Rediscovered this tool today (March 2022) after years of not using it. It's nearly perfect now - so close! Snipping quotes and images and keeps the reference/citation too - just in a couple of clicks (if it was 1 click it would be perfect). Insert your clipped notes into a google doc, gmail message, and anything else in chrome. My new best friend. And if you ever buy a tool because of the team behind it, this is the one for you. Check out videos from Jo Wiebe (Copyhackers) - highly recommended. Unbeatable I think.

Great tool for researching content, especially for tagging text that falls under certain themes. I'd love if you could easily autofill tags so you don't have to fully retype them each time but other than that it's 100%

It's an amazing product. And free for all. I'm not sure if it's beneficial to the seasoned writer/researcher/content creator but for a noob like me it's a Godsend. I would have never gotten organized and efficient had it not been for the airstory team. Now it's time to learn to author effectively. Any advice on that one?
