Hello! 👋 We are very excited to share with you Supernotes 2 – including 100+ new features and improvements to our fast and reliable note-taking + knowledge-sharing app. My co-founder (@acnebs) and I work together remotely from London / Bali and have built Supernotes entirely ourselves – design, code, marketing, support – you name it, we’ve done it! We set out to build a note-taking app that reflects how we think. We don’t think in files & folders – we think in bits and pieces of interconnected thoughts. On Supernotes these thoughts are represented as notecards, which are themselves nestable, taggable and linkable. Our goal is to help people build more meaningful and useful connections to their digital knowledge. With Supernotes 2, we’re taking a big step forward in making that vision a reality with the introduction of many highly requested features, like: 🧑‍💻 Dedicated Apps – for Mac, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS (subscriber-only early access) 📝 New Editor – we’ve completed overhaul our Markdown / LaTeX math editor 📆 Daily Collection – for daily journalling and tracking your progress 📰 Broadsheet View – view your cards like a broadsheet newspaper 🕸 Graph View – visualise as a 3D and 2D graph view Get started for free now – all our features are included! Or if you’d like to support us and get a headstart with Supernotes, we are currently offering 30min 1-on-1 onboarding calls with our Unlimited Yearly Plan – grab it now for 25% off. Free your thoughts! Tobias

@twhetton Congrats on the launch Tobias! Supernotes looks quite cool! I wonder how do you build more meaningful and useful connections?
Tobias Whetton
Thanks @mervecankizcoruh. What you would have previously written as one long Word document or Notion page, on Supernotes our interface prompts you to break it down into 10 or so notecards. By breaking your knowledge down into smaller chunks this offers a lot more possibilities to connect it together – we often compare it to building something out of lego. e.g. If you take notes in meetings, you might write a 'takeaways' notecard at the end of each meeting and tag it with #takeaways. If you want to review your month all you have to do is click the tag, to apply a filter and see all your takeaways from all your different meetings alongside each other.

@twhetton Sounds reasonable. Thanks for the answer. We also emphasize building meaningful connections at Producter — that's why I was curious about it. It becomes hard to fill in the blanks for users when they read "meaningful connections" :)

(@acnebs @twhetton Congrats! Looks like a really useful product. I am an avid note taker but I am yet to figure out the best way to organize everything. I think this might be it!

Supernotes is simply the best note taking app that there is out there! I am doing a PhD in biomedical engineering, and I use it extensively every day to summarise papers, organise tasks and pipelines, write codes, and keep track of what I’m learning. The user interface is so easy, elegant and straightforward to use, and they’ve thought about everything one needs to easily record and share ideas. Simply well well done

I’m so excited for this release ! I love this app, it has been amazing for my studies (Im a masters student studying film at Oxford university). I am constantly researching for my course and coming up with my own ideas and concepts. Supernotes has been incredible for organising all my thoughts, keeping track of my class notes, and my research. I never thought I’d find something so easy to cater to my brain!!

I've switched from Google Keeps to Supernotes over the course of the last year - the use of markdown was the initial attraction, but the UI just keeps getting better and better, and at this point all of my notes are on Supernotes! I've also been lucky enough to test out the early access Android app and it is fantastic, definitely a lasting and attractive solution for me!
Victor Metelskiy
That's awesome! Definitely best note-taking app on the market. *Check out the Graph View, it's amazing!
Anton Cherkasov
It's incredible app. Impressive new update, especially, broadsheet view. Congrats on the launch!
David Lo Dico
Love this app sinve v1! Excited to try this one out
Tomas Antonok
Very cool! Congrats.
Alex Robertson
Excited for this - I used supernotes during medical school to organise my notes and haven’t found anything better since. The sharing aspect is especially useful and the ui is clean and easy to use.

@tobias_whetton This looks like an interesting new tool in the tools for thought space. Is there a web version available?
Tobias Whetton
@absamma Yes we started out with a web app. You can jump into Supernotes on any popular modern browser such as Chrome, Safari and Firefox.

Absolutely amazed to see how far supernotes has come. I've been using supernotes as my centralised note taking solution for 2+ years and this new update is a game changer. New editor ✅️ Graph view ✅️ Broadsheet ✅️ Target dates for notes ✅️ Plus more... Is really rewarding to be able to see the entire graph network of my 2000+ notes. Looking back, all my old note taking solutions seem ludicrously outdated now 😅 This update really takes supenotes to the next level and I thoroughly recommended getting started if you haven't already.

I've been using Supernotes for my law degree and it's been so helpful for organising notes. Being able to create links between cards has been the most useful feature, helping me keep track of my learning and connecting different concepts. Am super impressed by the recent update too! very fast and with exciting features

I just created a Product Hunt account to show appreciation for Supernotes. I consider myself a heavy note-taker, and tested all possible approaches, from TiddlyWiki to Obsidian, Notion, Craft, and back. None of them really stick to me - but Supernotes takes a different approach, subtly nudging you towards collecting short, meaningful notes, and not just literal representations of whatever you're researching. The new 2.0 editor is just fantastic, I haven't yet come across such a great editing experience, it really gets out of your way (and even has LaTeX support!). The daily view is just superb, the customisable view options... And last but not least, the people behind it are top of the game. I really couldn't believe how FAST they came back to me after every question / suggestion (even as low as 5 mins), and just taking a look at their forum tells you the care that goes into its development. Best of luck to the team, and keep up the good work!
Tobias Whetton
@ivanm thanks so much for sharing your journey with Supernotes! We are super happy that you've been enjoying the new update. Looking forward to sharing more with you soon 🙌🏼
Jenny Romano
Very very cool - I love that you can connect ideas and see them on a graph - it definitely makes organizing your notes easier! Congratulations on the launch!

The app looks beautiful. Is there a way to transfer notes from GDocs / OneNote to the app? Having all notes in one place would be great while using Supernotes.
Tobias Whetton
@diveshsood Our current import supports Google Keep, Notion, Obsidian, Roam and other markdown files. We are working on building out our Import functionality to support traditional long-form processors such as GDocs, OneNote, Word etc. Although we highly recommend manually adding the information into Supernotes and reworking it for our notecard format 🤗

Congrats on the launch Tobias super impressive product
Anna Filou
Love how this looks and seems to work but… is it not possible to access and edit our notes offline?
Tobias Whetton
@anna_0x Thanks Anna. We've been working towards fully supporting offline. If you lose internet connection, you will still be able to access / search / filter your notes if the app is already open. Editing offline is our highest priority right now.
Anna Filou
@twhetton thanks! It’s really important for me and presumably many others to be able to interact with my notes offline. It doesn’t matter how good the tool is, my internet connection often isn’t and notes are really personal things I want to always have access to.
Farokh Shahabi
Looks super promising! Love the UI How will you add data read from outside data sources like Gsheet or Formaloo?
Tobias Whetton
Thanks @farokh_shahabi, we are planning to launch better integrations later this year so you can create / sync notecards with these sources.
Ferdinand
Congrats on the launch! The app looks great and feels very smooth. It's a nice idea to organize notes and knowledge via linked cards. And i especially like that it's markdown based. We've built a few integrations to export notes from podcasts, would be great to learn more about your APIs :)
Kevin Smith
I know a lot of note-taking apps, but I hadn't heard of this one before. Great that you launched here! Best of luck today!
