Understanding Character Limits & Notebook Memory

Each note in your Notebook has a character limit. We call this limit "Notebook Memory." The amount of Notebook Memory per note depends on your subscription plan:

• Free Plan: 5,000 characters per note

• Basic Plan: 25,000 characters per note

• Standard Plan: 50,000 characters per note

• Premium Plan: 100,000 characters per note

Why are there character limits?

Notebook Memory limits help ensure optimal performance for all users and allow us to offer different plans to suit different needs and budgets. There's a direct relationship between the amount of text the AI can process within a single note and the computational resources required.

What are the benefits of having more Notebook Memory (higher character limits)?

While breaking down information into smaller, connected notes is generally recommended, there are times when having more Notebook Memory per note can be beneficial:

• More Detail: You can include more comprehensive descriptions, explanations, and context within a single note. This is especially useful for complex topics or elements.

• Richer Context for the AI: A larger entry gives the AI more information to work with within that specific context, potentially leading to more nuanced and insightful responses. This can be particularly helpful for detailed scene descriptions, character analyses, or worldbuilding notes.

• Fewer Entries (Sometimes): For certain types of information, you might be able to create fewer notes overall, simplifying your organization.

• Longer-Form Content: If you prefer to write longer, more detailed notes, a higher character limit gives you more flexibility.

Consider upgrading your plan if you find yourself frequently needing to break down information that would ideally be kept together, or if you want the AI to have access to more extensive context within a single entry.

What counts towards the character limit?

The character limit applies to the text content of each note. The title and tag and any connections to other entries do not count towards the limit.

What happens if I go over my plan's character limit?

If a note exceeds your plan's Notebook Memory limit (the character limit per note), you'll see a warning message indicating which note is over the limit. The AI assistant will not be able to generate responses until the issue is resolved.

To fix this:

1. Identify the Over-Limit Entry: The warning message will clearly identify the entry with too much text.

2. Reduce the Text: Edit the entry and shorten the text content to be within your plan's limit. You can do this by:

   • Summarizing: Condense the information, focusing on the most essential points.

   • Breaking it Down: Divide the information into multiple, connected entries. This is generally a good practice for better organization and AI performance.
