Meet the TicNote API Skill: Stop Digging Through Your Notes. Start Asking.

Somewhere in your TicNote library is the answer to a question you had two weeks ago. The recording exists. The transcript exists. The AI summary exists. And still, when you need the one decision from the one meeting, you find yourself scrolling folders, guessing file names, and mentally replaying audio you barely remember.

Sound familiar? Then this one's for you.

The TicNote API Skill gives your AI assistant direct access to your entire TicNote library. Upload files. Transcribe audio. Run deep research. Organize projects. All with a single message to your assistant — no copying, no pasting, no digging through folders.

 

Your Notes Are a Vault without a Teller

Here's the uncomfortable truth about modern note-taking: we solved capture, but not retrieval.

A voice recorder captures everything. AI transcription makes audio searchable. Summaries distill the noise down to what matters. And yet, most of that value sits inert in folders, waiting for someone to come and find it. Your library is a vault — but there's no teller behind the window.

The missing piece isn't more organization. It's a way to ask. That's exactly what the API Skill adds.


What the TicNote API Skill Actually Is

An API Skill is a small package your AI assistant installs once. It teaches the assistant how to talk to TicNote — securely, with your permission, under your control.

Install it, connect it with your API Key, and your assistant can operate TicNote directly. Not by pretending, not by guessing — by actually finding your recordings, reading your transcripts, and working with real content.

In plain English, that means six things:

Find. Search projects and files across your whole library, in natural language.

Transcribe. Turn any audio or video into text you can actually use.

Summarize. Pull out decisions, action items, and open questions into clean notes.

Translate. Move between languages effortlessly — English meetings into Chinese summaries, and back again.

Research. Compare evidence across dozens of files at once and see what you've been missing.

Organize. Keep the library tidy — spot gaps, finish summaries, group everything by project.


Setup Takes Two Minutes

Here's the part people don't believe: no API knowledge required. No code. No commands. If you can copy and paste, you can install this.

Please install the TicNote API skill
Skill URL: https://voice-recorder-cdn.ticnote.com/ticnote-web-prd/2026-03/ticnote-api.zip
API Key URL: https://ticnote.com. Get your API Key from 'TicNote Key' in your profile menu.

Send that to your AI assistant — Codex, Claude, or any assistant that supports skills. Your assistant downloads, installs, and verifies it automatically.

Then go to TicNote Web, open your profile menu, and copy your API Key from TicNote Key. Paste it back into the conversation. That's it. Connected, authenticated, ready.

⚠️ Keep your key safe. Your API Key is the password to your library. Don't share it in chats, repos, or screenshots — and rotate it from your profile settings if you ever think it's been exposed.


Why This Changes the Game

Meeting notes, on autopilot

Upload a recording, get a structured brief — decisions, owners, action items. Then go further: "What did we actually agree about the launch date?" Your assistant finds the right recording, reads the transcript, and answers with the source. No more "I think we said…" moments.

Your knowledge base, self-maintaining

The Skill isn't just for answering questions. Your assistant can also run on a schedule — every day at 6 PM, find today's recordings and write a brief of decisions, action items, important ideas, and open questions. Your library keeps itself current, hands-free.

Multilingual by default

English recording, Chinese summary. Chinese meeting, English recap. Cross-language work stops being a chore and becomes a setting.

Deep research without the legwork

Drop PDFs and documents into TicNote, kick off a Deep Research session, and get back core arguments, pain points, and key insights — pulled from your own material, not a generic web search.


A Few Ground Rules Worth Stealing

Start read-only. Add "Do not modify any TicNote content" to your early prompts. Your assistant will confirm before changing anything, and you stay in control.

Be specific. "Summarize my meetings" is okay. "Find all product meetings this week and list decisions, open questions, and owners" is dramatically better. Output quality scales with input detail.

Stop Digging. Start Asking.

Your recordings already contain the answers. The API Skill just makes sure you can actually reach them — from the assistant you already talk to every day.
