Collections let you group related notes together—similar to tags, but with more structure. A note can live in multiple collections at once.
How to add a note to a collection
- Click Organize in an open note and type a collection name. Select an existing collection or create a new one.
- Or type
# followed by the collection name while editing. Pick from suggestions or create a new collection.
Auto‑Organize
- Click Organize and choose Auto‑organize from the menu.
- Mem will try to add the note to an existing collection, or create a new one if it doesn’t find a good fit.
- You can also multi‑select notes and choose Auto‑organize to file many notes at once. See: /features/bulk-actions
Shared Collections
Collaborate with your team by sharing a Collection. Everyone you share with sees the same set of notes and updates in real time.
How to create a Shared Collection:
- Open an existing Collection (or create a new one).
- Click the Share icon at the top right of the Collection page.
- Add teammates by name or email. If someone doesn’t have a Mem account yet, they’ll receive an invite and can register to join.
- When you add a note to this Shared Collection, that note is shared with all members automatically.
Why use Shared Collections:
- Keep project docs, meeting notes, and decisions in one place.
- Share many notes at once by adding them to the Collection.
- A note can live in multiple Collections, so it can belong to several shared spaces at the same time.
Why collections matter
- Use collections for filtering and search
- Guide Chat by attaching one or more collections to your prompt
- Notes in the same collection are surfaced together in Heads Up while you work
