The Knowledge System is where everything you save in Saner.ai lives and stays organized.

It brings folders, notes, tags, and shared content into one structured workspace, so you can:

  • Find information quickly

  • See how ideas are connected

  • Act on your knowledge without digging or context switching

The system is designed to scale with you. As your notes and projects grow, your workspace stays clear, navigable, and easy to manage - without turning into a messy archive.


What the Knowledge System helps you do

  • Keep all your knowledge in one place

  • Organize information in a way that feels natural

  • Move between notes, ideas, and resources with minimal friction

  • Collaborate with others without losing structure


How the Knowledge System is structured

The Knowledge System is located on the left sidebar. It is made up of three core sections: Folders, Tags, and Shared with me.


1. Folders

Folders help you organize notes and documents using a familiar, hierarchical structure - similar to folders on your computer.

Use folders to:

  • Group-related notes and documents

  • Create clear project or topic areas

  • Keep your workspace structured at a high level

Folders work best when you want clear ownership and boundaries between sets of information.

How to think about folders

You donโ€™t need to stress about perfect folder organization.

Folders are meant to give you a quick, high-level view of your notes - not to be a rigid system you have to maintain.

If you need to find something:

  • Skai can search across all your notes, folders, and synced content

  • You donโ€™t need to remember where something is stored

Think of folders as:

  • A fast way to browse

  • A lightweight structure for visibility

  • Not a requirement for finding information

The Connector folder

Thereโ€™s a Connector folder that lives inside the Knowledge section. It stores content synced through the Connector feature.

The content stored in the Connector folder includes:

  • Emails

  • Calendar events

  • Google Docs

  • Slack

  • โ€ฆ

Anything brought in through a connector is automatically saved here


2. Tags

Tags let you categorize and connect notes across different folders.

Use tags to:

  • Link related ideas that live in different folders

  • Add flexible labels like topics, themes, or statuses

  • Find related notes quickly

Tags are designed for cross-cutting connections, where one note belongs to multiple contexts.


3. Shared With Me

Shared With Me shows all notes and folders that other Saner.ai users have shared with you.

This section helps you:

  • Access shared knowledge in one place

  • Collaborate without losing track of content

  • Keep shared notes separate from your personal workspace

Everything shared with you stays organized and easy to revisit.
