Getting Started Guide
How to Use Noded
Well, to start, just be you! :) Start typing (and soon we will give you easy buttons to integrate to other note taking apps / other apps you use to capture information). The magic starts as we identify companies and people in your notes and highlight them (you can also add your own tags as per the below). Why is this happening? This is creating your knowledge graph (think of this as your second brain). The knowledge graph is building associations around the companies, people and topics in your life as this mimics how our memory works. This drives the ability for Noded to prepare you for meetings, drive and track action, update core systems, etc. This is the “second you”. Superpowers around recall, getting things done and updating those pesky applications that need our information. Your own personal chief of staff!
You can also add your own tags. Simply highlight a company, person or topic we don’t pick up. You will be prompted to create a company (#), person (@) or topic (insert) and voila, this is now part of your knowledge graph.
Integrations
We also highly recommend integrating (only requires simple oauth) your calendar, google docs, google tasks, CRM, and x, y, z (each one of these should be a hyperlink that walks you through the integration). These allow us to:
- provide daily briefing documents (example) of your meetings with key facts, who is in the meeting, actions you need to drive / get done, etc - just like a personal chief of staff would do
- highlight key actions for the day, week, etc
- add pertinent aspects to your knowledge graph for future reference
- update opportunity records simply based on your notes (versus having to login to the system)
- and so much more cool stuff to come
Tasks
As you are in notes, you can easily capture tasks for you and anyone else. Start your task list by simply selecting and capture the task. If it is a task for someone else, just type their name into the task, i.e. ”Steve really needs to stop being lazy” and we will let Steve know to stop being lazy (if he is in Noded) and if he isn’t in Noded simply enter his email into the prompt and send him his action / invite in him. And in 3 days when that task you created is due and you have 0 idea what the context is? Just click on the note icon beside the task to remind yourself why you needed to do it:) Done!
Meetings
All of the Zoom, Google Meet, Gong, Otter, etc transcripts and summary documents you get during and after meetings that I have read 0% of (don’t kill me Steve)? Easily import them into Noded and let us find the pertinent next steps and factoids you need today, and tomorrow. Today copy and paste. Tomorrow we will give you easy buttons to import.
Collaboration
Collaboration is as simple as sharing a note (or entire company or topic) with a team member / individual. 100% up to you and can provide read only or edit access. Simply click, decide who you want to share with and what level of access (read only, edit) you want to provide and share. Share a note (think of this as a thread). Share an entire topic. Just share a task. It is up to you!
Search
Search your notes (and anything shared with you) for instant access to the companies, people and topics in your life. Get a summary of a topic or ask for the 5 core issues customers have with the product.
Feedback
We are massive believers in community and our community is embedded into your Noded. Look over to the left hand nav and you will see a topic “Nodeys”. This is what we call ourselves and our community (feedback is welcome:) To start, simply click on the topic and type a note with your real time feedback. It is that simple. As we progress we will curate sub-topics here for collaboration and discussion.
