Frequently Asked Questions
Is CHELA a complete replacement for Notion?
For some, yes. If your primary goal is capturing ideas, journaling, and quick task management, CHELA is faster. However, if you are building complex relational databases and kanban boards, Notion is better suited. They work brilliantly together.
Can I send CHELA notes to Notion?
Yes. CHELA generates clean markdown that pastes perfectly into Notion, preserving headers, bullet points, and code blocks instantly.
How does CHELA's semantic search compare to Notion's search?
Notion AI search is powerful for finding text within your workspaces. CHELA's search is specifically optimized for audio embeddings, allowing you to ask conceptual questions about your past voice dictations.
Is CHELA easier to use on mobile?
Vastly. Notion is notoriously clunky on mobile devices. CHELA is designed mobile-first, prioritizing massive tap targets and voice ingestion for on-the-go capture.
