Second brain: a map of what you already know
A graph of your notes where every link has a reason: the ones you drew yourself and the ones AI found between your library and the shared notebooks you can open.
Iryna runs research at a small agency. After a year she has about four hundred notes: interview summaries, screenshots of competitor pages, half-finished thoughts. A colleague shares a notebook on a new client, and on page three Iryna sees a conclusion she wrote herself eight months ago, in different words, with the opposite recommendation. Nobody noticed, because the two notes sat in different places with different tags.
Search finds words. It does not find two notes that mean the same thing, or two that argue with each other. Once a library grows past a few hundred notes, the useful connections are the ones nobody remembers to look for.
A map with a reason on every line
Iryna will pick an area to analyse: her own library, the shared notebooks she can open, or both. AI will draw the links it finds and write a reason next to each one: same topic, supporting evidence, a contradiction, a question nobody has answered. She can add links by hand, and that costs no points; neither does looking at the graph. The old note about the client will surface next to the new conclusion, with the eight-month gap visible.
This is ahead, after the AI notebook, because it relies on the same access rules. Before release we have to check that a link into a shared notebook never exposes Iryna’s private notes to her colleagues, and what happens to the graph when access to a notebook is taken away.

What is in scope
This is ahead, after the AI notebook: the graph needs the same access rules and the same source references we are building for a single notebook, so it comes second. You will pick an area, your library, the shared notebooks you can open or both, and AI will show where two notes say the same thing, where they contradict each other and where a question has no answer yet; drawing links by hand and browsing the graph will not spend points. A link to a shared notebook will not show your private notes to anyone, and before release we have to check what happens to the graph when someone’s access to a notebook is revoked.
Where it stands
This direction is in the plan but not in development yet. We will write here when work starts and when there is something to try. Until then there is no date, and we would rather say so than guess.
If this direction matters to you, tell us about the task behind it. A concrete situation changes what we build more than a vote for a feature does.
