We undertook hours of analytics parsing this month in search of an updated answer to "which note/task apps are generating the most heat lately?" The short answer: @AnytypeLabs, @amplenote, and @CapacitiesHQ. Most surprising: the (relative) dip in @obsdmd. Unclear why though?

Our project for the month: cataloging how AI is being integrated by all the note apps. Any other killer AI features you think deserve to be cataloged?

We've completed the table of 2023's biggest-upgrade-by-month for three of the note apps that generated the greatest user interest in the past year (see data in previous tweet). A version of table with live links is available upon request.

The award for biggest YoY growth in user interest goes to @reflectnotes, which went from 8th place in 2023 to 4th place in 2024. Great year for this team! 🏆

Hint: Among the top 10 of this year, **4** of the note apps didn't make last year's top 10.

@bundlednotes @StandardNotes @reflectnotes @logseq @NotionHQ @GoodnotesApp @remnote @craftdocsapp @obsdmd @amplenote This was for the 3 final weeks of December and the 1st week of January 2023. This year we got about 60% more visitors in the data.

The top 10 note apps people were most excited about (based on hits) at this time last year: 10. @bundlednotes 9. @StandardNotes 8. @reflectnotes 7. @logseq 6. @NotionHQ 5. @GoodnotesApp 4. @remnote 3. @craftdocsapp 2. @obsdmd 1. @amplenote Guesses on how it changed YoY?

It was a crazy productive year for the top 3rd gen note taking apps! https://t.co/t7kA05bYpU Any @obsdmd users who could create a list of the biggest improvements by month + a link to explain each, so @williambharding can complete this table? 🙏

The more open loops you have running in your mind the more stressed & overwhelmed you feel A common misconception is that you have to finish the task to close the loop You don’t & often you can't! Another way to close a loop is to write it down (so you can revisit it later)

Notetaking is like forming an alliance between your past, present, and future selves You’re putting together a dream team of creative collaborators leveraging everything you’ve ever known and will ever know

It's unprecedented how much @logseq has gotten done in their first 100k Diff Delta. Typically, an app good enough for widespread acclaim requires 300-500k DD (~3 years of a strong full time dev). They've built a much-beloved tool while changing very little code vs peers 🧵

Our all-time #1 audience-requested "Note app to index," with 91 votes tallied is the old classic, @TiddlyWiki. We're excited to report that it's now live! https://t.co/4spaXEtB2a This marks our 29th app indexed. What should be 30th? @culturedcode? @OmniFocus? @CapacitiesHQ?

New blog: "Which 2022 note apps sparked most curiosity? 12 months' data"

New from Dept of Circumstantial Data: which note apps have we cataloged most new features in over the past three months? 1. @craftdocsapp 2. @amplenote 3. @nimbuswebinc 4. @Taskade 5. @reflectnotes We could create a feed of newly launched features by app if enough request it

Note-taking is simple. The complexity of note-taking comes when we want to learn from our notes. Instead of explaining how note-taking works, explain how you learn from the notes you take.

Congratulations @logseq for launching the iPad ios app. Finally, long wait but still ahead of Roam. Check out @creativerly @TfTHacker @elizabutlermd

When I grow up I want to be like @noteappsinfo ! very cool. compare 4 apps at a time

@gobino I like this clear summary of each of these tools. @williambharding and his @amplenote team have put together a wonderfully comprehensive site that compares 27 note-taking apps across hundreds of attributes, for those wanting to dive in deep:
