Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Thoughts.do and how it can transform your workflow.
What is Thoughts.do? ▼
Thoughts.do is an AI-powered thought management platform that captures your ideas in seconds and transforms them into actionable outputs. It's not a notes app—it's a Cognitive Load Transfer Engine that captures ideas before you have to structure them, then uses AI to organize them into projects, generate PRDs, and create specifications.
How does the AI work? ▼
Thoughts.do uses context-aware AI that goes far beyond basic note taking. It aggregates context from your connected tools — your calendar, GitHub repos, Linear projects, Todoist tasks, and a growing list of integrations — alongside your capture history, timing signals, and semantic patterns. This multi-source intelligence means the AI truly understands WHO you are, WHAT you mean, and WHERE each idea fits — then generates product requirements, technical specs, and actionable summaries automatically.
Is my data private and secure? ▼
Yes. Your data is stored securely in Supabase with enterprise-grade encryption. We take privacy seriously and never use your data to train AI models. All processing is done with your explicit consent, and you maintain full control over your thoughts and generated content.
What platforms are supported? ▼
Thoughts.do is built with React Native and Expo, making it available on both iOS and Android. This means you can capture and manage your thoughts on any mobile device, with a seamless experience across platforms.
Is it free? ▼
Thoughts.do uses a freemium model. The free tier gives you access to core thought capture and basic AI organization. For power users, we offer Pro and Team plans with advanced features like unlimited projects, priority processing, and team collaboration capabilities.
How is this different from notes apps like Notion or Apple Notes? ▼
Unlike Notion, which requires you to structure your thoughts before capturing them, Thoughts.do captures first and structures later. Unlike Apple Notes, which just stores your thoughts, Thoughts.do actively transforms them into actionable outputs like PRDs and specifications. As an AI-powered idea capture app, we bridge the gap between raw ideas and structured work — with context-aware intelligence that understands your intent and intelligent grouping that discovers connections you haven't seen yet.
How does the AI understand what I really mean? ▼
Unlike other AI note taking tools that only look at the words you typed, Thoughts.do pulls context from multiple sources — your full capture history, time and location signals, semantic patterns, and existing projects. A 3AM idea about 'weekend plans' is understood differently than the same phrase during a Monday meeting. This context-aware approach means the AI builds a real understanding of your intentions, not just surface-level keywords.
Can Thoughts.do find connections between random, unrelated notes? ▼
Yes — this is one of Thoughts.do's key strengths as an AI thought organizer. You might capture 'banana is delicious' one day and 'convenience store is far' the next. They seem totally unrelated, but our intelligent grouping engine discovers hidden connections. Combined with 'fruit store closes early,' the AI might synthesize a late-night delivery business opportunity. We don't just tag notes — we find patterns you haven't articulated yet and group them into coherent projects.
What happens to my thoughts after I capture them? ▼
Your thoughts are processed by our context-aware AI, which pulls context from your connected tools (calendar, GitHub, Linear, Todoist, and more) to extract key information, identify patterns, and group them into Topics. You review and approve AI-proposed Topics, then polish them conversationally with AI as your cofounder. When you're satisfied, click Build — and AI generates designs, writes code, and deploys. Your original thoughts stay intact for reference.
Can I export my data? ▼
Yes. You have full control over your data and can export your thoughts, projects, and generated outputs in standard formats. We believe in data portability and want you to feel confident that your ideas are yours to keep.
What tools does Thoughts.do connect to? ▼
Currently Linear and Todoist, with calendar, GitHub, and many more integrations on the roadmap. Thoughts.do aggregates context from your connected tools to understand the full picture of your work and life — so AI handles the tedious organizational work and you focus on the most meaningful parts: giving feedback, polishing ideas, and approving plans.
