Heptabase

Today, we’re excited to announce that the AI Tutor feature is officially out of public beta! In the latest version, we’ve granted 1,000 AI Tutor credits to all Pro, Premium, and PremiumPlus subscribers. These credits will allow you to start a new course and complete a few lessons, giving you a taste of how AI Tutor can transform the way you learn in the AI era. Please note that these credits will **expire** on April 22, 2026, so you have about two weeks to try it out and let us know what you think! Once you run out of your granted credits, if you want to use AI Tutor more but don’t necessarily need everything included in the Premium plan (unlimited basic AI chats and PDF parsing) or the PremiumPlus plan (a 33% discount on all AI credits), you can enable on-demand usage and set a monthly spending limit. Finally, we want to share a bit more about the product direction we’re heading toward. From the very beginning, Heptabase has been a company dedicated to inventing the best way to learn and do research. In the AI era, where AI possesses more knowledge than any human in history, we see a clear path to upgrading Heptabase into a service that can help you achieve any learning and research goal: - We, as humans, should spend most of our time reading, thinking, asking, practicing, and making the decisions that truly matter to us. - AI agents, on the other hand, should spend most of their time teaching us, guiding our research, organizing our knowledge bases, executing our tasks, and solving our problems at scale. To achieve this, we currently have two major tracks in our product roadmap: - The first track is to continuously improve the reading, thinking, and practicing experience for human (e.g., an upgraded mobile PDF reader, web annotation, EPUB reader, handwriting support, better whiteboards, flashcards, etc.). We also want to ensure that all this knowledge and understanding can translate into the important decisions you make in your life and career. - The second track focuses on building powerful AI agents with long-term memory. These agents will understand the best way to teach you, guide your direction in your learning and research, find and read high-quality sources, and take notes to organize in your knowledge base. They will even be able to run code, conduct experiments, and transform their findings into written content, explainer audios and videos, and interactive web cards. We believe both tracks are equally important, and we are investing heavily in them. We’ll spend more time writing about this in the coming months, but in the meantime, we encourage you to try out AI Tutor and let me know what you think!

@alxcnwy You can use your own agent with Heptabase CLI as well! support.heptabase.com/en/articles/14…

@claliclo Yes.

@Heptabase Can my other agents edit cards via CLI?

Agent Mode is now available in Heptabase AI! It can now edit and create cards, read images, follow mention links, read sub-whiteboards, and explore your knowledge base more deeply. This means better answers and less manual work.

More capabilities are coming soon, including editing whiteboards, drawing connections, adding tags, and managing properties. Try it out and let us know what you think.

In the latest version, you can highlight and annotate PDF cards on your mobile app. Both iOS and Android are supported!

Hi everyone, in the latest version, you can now publish individual cards and share them on social media with one click. You can use it to share any notes and files, as well as the lesson materials created by the AI tutor!

Following last week’s release of the Heptabase CLI, today we’ve had the official Heptabase CLI Skills cooked. With these skills installed, agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor can use CLI commands more effectively and avoid common hallucinations and mistakes. Get Started: github.com/heptameta/hept… We’ll keep updating these skills as we expand the CLI’s capabilities. If you find something useful or have feedback, feel free to share with us!

@dishant_ic It already can add cards.

@Heptabase i want my agent to be able to add cards while i'm working, not just look things up. that's the real workflow shift.

Today, we're excited to release the Heptabase CLI — a new way for external AI agents to interact with your local Heptabase knowledge base from the terminal. Once enabled (Settings > AI Features > CLI), any AI coding agent (e.g., Claude Code, Codex) can: - Create, read, and edit note cards and journals - Search your Card Library - Manage tags - Read your AI Tutor courses, lessons, and chat history This is just the first step; we'll keep expanding the CLI surface so AI agents can act on your knowledge at the same depth that you can. If you build something interesting with it, feel free to share with our community!

In the latest version, you can export the whiteboard as an image!

AI Tutor is now available in the latest version of Heptabase!

If you've created templates in the desktop app before, you can now use them directly in the latest version of the mobile app!

In the latest version, you can paste web links into bookmark blocks and mention nodes! You can also easily save a web link to the card library directly from its bookmark block so you can access it offline in the future!

In the latest version of the mobile app, you can add a home screen widget to search inside Heptabase, quickly write ideas, and record voice notes!

In the latest version, you can rotate the mindmap into a vertical layout!

In the latest version, you can highlight and annotate text on note cards!

In the latest version, we’ve introduced the Web Card: save full website snapshots with one click so you can view them offline, search them across your knowledge base, and connect them on whiteboards with your notes.

In the latest version, we’re excited to introduce AI actions for cards! You can now hover over any card on the whiteboard and pick an AI action to run on it—like translating, summarizing, or creating a mind map from the card’s content. You can also create your own custom AI actions, so you don’t have to type the same prompt again and again. For example, you can set up a “Study Guide” action with your preferred format—then anytime you click Study Guide, AI will generate it instantly. We can’t wait to see what kinds of actions you create—feel free to share your favorites with us!
