Outliner with AI nodes and meeting-capture workflows.
Best for power users who want a graph-database notebook with AI nodes and structured meeting templates. Pricing: free / from $14/mo.
What it is
Tana is a structured outliner that treats every line as a typed node with attributes — similar to a personal Notion-meets-Roam. AI Nodes can summarize, classify, and transform content automatically. The Tana meeting capture flow uses voice-to-text for live note-taking and an AI summarization template that produces structured outputs (decisions, action items, follow-ups). Tana is power-user software with a devoted niche audience and is most useful for individual knowledge workers who want a programmable second brain.

Watch out for: Steep learning curve; product is power-user oriented; team adoption is rare outside Tana enthusiasts.
