How do I keep my notes organised so I can find them later?

  • Notes stay findable instead of piling up as one long scroll
  • Every loose card arrives with a suggested notebook and tag
  • You see whether the backlog is growing week on week

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it delete or move my notes?

No. Deleting a note or emptying the trash cannot be undone, so WebRun never touches either. It suggests a notebook and a tag per card and you make the change in Zoho Notebook.

How does it spot a near-duplicate?

It compares the content of cards created close together and flags pairs that repeat the same meeting, link, or list, then shows both on the tidy list so you decide which one to keep.

Does it read every note I have ever written?

No. Each run covers the cards added or edited since the last tidy, plus any card still on the previous list, so the weekly post stays short enough to actually clear.

Put this on autopilot.
