## Best for

- Quick capture before filing
- Mixed written notes and scans
- People who avoid complex setup

## Not designed for

- Building a company wiki
- Database-heavy project management
- A rigid folder-only archive

## Workflow

1. Capture a note before worrying about its final location.
2. Review the suggested group.
3. Correct the destination when context is missing.
4. Use the clean group for review, summary, or export.

## From unsorted capture to useful groups

The fastest capture system often creates the messiest inbox. Pocket Orbit makes classification a reviewable suggestion instead of requiring a folder decision before every note.

## Folders, tags, and AI suggestions

Folders are predictable, tags are flexible, and AI suggestions reduce setup. Pocket Orbit emphasizes suggestions with correction rather than pretending context is always obvious.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I correct the suggested organization?

Yes. Organization should be reviewed when a note could reasonably belong to more than one topic.

### Is this the same as a Notion database?

No. Notion is designed for configurable workspaces and databases. Pocket Orbit prioritizes quick student capture and lighter organization.
