I am a student from Germany and I am currently using Heptabase to do research and extract information for my bachelor thesis and to organise everything. Really an AMAZING product that Alan and Ethan have created! I'm really in love with Heptabase :D
Alan, thank you for demonstrating the functions from Heptabase 101. As a user for half a year, I found this video very useful, for you provide very clear samples step by step, specially how you organize the atomic pieces of knowledge in a format of mind map. By showing how you transform your reading notes, to the scattering of thoughts of cards, into a structualized modules. You help us visualize how Heptabase works. Please keep making videos like this, which is a great help for users to find out how to make this app handy. Thanks again.
Three important points. 1- Thank you for the video. It has had many benefits. 2- I write the biggest deficiency. Doing all these operations manually is now a waste of time. All these processes are now done with artificial intelligence. Not many people waste their time manually. Artificial intelligence needs to be integrated into the product urgently. Currently Taskade, Miro, Whimsal etc. Many tools such as create mind maps with artificial intelligence. It saves serious time. This is a big shortcoming for Heptabase. This should be the first thing. I have many notes. But I don't look for information in notes anymore. Artificial intelligence is already doing better. This situation needs to be resolved urgently. 3- Heptase mobile phone and iPad usage is very bad. Too bad. I understand you. However, phone use is 7 hours a day. People come across many notes but I cannot share them directly to Heptabase from my mobile phone. This is a very bad situation. Finally, I support heptabase. One of the top 5 products so far. I think you will enter the top 3 in a short time. Good luck.
I love these videos. Every time i go back and revisit them i learn something new, and I had several aha moments when watching this one. Please keep them coming!
I appreciate your taking the time to do this for us. I look forward to the future videos. Every new "nugget" of knowledge you provide helps make Heptabase either easier to use (efficient), more effective, or both. I want to "USE" Heptabase, not take time figuring it out. Thank you for this.
Alan, I've been using Heptabase for almost a year and I learned a few tricks from this that will be very helpful as I plan out my research and book. Thanks for a great video!
Alan! This is going to help many users - both new and old. Even though I've been following along for 2+ years, I picked up some new ideas and approaches to using a Heptabase Whiteboard (I was taking notes along the way in my Heptabase app of course!) Keep up the great work and maybe throw in a cameo appearance now and again from your stellar development team!
So AWESOME! Alan you are amazing! Thank you for creating this! I really wanted a system that was built out to be able to accumulate information from PDF Books I've been learning! With all of the other features for my own whiteboards with video and audio etc. Is SOO revolutionary for me! To not have to use multiple programs is also a HUGE advantage.
1 - Thanks for the video, very helpfull. 2 - The product is INSANELY GOOD 3 - Consider a regional prices, not everyone works with US dolars and the exchange rate can be very expensive. I tried it for 7 days trial - Sadly, for now, it's too expensive and i will keep my old note taking.
I spent weeks looking for a tools to use for my research that would help me visualize information how I envision it in my head and that is the closest tool I've found that fills that purpose.

Thanks for creating this tool, it inspires the user's creativity.👍 If this tool can combine AI to summarize or synthesize the materials, it will be more convenient and powerful!
I love handouts that are a checkoff list. Would be nice if you had a "Non-Task" checkbox icon we could use. Right now when we use the checkbox its committed to a task. thanks
I know you’re a man of culture because you mentioned reading Mindstorms by Seymour Papert, Alan Kay, Bret Victor. You should have a lifetime license in pricing as well, like Procreate. I guess that’s when it’ll kick off and number of sales will cover the profit. Subscriptions turn me off.
Thank you for this video, it is great! I have a question: when you are extracting notes from your cards, is the original card changing too? If I delete a sentence, the sentence will be deleted from the source card? thanks!
Thank you so much for the amazing tool! I have a question. When I copy the existing cards from one whiteboard to another, the linkage between cards is lost, and they become two separate cards in the card library. The linkage only works when I inset the existing card from a card library. Is there any solution to this? Thank you!
Thanks! this video is so helpful。 I want to try pdf notes , to use 'tidy up' in the whiteboard , to reuse cards in different whiteboards after this video . By the way , are there any principles in the first highlighting step ?
Unrelated question. What screen recording software were you using? I'm on windows (11) and noticed you're using MacOS. I use 4k monitors and have a hard time sharing my screen with colleagues as everything is too small. I'm hoping what you were using is available for windows lol. Also, fantastic video!!
I cannot use ipad for the highlight in pdf. The worst thing is I even cannot move the pdf pages in ipad (that's mean I cannot read the pdf articles). I tried to open heptabase with ios app and a few browsers. But none of them can perform properly. The usage in ipad is so bad. Can you fix it afterwards?

