Capturing Ideas with Text
Text capture is the most common and flexible way to add ideas to Plurigen.ai. Whether you're typing from scratch, pasting from notes, or drafting in a text editor first, this guide covers everything you need to know.
When to Use Text Capture
Text capture works best when:
You have time to type and refine your thoughts
You're working from existing notes or documents
You want to structure your idea with formatting
You need to include code snippets or technical details
You prefer writing to speaking
Tip: For quick, on-the-go capture, try voice capture instead.
