AI agent for journalists
Ask your notes. Get an answer.
Ask a story file a question in plain language and get the answer with the note it came from, so an hour before filing you are reading your own words instead of hunting for them. The agent can file, tag and tidy while it is in there.
Every answer points back to the note it came from, so you can check it
It can create, edit, move, tag and delete notes when you ask it to
Built in Grape AI on Pro, or plug in your own API key
Ask about one note, one folder or the whole library
Summaries from your own words
A week of meeting notes becomes three bullet points you can send on.
Tidying stops being your job
Ask it to file the loose notes into folders and add the tags you already use.
Web search in the same chat
When the answer is not in your notes, it can look it up and write it in.

Three things that stop being a problem
Feature lists are easy to write and hard to care about. This is what changes for journalists.
The quote is text before you are back at the desk
Record on the phone, get the transcript in the note, and pull the line you need straight into the draft.
Reopen a story you dropped in March
Ask your notes what you had on a subject and get the answer with the note attached.
Keep the background in the same place as the copy
Documents, PDFs, links and your own notes sit in one folder rather than four apps.
In practice
What that looks like for journalists
A few moments in a normal week where the app earns its place.
In the field
Record, tag the note with the story slug, and move on to the next call.
Back at the desk
Read the transcript, mark the usable quotes and draft in the same note.
Six months later
Search the archive by what happened rather than what you named the file.
The rest of the app
