Source collections

Give saved material a job to do.

A pile of saved files is hard to use later. Turn incoming material into a collection with clear titles, source records, and notes explaining why each item matters.

01

Choose fields that aid retrieval

A Source type can record the URL, date, topic, and the project it informs. Use a template to capture the relevant point and remaining questions.

02

Review before adding

Prepare a Block from supported source material, check the preview, and save only what belongs in the collection. Saved originals remain attached.

03

Put sources in context

Link sources to research or project notes, search across the collection, and share a selected folder or tag when someone needs the same references.

FROM IDEA TO USEFUL CONTEXT

Put it into practice.

  1. Define the collection

    Choose the source fields and note sections that will help you find and evaluate material later.

  2. Capture and verify

    Add a page, file, email, or pasted source, then compare the prepared note with the original.

  3. Connect it to active work

    Link the useful source from a project or research note and explain what it contributes.

A FEW USEFUL DETAILS

Questions, answered.

Can I collect saved email messages?

Source capture accepts saved .eml files within its limit. Email details are treated as unverified context. Embedded attachments must be added separately if you want to analyze them.

Does saving a source keep a live copy of a website?

No. A captured source is retained with the saved Block; it is not a subscription to later changes on the original website.

A PLACE TO BUILD ON

Give your next thought a home.

Start with a note. Add structure, connect an agent, and keep the useful context together.
