Modus AI - Getting Started

Modus AI is a visual note-taking tool specifically designed to help you gain a deeper understanding of complex topics, resulting in more coherent and impactful writing. If you want to solve one of the following problems, Modus AI is made for you:

• You want to improve your learning with topics you are working on.
• You want to transform your thoughts into coherent writing.
• You want a structured system to store and retrieve anything you are learning.

Fundamental Elements

The goal of Modus AI is to enhance your understanding of the material you're engaged with, not simply to accumulate more notes. We recommend beginning by learning the following three key components.

• Note: Store knowledge, thoughts, and ideas.
• Module: Understand the knowledge structure of certain topics
• Tags: Assign properties to notes.

User Interface Logic

In Modus AI, all your notes, modules, and tags form a comprehensive “knowledge network,” with Modus acting as the structured system that optimizes your thinking, learning, and writing processes. Unlike traditional folder-based tools, Modus AI serves as your personal second brain, helping you store, organize, and explore your thoughts in a way that promotes deeper comprehension and more coherent writing.
