Note Analyzer

The Note Analyzer turns a free-form note into a list of tasks and a structured project — all from one click.

How to trigger​

Click the lightning bolt button in the top-right of the note pane (next to the Record and Share buttons).

The analyzer does not run automatically. It only runs when you ask.

What you'll see​

A panel slides in from the right with two sections:

Project preview (top)​

Cadeo always proposes a project — name, description, and sections. The fields are pre-filled but editable. If your note is mixed (e.g. design thoughts and a few personal todos), Cadeo picks the dominant theme as the project name and mentions the mix in the description; you can rewrite either field before saving.

Click Create project to:

  • Create the project with the proposed (or edited) name and description
  • Add all detected tasks under the right sections
  • Link the project back to the source note

You'll see one calm snackbar — "Creating project, sections and tasks" with a small spinner — that updates to "Created project [name] with N tasks" once everything is saved.

Detected tasks (below)​

Each detected task has an individual Create button. Use this when you only want one or two of the suggestions, not a whole project. Each created task is linked back to the source note.

If you create individual tasks first and then click "Create project", only the remaining (un-created) tasks are added to the project.

Priority​

Detected tasks are tagged with a priority based on cues in your text:

  • "urgent", "asap", "blocker" → P1 (high)
  • default → P3 (low)
  • "someday", "maybe" → P3 (low)

You can change priority on each task after creation in the usual way.

Plan availability​

Desktop users always have it for free because the AI runs locally on your machine.

What if I'm out of daily AI quota?​

Free and Personal plans have a daily request cap. If you hit it, the analyzer panel shows a "Daily AI quota reached" message. Three options:

  • Wait until tomorrow (the cap resets at midnight UTC)
  • Upgrade your plan
  • Add your own API key (BYOK) — when BYOK is configured, the daily cap is lifted because the cost is yours, not Cadeo's

Pro plans have unlimited AI requests by default.

Tips​

  • The AI works best on notes with a few clear lines per task. Stream-of-consciousness reflection produces fewer task suggestions than a "three things to do today" list — that's by design.
  • The proposed project name is a starting point. If you don't like it, edit before clicking Create.
  • The Create button on each task creates it as a standalone task linked to the note, with no project. Use this for one-off captures.
