Writing Your Note

There's no special formatting required. Just write like you normally would—meeting notes, ideas, research findings, decisions, whatever you need to capture.

Tips for Better Results

  • Write naturally—no special formatting required
  • Longer notes give the AI more context for better connections

  • The AI handles structure automatically

What Gets Extracted

Lexic's AI automatically identifies and extracts 8 types of entities from your notes:

👤

Person

People mentioned by name—colleagues, clients, stakeholders

🏢

Organization

Companies, institutions, teams, and groups

📍

Location

Places, addresses, cities, and regions

📅

Date

Temporal references—deadlines, milestones, schedules

💰

Money

Financial amounts—budgets, costs, pricing

📅

Event

Meetings, conferences, launches, and occurrences

💡

Concept

Abstract ideas, themes, and mental models

🛠️

Technology

Tools, frameworks, systems, and platforms

How it works: When you save a note, the AI scans your content, identifies these entity types, and adds them to your knowledge graph. This enables powerful search and automatic connections between related notes.

🎯

Personalization

Entity extraction adapts to your profile—your role, industry, and experience level influence what the AI prioritizes.

Role-Specific Priorities

Product Managers

Features, roadmap items, user segments

Engineers

Technologies, systems, technical decisions

Researchers

Findings, methodologies, participants

Designers

Components, patterns, user flows

Confidence Scoring

Not every extraction is certain. Lexic uses confidence scoring to filter out low-quality extractions, ensuring your knowledge graph stays clean and useful.

📄

Automatic Content Type Detection

The AI classifies your note into semantic types, enabling smart filtering and organization:

TypeWhat It Captures
NoteGeneral notes (default)
DecisionConclusions, resolutions, agreed-upon choices
MeetingAttendees, agenda, discussion points, action items
TaskTodos, deadlines, assignments, priority items
ReferenceDocumentation, specifications, guides

Auto-Assignment

Content types are auto-assigned when confidence ≥70%. If the AI isn't confident, it defaults to "Note".

Smart Filtering

Filter by content type to quickly find all decisions, meetings, or tasks across your lexicon.

📈

Cost Transparency

If cost preview is enabled, you'll see exactly how many words an operation will process before saving.
