FAQ

Questions

What it does

Hjarni is an AI-native note-taking app. Write notes in Markdown, organize them in folders with custom AI instructions per folder, and let Claude or ChatGPT search, read, create, and organize your notes via MCP.

Your notes serve two readers: you and your AI. Hjarni stores the knowledge. ChatGPT and Claude are the interfaces.

Connect

Hjarni is a hosted remote MCP server with OAuth authentication. No API keys, no Docker, no local setup. Setup takes under 2 minutes.

Claude.ai / Claude Desktop / Claude mobile

Connectors are available on all Claude plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise, a workspace owner adds the connector first.
