Skai (short for Sidekick AI) is the built-in AI assistant inside Saner.ai. It works directly with your notes, tasks, and daily context to help you retrieve information, organize work, think through ideas, and take action.
Unlike generic chatbots, Skai is tightly connected to your personal workspace and uses your notes and tasks as its source of truth. It is designed to support both knowledge management and day-to-day task management.
What Skai Can Do
Skai supports four core areas: information retrieval, knowledge synthesis, task management, and workspace maintenance.
1. Information Retrieval (Contextual Search)
Skai can instantly retrieve information from:
Notes (daily, project, or topic-based)
Tasks and to-do lists
Synced or related content across your workspace
It uses semantic understanding rather than keyword matching, allowing it to interpret intent and surface the most relevant information - even when you donβt remember exact wording.
2. Knowledge Synthesis & Insight Generation
Skai understands relationships across your notes and can:
Connect related ideas automatically
Highlight patterns and cross-references
Synthesize multiple notes into clear summaries or insights
This helps transform scattered notes into a structured understanding without manual tagging or linking.
3. Note Creation & Organization
Skai supports:
Create and edit notes through chat or direct input
Tag and organize your notes into folders
Link notes and suggest tags or storage locations
It adapts to your workflow instead of forcing a fixed system.
4. Task & To-Do Management
Skai enables full task handling inside your notes:
Create tasks from conversations, notes, or brainstorming sessions
Add due dates, reminders, and recurrence to any task
Update, mark the task as complete. But users will need to click the βApplyβ button for the suggested changes to take effect
Tasks created through Skai are placed in the daily note by default.
This keeps planning and execution connected in one place.
5. Reasoning, Planning & Brainstorming Support
Skai goes beyond answering questions. It can:
Reason with your existing notes and context
Help plan projects, outlines, or research
Assist with brainstorming and idea development
Suggest next steps based on your goals and history
6. Information Summarization
Skai can summarize:
Individual notes
Groups of related notes
Mixed structured and unstructured content
You can select specific sources to ask Skai via the β+β button on the chat bar
Summaries are written in clear, human-readable language to support review, decision-making, and knowledge reuse.
7. Smart Inbox suggestions
Skai actively helps keep your Saner inbox organized by:
Summarizing new notes
Creating tasks from notes when appropriate
Suggesting categories, tags, or locations
This reduces manual cleanup while keeping your knowledge base usable.
8. Proactive planning
Skai automatically goes through your information on Saner.AI (notes, tasks, emails,β¦) and suggests a daily plan every day on the homepage. This can include overdue tasks, high-priority tasks, or hidden insights from your notes.
This helps you start the day easily without overwhelm
9. Future Updates
Soon, Skai will also be able to
Executing actions across multiple notes
Merging or deduplicating content
