SiYuan is a personal knowledge management application for Windows that helps users organize, edit, and connect notes and other information. It uses a block-based editing system with features such as outlines, block references, and two-way links for building structured knowledge bases.
SiYuan provides a variety of built-in content elements and formatting tools for creating and organizing documents. Its block-based structure makes it possible to reference and connect related information across different notes.
The application also includes data synchronization and privacy-focused storage options, allowing users to manage their knowledge base across supported devices. Additional features include spaced repetition for reviewing stored information, as well as tools for screenshots and browser-related functions.
SiYuan can also integrate with AI services such as OpenAI for tasks including writing and translation. Its combination of structured notes, linked information, and knowledge management features makes it suitable for organizing personal notes, research, and other reference material.