這是唯一一個時間過了很久我還知道自己曾經在想什麼的筆記軟體
I am a student from Germany and I am currently using Heptabase to do research and extract information for my bachelor thesis and to organise everything. Really an AMAZING product that Alan and Ethan have created! I'm really in love with Heptabase :D
我是因為志祺77影片來的！我使用過很多不同的軟體, notion, notability, goodnote, marginNote 3, mindmap
但是你的產品是我看過最讚的！是我心目中想要的筆記軟體！
謝謝你發明這個軟體。20幾年前我的朋友告訴我:"你就像一本雜亂無章的字典，需要有人幫你裝訂起來"，我想Heptabase應該會是我的明燈。學習這個軟體對我來說相對吃力，希望我能跟小孩一起學習如何去架構起自己的知識庫。
謝謝你拍這些影片，對我來說不只是在學習Heptabase，更是在和你學習一種思考方式，這對我幫助很大🎉
Alan, thank you for demonstrating the functions from Heptabase 101.

Thanks, Alan. This is the best tool that visualizes what's happening in my mind. Heptabase is more than a product, it's pure magic!
非常敬佩 Allen，能想出這樣的軟體整合心智圖和筆記，還有類似偵探用的白板，相當卓越的設計
Three important points.
1- Thank you for the video. It has had many benefits.
2- I write the biggest deficiency. Doing all these operations manually is now a waste of time. All these processes are now done with artificial intelligence. Not many people waste their time manually.
Artificial intelligence needs to be integrated into the product urgently. Currently Taskade, Miro, Whimsal etc. Many tools such as create mind maps with artificial intelligence. It saves serious time.
This is a big shortcoming for Heptabase. This should be the first thing.
I have many notes. But I don't look for information in notes anymore. Artificial intelligence is already doing better.
This situation needs to be resolved urgently.
3- Heptase mobile phone and iPad usage is very bad. Too bad.
I understand you. However, phone use is 7 hours a day. People come across many notes but I cannot share them directly to Heptabase from my mobile phone.
This is a very bad situation.
Finally, I support heptabase.
One of the top 5 products so far. I think you will enter the top 3 in a short time.
Good luck.
I love these videos. Every time i go back and revisit them i learn something new, and I had several aha moments when watching this one. Please keep them coming!
I appreciate your taking the time to do this for us. I look forward to the future videos. Every new "nugget" of knowledge you provide helps make Heptabase either easier to use (efficient), more effective, or both. I want to "USE" Heptabase, not take time figuring it out. Thank you for this.
相當友善的介紹影片，透過案例，讓使用者領會軟體的實際使用方式。
Alan, I've been using Heptabase for almost a year and I learned a few tricks from this that will be very helpful as I plan out my research and book. Thanks for a great video!
Heptabase 與目前 notion 的差異化，
就是Heptabase屬於個人，
而notion則是以共享為主，
我自己是名工程師，
工程師常常會有共筆的動作，
大家一起維護這個知識點，
notion 因為有團隊訂閱功能，
所以是可以達到這件事情，
但Heptabase目前感覺還沒做到這件事情，
我覺得很可惜，
希望未來可以做出這件事情，
但我覺得白板式設計很符合我跳躍式思考的理念，
想放啥就放啥，
我這邊還有個小建議，
或許他可以直接輸出成例如簡報的東西就更棒了
Alan! This is going to help many users - both new and old. Even though I've been following along for 2+ years, I picked up some new ideas and approaches to using a Heptabase Whiteboard (I was taking notes along the way in my Heptabase app of course!)
Keep up the great work and maybe throw in a cameo appearance now and again from your stellar development team!
So AWESOME! Alan you are amazing! Thank you for creating this! I really wanted a system that was built out to be able to accumulate information from PDF Books I've been learning! With all of the other features for my own whiteboards with video and audio etc. Is SOO revolutionary for me! To not have to use multiple programs is also a HUGE advantage.
I have been looking for this tool for years... Amazing work guys! I am thrilled by the potential of Heptabase :)
Fantastic explanation for synthesizing information, using Heptabase.
Amazing. currently using Tana and can see this taking me to another level of context mapping of knowledge!
Super helpful!!! This is EXACTLY what I want when trying to build my own knowledge system. Thanks Alan
Fantastic intro to Heptabase!
Really appreciate for all of this using skills, make me more clear of how and better to use it, thanks Alan!
1 - Thanks for the video, very helpfull.
2 - The product is INSANELY GOOD
3 - Consider a regional prices, not everyone works with US dolars and the exchange rate can be very expensive. I tried it for 7 days trial - Sadly, for now, it's too expensive and i will keep my old note taking.
Excellent - very helpful - keep up the great work. Thanks.
Excellent video, Alan! Please keep them coming and looking forward to the one on tags.
Really useful. Thank you. More please.

