Structure with supertags
Add reusable fields and behavior to tagged nodes
Tana is a node-based knowledge workspace built for turning quick notes into connected, structured information. It is particularly good at combining fast outlining with flexible databases and reusable workflows.
Tana treats every note as an addressable node rather than a page. Supertags add fields and behavior to those nodes, turning rough outlines into lightweight databases without separating writing from structure. The result suits people who think in bullets but still want connected records, reusable templates, and automatically updating views.
The free plan is useful for learning the system and maintaining a personal workspace. Paid tiers raise AI allowances and unlock more advanced usage, with the first paid option starting around $8 per month on annual billing. Tana works best for committed knowledge workers and small teams willing to design their own conventions. It is less comfortable as a drop-in notes app.
