Review Roam Research?

Roam Research is highly praised for its ability to revolutionize note-taking with features like bi-directional links and daily notes, making it ideal for creative thinkers. Users appreciate its flexibility and the supportive community, though some note a steep learning curve and desire improvements in mobile experience and UI design. Despite these critiques, many find it indispensable for organizing thoughts and ideas, often returning to it after trying other tools. The cost is seen as justified by those who value its unique capabilities.

Graph based databases are the best structure if you want to use AI tools to automatically categorize and sort your screenshots and other files into a note taking app.

Perfect blend of daily activities log, reading notes, meeting notes, and summaries. I have used Roam Research for four years and loved it.

tried most of the other PKMs out there...always find my way back to Roam. Still the best. Hoping for a better mobil experience and polished/modern UI.
