Welcome to the world of Tana, where organization meets innovation! If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the chaos of managing tasks, meetings, finances, or even your personal goals, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too. But since discovering Tana in April 2023, my life has transformed. And now, with Tana’s official launch on January 29th, 2025, you can experience this game-changing tool for yourself—no waitlist required!

In this post, I’ll walk you through how Tana can revolutionize your productivity, from managing your daily tasks to tracking your finances. Whether you’re a business owner, a freelancer, or just someone looking to streamline your life, Tana has something for you.

What is Tana?

Let’s start with the basics. What exactly is Tana?

Tana is an AI-powered productivity tool that adapts to your needs. Think of it as a digital Swiss Army knife for organizing your life and business. Whether you’re managing meetings, tracking finances, or brainstorming ideas, Tana provides a flexible platform to build systems that work for *you*.

What sets Tana apart is its ability to integrate AI into your workflow. It’s not just about creating to-do lists or storing information—it’s about making your data work for you. With features like super tags, commands, and meeting transcriptions, Tana allows you to customize your productivity system in ways that traditional tools simply can’t.

Getting Started with Tana

The best part? Getting started with Tana is a breeze.

With its official launch just around the corner, you’ll be able to sign up and dive in without any barriers. Once you’re in, the first step is to set up your workspace. Tana’s interface is intuitive, but the real magic happens when you start building your own systems. Tana's built in onboarding will guide you through the basics and if you want to dive deeper, you can join our Standard Plan and gain access to our standard training and other AI tools.

For example, I’ve created something called “TimeStaks” to organize my tasks by time horizons—like this week, next month, or even three months from now. It’s a simple yet powerful way to prioritize what needs to be done and when.

Daily Use of Tana

So, how do I use Tana on a daily basis? Let me give you a quick tour of my workflow.

Yesterday, for instance, I had an affiliate webinar. Tana automatically captured the meeting transcription and identified key action items, people, and companies mentioned during the call. It even flagged tasks for follow-up, like waiting for a link from Brage Bang at Tana Inc.

Here’s the cool part: Tana doesn’t just store this information—it connects it. The task from the webinar is linked to the project, the person responsible, and even the due date. When I look at my calendar for next week, that task is already there, ready to be tackled.

And it’s not just about work. I also use Tana to track personal goals, like my daily steps and exercise. Did I hit my 7,000 steps yesterday? Nope. But I did complete my red light therapy session, and Tana made it easy to check that off my list.

Building a System in Tana

Now, let’s talk about building your own system in Tana.

One of the things I love most about Tana is its flexibility. You’re not stuck with a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, you can create a system that fits your unique needs.

For example, I’ve built an “ImpactRank” system to prioritize tasks based on their importance. This is a lifesaver for someone like me, who’s neurodivergent and thrives on structure. The ImpactRank is calculated using a combination of factors, like the task’s priority, the project it’s linked to, and even the goal it supports.

It’s like having a personal assistant who knows exactly what’s most important at any given moment.

Advanced Features and Customization

If you’re a power user like me, you’ll love Tana’s advanced features.

Take super tags, for instance. These are like labels on steroids. I use them to categorize everything from affiliate programs to recipes. Yes, recipes! Because why not keep track of your favorite meals in the same place you manage your business?

Another feature I adore is Tana’s AI integration. For example, I track my daily trading performance in Tana. At the end of the day, I can ask the AI to calculate my profit and loss (PNL) and even show me the percentage growth (or loss). It’s like having a financial analyst at your fingertips.

And the best part? You don’t need to be a tech wizard to set this up. Tana’s interface is user-friendly, and there are plenty of resources to help you get started.

Practical Examples and Use Cases

Still wondering how Tana can fit into your life? Let me share a few practical examples. Just watch the video above.
