Notes are your personal knowledge base inside Sobes. You can save theory, cheat sheets, key concepts, and any materials that will help during an interview. During a Copilot session, the assistant automatically finds relevant notes and uses them as context for more accurate answers.
Creating a note
Go to Notes → Create note. There are two ways:
- Manually — enter a title and text in the editor
- File import — upload a
.txt,.md, or.markdownfile. The note title will be auto-populated from the filename
The editor supports formatting: headings, lists, bold/italic, code, and other Markdown elements.
Tags
You can add tags to each note — for example, react, system design, algorithms. Tags help:
- Quickly filter notes when searching
- Group materials by topic
How Copilot uses notes
This is the key feature of notes. When you run a session with Sobes Copilot:
- The assistant analyzes the current conversation context — the interviewer's questions and your transcription
- It automatically searches your notes for relevant fragments via vector search (RAG)
- Found fragments are injected as additional context for answer generation
This means the better structured your notes are, the more accurate and personalized Copilot's suggestions will be.
Write down key concepts for your stack: design patterns, framework specifics, typical questions and your answers to them. Copilot will rely on these materials during a real interview.
Notes are not tied to specific sessions — they are available globally. Copilot determines which fragments are relevant to the current question on its own.
Tips for note-taking
- One topic per note. Don't mix React and SQL in one note — this improves search accuracy
- Use headings and structure. Break material into sections — this makes fragments more meaningful
- Add tags. This helps both manual search and the automatic system
- Update before an interview. Add specifics about the company or position you're applying for
