Spaces and notes
Notes and files for each client, with every change kept
A Space holds the notes and files of one client or project, and you get a personal one for yourself. Svanja keeps every change, and under the hood each Space is a private Git repository.
What is in a Space?
You keep notes and files in folders, like in a notes app. Notes are Markdown with links between them. PDFs and spreadsheets open right in the browser.
A Space can also hold skills and document templates. The assistant uses them when it works for that client.
- Space instructions tell the assistant how to work there
- Link a Space to a company in your contacts
- Choose the members of each Space on the Team plan
What happens when I change something?
Svanja saves while you type. Each change goes into the history with the name of the person or the task that made it, and you can go back to any version.
If you and a colleague edit the same note, both changes stay when they touch different paragraphs. If you both change the same line, Svanja shows both versions and you decide.
- Deleted notes go to Trash first
- Undo one change and keep the edits made after it
- Save a version with a name when you want one
Can I bring my notes from Obsidian?
Yes. Drag your vault folder in, or connect the Git repository it lives in. Links and folders come along.
You can also import a folder from Dropbox or Google Drive. Before anything comes in, a preview shows what will be imported and what stays out.
- Scripts in your repository show up as tools
- Folders with a SKILL.md become skills
- Files that look like secrets stay out
Can I use my own editor?
Yes. Copy the clone address from the Space settings and clone it with Git. Then work on it in your own editor, like Obsidian or Claude Code, and push your changes back.
You can also mirror a Space to GitHub, or export it as a whole.
- Access tokens only reach the Spaces you can read
- Export your whole account at any time
Questions about Spaces
How much storage do I get?
Free has 1 GB and Pro 50 GB. Team has 100 GB plus 25 GB for each member. On Pro and Team you can add 100 GB for 5 euros a month.
What happens to my Spaces if I stop paying?
Nothing is deleted. Your account goes back to Free, and you can still read and export everything.
How long do deleted notes stay in Trash?
It depends on the plan, from 30 days on Free to 90 days on Team. Until then you can restore them.
