serious question: when do you ever have your own notes and can't find the answer ?

i would call it bad note taking to not be able to recall an answer you put into your notes.

I like the idea of something like this but i've struggled to find a real use case.

Oh I definitely have cases where I'm quite sure that I have had something in my notes and it takes quite an effort to find them.

It is probably relevant to note that I have more than a decade of notes, and more than half of them are not written by me but are excerpts from various relevant resources, scientific papers, etc; so there are cases where, for example, I know that many years ago I had seen an interesting application of method X and should have in my notes, but I don't necessarily remember the exact keywords how it was discussed back then.

You underestimate the number of bad notetakers.

I’m one of them.

This tool might actually make me take better notes.

Maybe.
