Foli AI and AI credits

Foli AI answers questions from the notes you can open, helps you write, and writes a short brief of your week. It runs on Google Gemini. It’s part of every plan except Core.

Where to find it

• Ask Foli AI: press ⌘J anywhere outside a note, or pick Ask Foli AI about your notes in the ⌘K palette. Ask a question and get an answer with links to the notes it used, then ask follow-ups. From a folder’s menu, Ask Foli AI about this folder keeps the answers inside that folder.
• Editing a selection: select text and press ⌘J, or use the AI button in the selection toolbar or Ask Foli AI… in a block’s handle menu. Improve it, fix spelling and grammar, make it shorter or longer, simplify it, make it sound professional or casual, translate it into one of 15 languages, explain it or summarize it. Or type your own instruction. Then Replace, Insert below, Try again, or tweak the result with Shorter, Longer, Simpler, More formal or More casual.
• Writing: on an empty line, type / and pick an AI item, or press ⌘J, to continue writing, summarize the note, make an outline, brainstorm ideas or find the action items (written as to-dos, so they appear in Tasks). On action items or a meeting summary, Add dates and people inserts the result and lets you check each to-do’s due date and who it’s for before they’re set. The AI panel in a note’s dock has the same tools, plus questions about the note.
• Titles: select words in a title for Edit with AI, or let it suggest a title from the note. Untitled notes with some text offer Suggest a title.
• Catch me up: on Home, a short brief of your week: recent notes and what’s due.
• Flowcharts: describe a process and the AI draws it, or changes a chart you have. Undo the whole change with ⌘Z.

Answers and rewrites appear word by word, and you can press Stop at any time.

Flashcards and reviews

Foli AI can make flashcards or a quiz from a note (Study in the note’s AI panel, or the / menu). A flashcard is a toggle: the question is the toggle’s line and the answer is what’s inside it. You can make your own too: open a toggle’s block menu and pick Use as flashcard.

• Reviews brings your cards back when they’re due, from every note you can open, using spaced repetition (FSRS). Press Space to see the answer, then Again, Hard, Good or Easy (or 1 to 4). Each button shows when the card will come back.
• Up to 20 new cards a day join your reviews. To change that, pick another number (none, 10, 30, 50 or 100) from New cards a day at the top of Reviews; it’s saved to your account. A note’s own review always offers all its new cards. Each person who can open a note has their own schedule for its cards.
• Reviews appears in the sidebar once you have cards, Home shows Today’s reviews, and a note’s … menu can review just that note’s cards.
• Cards in Trash, or in notes you can no longer open, drop out of your reviews. Reviewing doesn’t use AI credits.

AI credits

AI use is counted in credits. A credit is one cent of what the AI costs to run, and each request is charged for what it actually uses: a short rewrite is usually 1 credit, and a question to Foli AI or a new flowchart usually 3 to 5. Before a request starts, Folevi sets a few credits aside so it can finish, and gives back what it didn’t use.

• Free: AI during the 7-day trial (100 credits), then none.
• Core: no AI.
• Pro: 180 credits a month.
• Pro AI: unlimited AI with fair use, which is 550 credits a month.
• The 7-day trial for new accounts: 100 credits.

On Pro and Pro AI you can buy a credit pack (500 credits for $7.99 or 1,000 for $14.99). Packs last 12 months and are used after your monthly credits. In a paid workspace, each member has the plan’s credits there; in a free workspace, and as a guest, you use your own personal credits. See Pricing.

Turning it off

Turn Foli AI off in Settings at any time. While it’s off, none of your notes are sent to it. On Core, the server refuses every AI request and the app hides AI. See AI notes and the Privacy page.
