Eden includes a markdown editor for writing content, taking notes, and drafting ideas — all in the same workspace as your research, videos, and AI chats.

Creating a Note

There are several ways to create a new note:

From the Quick Create Bar

1. Click Note in the quick create bar at the top of your workspace

2. Choose a folder (or leave in root)

3. Start writing

From the Sidebar

1. Right-click on a folder

2. Select Note

3. Start writing

On a Canvas

1. Select Note in the menu bar

2. Or add from your workspace using the + icon

3. A new note appears on your canvas

The Note Editor

Eden's note editor supports Markdown — a simple way to format text using symbols.

Basic Formatting

Don't know Markdown? Just write normally — the editor also has formatting buttons for bold, italic, headings, and lists.

Quick Notes vs. Structured Documents

Quick Notes

For fast ideas you don't want to lose. When you start a new note, you can hit backspace to remove the heading — this lets you jot down a thought without worrying about titles or structure.

Great for:

• Random ideas

• Quick to-dos

• Fleeting thoughts you'll organize later

Structured Documents

For content you're actually creating — blog posts, newsletters, scripts, outlines.

Great for:

• Blog posts and articles

• Video scripts

• Project outlines

• Meeting notes

• Research summaries

Notes on Canvas

Notes really shine when you use them on Canvas. You can:

• See your outline while researching — Have your script visible alongside YouTube videos and AI chats

• Connect notes to AI — Drag a note to an AI chat and ask for feedback, expansion, or editing help

• Build ideas visually — Arrange multiple notes to map out a project

Using AI with Your Notes

Get feedback on your writing

1. Create a note with your draft

2. Add it to a Canvas

3. Connect it to an AI chat

4. Ask: "Review this draft and suggest improvements"

Expand an outline

1. Write a rough outline in a note

2. Connect it to AI

3. Ask: "Expand this outline into a full first draft"

Summarize research into notes

1. Connect your research (videos, PDFs, links) to AI

2. Ask: "Summarize the key points from these sources"

3. Copy the output into a new note

Organizing Your Notes

Use folders

Keep notes organized alongside related files. A project folder might contain:

• Research videos

• Reference PDFs

• Your outline note

• Your draft note

• A Canvas tying it all together

Use clear titles

Good: "Q4 Campaign - Script v2" Not helpful: "Untitled" or "notes"

Archive old notes

Move completed or outdated notes to an Archive folder rather than deleting them.

See Organizing with Folders for more tips.
