Drawing canvas for consultants
Draw the part words cannot carry.
Some of an engagement folder is not sentences. Put a finding on an infinite canvas inside the note, right next to the writing that explains it.
Freehand drawing, shapes, arrows and boxes
The canvas sits in the note as a block, with text above and below it
Follows dark mode, so a canvas drawn at night still reads in the morning
Drawings sync with everything else on a Pro plan
Diagrams without a second app
Boxes and arrows are two clicks away instead of a context switch.
Sketch, then explain underneath
The caption you write is what makes the drawing findable later.
Draw with a pencil in hand
Rough it out on the phone, tidy it up at the desk.
A block, not a separate file
Text above, drawing in the middle, more text underneath.
Legible at night as well
The canvas follows dark mode, so a late sketch still reads in the morning.
Drawings travel too
The sketch is on the other device with everything else on a Pro plan.
Results
Three things that stop being a problem
Feature lists are easy to write and hard to care about. This is what changes for consultants.
Interviews become findings the same day
Record, transcribe, then ask what came up across the whole engagement folder.
Switch clients without losing the thread
One folder per engagement and search that works across all of them when you need a precedent.
Reuse what you learned last time
Ask your archive how you handled a similar problem two years ago.
In practice
What that looks like for consultants
A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.
Discovery week
Record every interview into the client folder and let search find the patterns.
Synthesis
Ask for the themes, check the quotes, and draft the findings in the same note.
Between engagements
Search old work for the framework you built and adapt it.
The rest of the app

Client interviews, site visits, findings and drafts in one library, so the deliverable comes out of the work you already did instead of a blank page.
