# Spote: AI-powered notes that grow with you

> Spote is an AI-native note-taking app. Capture ideas from AI conversations, organize with buckets and tags, and retrieve notes by meaning using semantic search.

Spote is where your best AI thinking lives. Instead of losing insights to chat history, you capture notes directly from your AI conversations — and pull them back as context in future sessions. Your personal knowledge base grows smarter over time.

## How Spote works

Spote supports two core flows:

* **AI → Spote** — Tell your AI assistant to save a note. The reasoning, summary, or decision lands in Spote without you switching apps.
* **Spote → AI** — Pull your old notes into a new conversation as context. Your past thinking becomes your best prompt.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an account">
    Sign up at [spote.app](https://spote.app). No credit card required.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write your first note">
    Open the editor, write in markdown, add `#tags`, and save. Spote automatically indexes your note for semantic search.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your AI agent">
    Generate a Personal Access Token in **Settings**, then add Spote as an MCP server in your AI tool. See [Connecting AI Agents](/connecting-ai-agents).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Search by idea, not keyword">
    Use semantic search to find notes by meaning — even when you can't remember the exact words you used.
