show you how to set this up step by step (it'll take us about 10 minutes)

  • How to setup an autotag command that organises all your notes into taks, ideas & projects
  • A simple AI command that connects notes to projects and people
  • How to set this up to happen with a one click button on your day page.

The setup is surprisingly simple but will completely change how you think about working with your second brain. Suddenly you'll be capturing ALL THE THINGS because you know you won't be burdened by an overflowing inbox. If you use voice notes (or want to start) but hate the organization part, this one's for you.
