Impress AI

What is Impression AI?

Impress AI is a generative AI capability provided by Beijing Impression Notes Technology Co., Ltd. for Impression Notes and its product portfolio.

It focuses primarily on notes, documents, and personal knowledge, and is not an independent general-purpose chat website.

Core functions

AI helps me write.

In the desktop version of Super Notes, users can activate this feature using “AI Help Me Write”, the Impression AI icon, or slash commands.

• Hold a brainstorming session to quickly list topics, directions, and alternatives.
• Generate drafts such as article outlines, meeting agendas, stories, or modern poems.
• Continue writing based on the context, adding paragraphs or expanding on the ideas.
• After selecting the text, it can be summarized, optimized, rewritten, or translated.
• The generated content can be directly inserted into notes for further manual editing and organization.
• Facts, quotes, figures, and professional judgments still need to be verified manually.

AI assistant and note Q&A

Through the top bar on mobile devices, one can access the AI assistant to engage in conversations related to notes, files, and open questions.

• After adding a note, the AI will analyze its content and suggest questions that might be of interest.
• The answers can be saved as new notes to facilitate further organization and linking.
• Searching for notes allows one to find information from past records using natural language.
• Open-ended questions can yield reference answers, but they are not necessarily based on personal notes.
• Before each conversation, the currently selected range of materials should be confirmed.
• Notes that are not included in the analysis will not constitute a reliable basis.

File analysis

Impress AI can select files from a material library, extract key information, and then pose further questions based on that document.

• Suitable for reading reports, proposals, papers, and conference materials.
• AI will first summarize the content and suggest three questions that might be of interest.
• Further questions can be asked regarding conclusions, differences, action items, and key data.
• Scans, complex tables, formulas, and low-quality images may affect recognition.
• The previous official documentation specified limits of 50MB, 50 pages, and 100,000 characters.
• The current actual file limit should be based on the real-time indication provided on the application’s upload page.

Web clipping analysis

The AI assistant can accept web links, enabling bookmarking, note creation, summarization, and retrieval of similar notes.

1. Select a link in the AI assistant, or send the URL of the webpage that needs to be analyzed to the assistant.
2. Wait for the system to save the web page content and create the corresponding notes.
3. View the summary to confirm the title, author, date, and main points.
4. Use the recommended questions or inquire specifically about the contents on the page.
5. Check whether the similar notes identified by the system are indeed relevant.
6. Save the valid responses as separate notes and add tags.
7. Important information should still retain the original text and the date of access.

My notes on the conversation

Super members can select one or more notebooks; after preliminary analysis, questions and answers are generated based on those notes.

• You can select all notebooks, or only those notes that are related to a specific project.
• The number of notes and the length of their content affect the pre-analysis time.
• Encrypted notebooks will not appear in the list of options.
• AI can provide comprehensive answers, summarize notes, and identify common patterns.
• Separate notebooks should be created for different projects to reduce interference between data.
• The answer should be checked against the original notes to avoid misinterpreting the context.

Mind map feature

On the desktop version, Impression AI can be used to create mind maps, as well as to expand selected nodes.

• After creating a new mind map note, open the assistant using the Impression AI icon.
• Enter the topic, target audience, hierarchy, and the content you wish to cover.
• Apply the generated results to the mind map, then adjust the node relationships.
• Selecting a single node allows you to further expand its subtopics.
• For complex projects, the number of levels should be limited to prevent the diagram from becoming too crowded and difficult to read.
• The classification relationships generated by AI need to be reviewed by the user.

Impress AI Usage Guide

1. Install the latest version of Imnote and log in with the account you intend to use.
2. Choose between the desktop AI assistant for writing tasks or the mobile AI assistant, depending on your needs.
3. Create notes, or add notes, files, and web pages that need to be analyzed.
4. Specify the task, output format, length, tone, and scope of the information.
5. Check whether the AI is referencing the correct notes and the complete context.
6. Further questions were raised regarding the answers, requesting that the basis, differences, and actions to be taken be listed.
7. Save the valid responses as notes, and add titles, tags, and link relationships.
8. Return to the original sources to verify facts, figures, quotations, and dates.
9. Remove sensitive information before sharing, and verify collaboration and access permissions.

How to choose among different platforms

The pace of updates to the interfaces and functions at various ends may vary; if the AI interface cannot be found, the client should be upgraded first.

Models and working methods

Officials state that Impression AI is driven by its own lightweight large language model, “Elephant GPT”, as well as by models from both domestic and international sources.

• Personal notes and documents provide specific context for answering questions.
• The model may use general knowledge to answer open-ended questions.
• Specifying a data range does not guarantee that every conclusion is accurately cited.
• The models and underlying supply combinations may change as the product is upgraded.
• Impress AI is an application service; it cannot be equated with the GPT model itself.
• The fact that a product offers AI capabilities does not mean that the model weights can be downloaded.

Free account and member prices

As of August 30, 2026, the member section on the official website lists the price of a regular Imnote account.

The storage benefits available to regular members do not include all AI functions; the number of AI uses and the price associated with premium membership must be checked on the account page.

Prices, promotions, automatic renewals, and benefits may change; the final details are subject to the settlement page, the order, and the current agreement.

Pre-payment checklist

• Confirm whether the purchase is for a standard, premium, professional, or elite membership.
• Check whether the number of AI checks, file analysis, and multi-note Q&A are included.
• Check the monthly upload volume, the size of each note, and the number of devices synced.
• Confirm whether the price is paid annually and what the amount of automatic renewal is.
• Check whether the benefits on Windows, Mac, and mobile devices are consistent.
• First, use the free capability test to assess the quality of responses related to actual notes and documents.

Data and Privacy Considerations

According to the official AI user agreement, the content and commands entered while using the service are used for data collection and training of their own models.

• The agreement states that the entered content will not be disclosed to third parties, except as required by law.
• The agreement states that it will not be used for training third-party models, unless the user grants explicit permission.
• Passwords, keys, identification documents, and sensitive customer information should still be removed before uploading.
• For corporate secrets and information subject to confidentiality agreements, the organization’s policies must be consulted first.
• Before sharing AI-generated notes, it is necessary to recheck the access scope.
• The privacy and training terms may be updated; it is important to read the current agreement before using the service.

API, SDK, and open-source status

• API: As of the time of verification, no public developer API documentation for Impression AI was found.
