Keep the structure. Lose the overhead.

Tana is built for turning notes into structured objects. TreeNote is built for moving real work forward in a clear hierarchy. When the schema is getting in the way, a focused outline is often the faster system.

Move one Tana project first

This is a conversion, not a workspace transfer. Start with a project that is already a clear hierarchy, convert it to OPML, import it into TreeNote, and test it with real work. Your Tana workspace stays unchanged while you decide.
