AFFiNE AI

AFFiNE AI adds writing and visual assistance to AFFiNE documents and whiteboards. In document Page Mode, users can select text or blocks and choose Ask AI, or open the sidebar chat. In Edgeless Mode, the assistant can be invoked from selected whiteboard elements. The product page describes drafting and rewriting text, adjusting tone, correcting spelling and grammar, summarizing content, and turning outlines into mind maps. Presentation generation is labeled as a beta feature. Other described workflows include turning PDF reading material or video transcripts into notes and assembling research briefs from existing information. Although AFFiNE presents the wider workspace as local-first, its AI FAQ says AFFiNE AI currently runs through AFFiNE Cloud and requires signing in. It also describes support for a user's own API key. That distinction matters when evaluating an offline workflow or deciding which content to send to AI services. The AI add-on is priced separately from workspace plans, and a limited trial is available for Cloud users.
