Capture
Master the rich text editor, markdown shortcuts, slash commands, todo chips, math, images, AI editing, and more.
The editor
CoachKeeper’s editor is built for thinking, not formatting. It uses TipTap under the hood, which means you get the speed of markdown with the power of a rich text editor. Start typing and it stays out of your way. When you need structure, it’s all there.
Markdown shortcuts
The editor converts markdown syntax as you type, no mode switching needed:
| Type this | Get this |
|---|---|
# Heading | Heading 1 |
## Heading | Heading 2 |
### Heading | Heading 3 |
#### Heading | Heading 4 |
**bold** | bold text |
*italic* | italic text |
- item | Bullet list |
1. item | Numbered list |
[] | Inline todo chip |
`code` | Inline code |
--- | Horizontal rule |
> quote | Blockquote |
``` | Code block |
Slash commands
Type / anywhere in the editor to open the command menu:
- /image, upload or paste an image
- /code, insert a code block with syntax highlighting (dozens of languages supported)
- /math, LaTeX math block, rendered with KaTeX
- /table, insert an editable table with header row
- /todo, insert a task list
- /divider, horizontal rule
Math support
CoachKeeper supports LaTeX math for students, researchers, and anyone working with formulas:
- Inline math, wrap with
$, like$x^2 + y^2 = z^2$ - Block math, wrap with
$$or use the/mathslash command for a dedicated math block
Rendered beautifully with KaTeX, right in your notes.
Code blocks
Insert a code block with ``` or the /code slash command. The editor provides syntax highlighting for dozens of languages, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, Rust, SQL, and many more.
Tables
Insert tables with the /table command. Tables are scrollable when they exceed the editor width, and include a header row for structure. Edit cells directly by clicking into them.
Images
You can add images three ways:
- Paste, copy an image and paste directly into the editor
- Drag and drop, drag image files from your desktop
- Slash command, type
/imageand select a file
Once inserted, drag the corners of any image to resize it to the size you need. Images are uploaded to your server and stored securely.
Link previews
Paste a URL into the editor and it renders as a rich preview card with the page’s title, description, and image, pulled from Open Graph metadata. A quick way to save references without breaking your flow.
Inline todo chips
Type [] to insert a todo chip, an inline reference to a task, embedded right in your text. Click the chip to jump to the linked todo. This is how notes and tasks stay connected without leaving the editor.
When you’re ready, promote a chip to your full task list with one click. The original note stays linked as context.
Note-to-Action extraction
Select any text in a note and click the sparkle button in the floating menu. The AI analyzes your selection and extracts actionable items, creating structured todos with titles, checklists, and time estimates.
You can create them as separate tasks or as subtasks of a single todo. This is one of the fastest ways to go from raw meeting notes or brainstorms to organized work.
Bubble menu
Select any text to reveal the floating bubble menu:
- Bold, italic, strikethrough, code, link, highlight
- Convert to Todo, turns your selection into a structured task
- AI Edit, give an instruction and the AI rewrites your selection with a preview diff
AI editing
Select text, click the AI button, and describe what you want:
- “Make this more concise”
- “Translate to a formal tone”
- “Summarize in three bullet points”
The AI shows a preview with the changes highlighted. Accept to apply, or discard to keep the original. You can also ask the AI in the chat sidebar to summarize or rewrite an entire note.
Auto-save
Your work saves automatically every few seconds. A subtle indicator shows when changes are saved. No save button, no lost work.
Export
Download any note in three formats from the export menu:
- PDF, formatted for printing or sharing
- Markdown, plain text with formatting preserved
- HTML, web-ready format
Tips
- Write first, organize later. The editor is for thinking. Use Quick Capture or the Organize tab when you’re ready to structure things.
- Use
[]liberally. Inline todo chips let you capture action items without breaking your writing flow. Process them later. - Try the sparkle button. After a meeting or brainstorm, select your notes and let the AI extract the tasks for you.
