Creating Landmarks on Notebook.ai

From the smallest statue to the biggest mountain, landmarks can play important roles, too.

Creating landmarks on Notebook.ai is easy.

To get started, just click Landmarks under the "Worldbuilding" header in the site sidebar. You'll be able to see or edit all of your existing landmark pages and create new ones at any time. You can also customize your Landmark template for all of your pages here.

Search your landmarks

If you've got a lot of landmarks, you can quickly get around to the right one with Notebook.ai's full-text search. It searches your entire notebook for anything you wrote about that landmark.

You can also filter your landmarks by tag, whether you've favorited that page, and which universe it's in.

Private by default

Your ideas are valuable. Every landmark you create in Notebook.ai is owned by you, completely private by default, and only accessible to you.

But of course, you also have full control over that privacy and can share any landmark page you want, however you want, whenever you want.

Landmarks are a Premium page

Landmark notebook pages require an active Premium subscription to create, but users on free plans can view and edit their existing landmark pages at any time.

Notebook.ai is your personal worldbuilding notebook; any page you create is yours forever and you'll never lose access to any part of it for any reason — even if you downgrade to a free account in the future.

location_on Get a head start with a detailed, customizable landmark template

You can fill out as little or as much as you'd like on every new landmark. You'll see progress indicators every time you edit it to show where you can make progress on and our system will intelligently generate questions for you around the site that will automatically save your answers to the proper place on your landmark page.

Templates are also fully customizable across every landmark in your notebook.

You can browse the default template for landmarks here; just click a category to see the questions it starts with.