因為志祺77的影片而來，天啊這款筆記可以視覺化大量資訊區塊（像是關係圖那樣）真的太符合個人需求了。一直以來換了各種筆記都覺得很難用、沒辦法做一目了然的視覺資訊很困擾。終於有這樣的工具可以用了，還可以ipad順暢打開
已試用並把一大堆人物設定跟輔助資料，做成了關係網路資料，這軟體直接解決了痛苦我至少四年的資料統整問題！（視覺藝術需要的就是這種東西啊ＱＱＱ）年費刷定了！
Super helpful! Thank you Alan!!!
Really Helpful and thank you for supporting me Happy New year 2024
Alan，this is amazing，I love heptabase😃
This looks amazing! It may be just the tool I’ve been looking for, can’t wait to try it out!
Thanks for creating this tool, it inspires the user's creativity.👍

❤ agreed
太好了，謝謝Alan
This is the tutoril I need!
問題是20年後這種二維的人機分離筆記模式是不會存在的，因為這始終不夠直覺和方便，因為技術的限制現在所有的筆記軟體都只是一個過渡期而已，因為筆記的最終目的，只是為了更快達到一個領域的mastery，但人腦目前算力在capacity, comprehension, recall, relation有所限制( 我把它稱為CCRR Metrics, 我認為這是一個比IQ更簡單明瞭且客觀衡量大腦強大程度的框架), 所以才需要筆記軟體來補足人腦還不足以應付快速增長的資訊,
可是在AI和未來人機結合的趨勢下，這四項能力都會得到前所未有的成長，以後應該是不會有所謂筆記軟體這個概念了，而是所謂的Mega Space
This is really helpful
Thanks Alan!
Thanks. It was a really inspiring video. Do you consider providing any discounts for the students?
Alan你好,想問Heptabase中的影片時間軸功能，在筆記中可否插入時間，並以link的方式連動(類似youtube底下的藍色時間駐點)?麻煩Alan!
未來會規劃相關功能～
Just discovered HEPTABASE and seems AMAZONG. I'm not very comfortable with Obsidian, lack of "tables" and dataview is an important barrier for me.

額外請問，heptabase"解構知識"的概念，是不是如同物理學說的"第一原理"? 把事物拆解到最小單位，然後 在跨領域重新建構起來? 就如同樂高積木般的跨領域建構? 謝謝
Thank you for this video, it is great! I have a question: when you are extracting notes from your cards, is the original card changing too? If I delete a sentence, the sentence will be deleted from the source card? thanks!
Thank you so much for the amazing tool! I have a question. When I copy the existing cards from one whiteboard to another, the linkage between cards is lost, and they become two separate cards in the card library. The linkage only works when I inset the existing card from a card library. Is there any solution to this? Thank you!
Beautiful app 🙏
Thanks! this video is so helpful。 I want to try pdf notes , to use 'tidy up' in the whiteboard , to reuse cards in different whiteboards after this video . By the way , are there any principles in the first highlighting step ?
so good
不错的视频，谢谢~
would love to get an Unsplash integration to easly add pictures. That would be great.
it's really helpful!!
fantastic
Unrelated question. What screen recording software were you using? I'm on windows (11) and noticed you're using MacOS. I use 4k monitors and have a hard time sharing my screen with colleagues as everything is too small. I'm hoping what you were using is available for windows lol. Also, fantastic video!!
Probably Loom
Screen Studio
game changer wow
love it !
謝謝解釋。很清楚 ：Ｐ
Thx. Amazing app 👍
can you make a feature that allows you to export certain tables
遇到一个问题，就是拖动卡片里的文字出来变成一个新的card之后，原本的文字会变成带有link的蓝色文字。如果之后我想去掉这个link的关联，找不到相应的便捷操作，让我很苦恼。所以就是当我建立的link，原文变成蓝色字之后，这个link不知道怎么样取消、断开，让蓝色文本变回普通文本。
是不是assistant功能還沒有上綫呢？爲什麽左邊欄我們沒有Task這個功能啊？謝謝
I cannot use ipad for the highlight in pdf. The worst thing is I even cannot move the pdf pages in ipad (that's mean I cannot read the pdf articles). I tried to open heptabase with ios app and a few browsers. But none of them can perform properly. The usage in ipad is so bad. Can you fix it afterwards?

Hepta da shit. Notion is dead to me.
But that I little expensive for me[sad]
5:19 It's great, wonderful, it really is, but truth is, 2 years is more than enough to outdate this app.
我己訂購一年並使用 Heptabase 來建立相關筆記，希望可以再多出一些操作影片或是由其他人提供操作過程，或是以訪問的方式來參與討論可以有更多不同的想法
Wow~ This note program is so amazing.
Amazing
