A little help, whenever you need it.
Start in the template library. Open a template detail page to preview it or download a blank PDF. Choose Customize to open a new project in the studio.
In the editor, use Content for notes and dates, and Design for the page title, fonts, colors, paper size and decorations. Add a page to combine layouts. Use the arrow buttons to reorder pages, Duplicate to copy a layout, and Undo or Redo to revise changes while the editor is open. Habit tracker boxes can be checked directly in the preview.
Download PDF exports every page. Download PNG exports the selected page. Choose Editable backup to preserve the project as JSON, then use Restore backup in My Planners to move it to another browser. For printing, use matching A4 or US Letter paper and actual size. If notes do not fit, the editor displays a warning: shorten them or add another page. If local saving fails, download a backup before leaving. No account or cloud syncing is currently provided.

How AI planning works ↗Plan with AI, step by step
Use ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or Copilot in a separate tab to draft your plan. PaperNest prepares a prompt, then lets you preview and apply a pasted JSON response. No AI runs inside PaperNest and answers do not return automatically.
How does Plan with AI work?
Open Plan with AI in the editor, describe your tasks and preferences, review the prepared prompt, then choose ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or Copilot. The prompt is copied and the chosen service opens in a separate tab. Paste it there, then bring the JSON answer back to PaperNest to preview and apply.
Is ChatGPT or another AI built into PaperNest?
No. These are external-service launch buttons and a local prompt builder. PaperNest does not call an AI API, run a built-in chatbot, or receive answers automatically. The services are provided by their respective companies.
Do I need an API key or a paid subscription?
PaperNest requires no API key or payment for this workflow. Each external service has its own sign-in requirements, available plans and usage limits. PaperNest does not provide or guarantee unlimited free access to those services.
Are my planner notes shared automatically?
No. Existing notes and planning dates are excluded by default. You can choose to include them in the prompt and review the full text before copying it. Only what you paste into an external service is sent to that service, under its own terms and privacy policy.
How do I bring an AI plan back into my planner?
Ask the assistant to follow the JSON format in the prepared prompt. Copy its answer into Paste the AI response, select Preview draft, and review the matching fields. Apply reviewed draft replaces only the displayed fields and any displayed page title. You can edit or undo the change.
What if the assistant returns a different format or makes a mistake?
PaperNest checks the response structure before allowing import. If it is not valid JSON, ask the assistant to follow the original prompt format. Review all dates, commitments and numbers yourself. Notes that do not fit a page produce a preview warning; shorten them or add another page.
