Slash Command
A slash command is a /-triggered menu inside Notes that inserts a block, runs an action, or opens an inline AI prompt — e.g. /heading, /todo, /clip, /ai.
In depth
Type / anywhere in a note and a contextual menu appears with every block type, plus platform shortcuts: /clip to web-clip the current selection, /ai to summon inline AI, /task to insert a structured task, and more.
Slash commands keep the editor keyboard-first and discoverable without cluttering the toolbar.
Examples
- /heading 1
- /ai rewrite
- /clip from URL

BlockNote Block
A BlockNote block is the atomic unit of a note — a paragraph, heading, list item, image, table, code block, callout, web clip, or task — each with its own ID, formatting, and slash-command shortcuts.
Notes Inline AI
Notes Inline AI is the in-editor AI that lives on the toolbar and behind /ai — rewrite, continue, fix grammar, simplify, lengthen, or shorten any selection without leaving the document.
Web Clipper
The Web Clipper is the OpenCharts Chrome extension that saves web pages, selections, highlights, screenshots, and images into Notes — with AI summarization, action extraction, and templated formatting.
