# Getting Started with Outtamind

Your very first steps on Outtamind

## Recording a New Task

Outtamind makes task creation seamless with its voice-controlled AI capabilities. Here’s how it works:

1. Speak your task aloud.
2. Once the transcript appears on the screen, click on **Add Tasks**.
3. Outtamind analyzes your transcript and automatically creates one or more tasks with:
   * A brief description.
   * Suggested due dates.
   * Relevant tags to help organize your tasks.

This feature helps you stay productive without manually inputting every detail.

## Recording a Note

Need to jot down a quick thought or reminder? Outtamind has you covered:

1. Speak your note aloud.
2. When the transcript is visible, click on **Add Note**.
3. Outtamind creates a single task, preserving your note for easy reference.

This is perfect for capturing ideas or thoughts that don’t require immediate action.

## Adding Tags

Tags are a powerful tool in Outtamind for organizing your tasks and notes. Here’s how to use them effectively:

### Predefined Tags

* When you create a new Outtamind account, we provide a set of demo tags to get you started.
* Each tag comes with contextual information, allowing our AI model to auto-assign tags to tasks and notes based on their content.

### Custom Tags

* Go to **Settings > Tags** to define your own tags.
* Add context to each tag to help the AI understand when to apply it.

### Examples of Tags

* **Projects**: Tags like “Personal”, “Work”, or “Hobby” help separate tasks by focus area.
* **Clients**: For example, use “Client A” or “Vendor X” to group tasks related to specific business relationships.
* **Task Groups**: Use tags like “Urgent” or “Follow-Up” to prioritize and differentiate tasks.

### What to Use Tags For?

Tags enable you to:

* Keep related tasks grouped for better organization.
* Quickly find tasks by filtering with tags.
* Enhance collaboration by categorizing tasks in shared projects.

Outtamind’s intelligent use of tags ensures that your tasks and notes remain clear, organized, and actionable.
