Describe a folder, get a structure.
Start with a plain-language prompt and Fold drafts the fields that belong to the notes you are about to keep.
The note adapts to the subject.
Each folder carries its own reusable structure. The result is less setup every time you capture something, and fewer half-remembered details later.
Save the grammar you reuse.
Turn a working schema into a preset so recurring folders can begin with the same useful structure.
Change fields after the folder exists.
Add, reorder, and rename typed fields while old notes keep the writing and details that matter.
Improve the note without leaving it.
Enhance actions sit beside the writing surface, ready to tighten, summarize, or reshape text in context.
The details stay close to the writing.
These are real product flows: create a folder shape, search through context, and keep writing after the fields end.
Folder grammar
Shape a folder.
Edit fields and templates while the folder remains the center of the work.
Context search
Return by context.
Pull the right note back from a title, a folder, a field value, or the writing itself.
Free writing
Write past the schema.
Typed fields stay visible, but the note still has room to breathe underneath.Common notes become reusable systems.
Start from a subject you already track. Fold turns repeated details into fields while leaving the note itself flexible.
Book schema
Reading
Authors, ratings, source links, and margin notes.

Lists
Open lists with context.
Tabs, filters, search, and recent notes stay inside the folder, keeping the route obvious.
Note
Structure holds edges.
The typed parts keep the note organized above a free writing surface that can stay messy, useful, and alive.
Search
Return by context.
Search reads folders, field values, titles, and free text, then brings the right surface back into view.The supporting tools stay nearby.
Enhance, checklists, macros, settings, reminders, and history stay close to the note instead of becoming separate workflows.
Checklist
Checklist mode stays native.
Tasks keep their own progress and counts while the note still carries the schema fields around them.
Field macro
Field controls feel made for the type.
A rating field opens as stars, not a generic text input, so structured details stay quick to adjust.
Macros
Useful actions wait near the cursor.
Date, rating, link, and tag macros appear only when you need them, keeping the writing surface calm.
AI settings
AI stays configurable.
Provider, model, local processing, and portability settings live in one clear place.
Reminder
Follow-ups stay attached.
Dates and times connect back to the note that created them, so reminders retain the surrounding context.
History
History makes edits reversible.
Changes remain inspectable so a structured note can evolve without losing trust in its previous state.
