Heptabase Freemium

What is Heptabase?

Heptabase is built for people who need to manage massive amounts of research and complex ideas. Moving away from rigid, nested folders, Heptabase presents an infinite visual whiteboard. You organize your information inside atomic text “cards” and arrange them visually. The integrated AI chat can read your entire whiteboard, helping you synthesize research, find hidden connections, and write summaries grounded in your notes.

Product Features

• Infinite Whiteboard Canvas: Map out, group, and connect your notes visually to see the macro structure of your projects.
• Context-Aware AI Chat: Attach specific cards or entire whiteboards to the AI chat to summarize facts and brainstorm structural outlines.
• Split-Screen PDF Reader: Read PDFs alongside your whiteboard, letting you extract highlights directly into visual cards.

Product Characteristics

• Offline-First & Fast: Blazing-fast performance with native local storage and instant cross-device synchronization.
• High-Minded Note Linking: Built on bi-directional links (similar to Obsidian) to form a dense, searchable personal knowledge graph.
• Structure without Chaos: Strikingly balances visual freedom with clean database tables and list outlines.

Application Scenarios

• Complex Thesis Research: Dropping dozens of academic PDFs onto a canvas and using AI to map out literature reviews.
